Blocked drain clearing using rods and high-pressure jetting.
* Estimates only, not a quote — typical figures from recent jobs. Your engineer confirms the exact price before any work starts.
A blocked drain is never a good time — and it's rarely just 'the sink'. Blockages sit somewhere along the run, and guessing wrong wastes your money and their time. Our matched drain specialists clear blockages properly, and if it's a recurring problem, they'll tell you honestly whether you need jetting, CCTV or a repair.
Tell us where the blockage is and what goes down the drain — the answers determine the right fix the first time.
Assessment: where the blockage is, how deep, and whether multiple fittings are affected.
Clearing: rods, plungers or high-pressure jetting — matched to the blockage type.
Verification: running water through to confirm the drain truly flows.
Recurring-blockage advice: honest guidance on CCTV surveys and repairs before you pay out again in a month.
Wipe pans with kitchen paper and bin it. Never pour oil or fat down the sink — it sets in the pipes.
Pee, poo and paper. Wipes (even 'flushable'), cotton buds and sanitary items belong in the bin.
A £5 hair catcher in the shower and bath saves the most common bathroom blockage.
A weekly kettle of hot water down kitchen and bathroom wastes keeps grease and soap moving.
As a landlord you must keep the property's water, heating, sanitary and drainage systems in good working order and fix them promptly when they fail. You're responsible for structural repairs, the boiler and heating system, plumbing and electrics. Tenants should report faults in writing — and you should respond fast, because a small leak left unattended becomes a big claim.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act and L8 guidance, landlords must assess and control the risk of Legionella — typically by ensuring water systems are properly maintained, flushing little-used outlets, and keeping records. Showers, dead legs and cold-water tanks are the usual hotspots. Your engineer can advise on a simple written risk assessment.
