Keep an eye (or ear, or nose!) out for a few key issues. You might notice your sink or bath draining much slower than usual, hear gurgling noises from your plugholes or toilet, or even spot water backing up in unusual places. A foul smell coming from your drains is another big red flag that you have a blocked drain problem brewing.

Drains can get blocked for all sorts of reasons. In kitchens, it's often a build-up of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) along with food waste. Bathrooms suffer from hair, soap scum, and toiletries. Outside, leaves, silt, and even tree roots making their way into cracks can cause serious blockages. Sometimes, it’s just wear and tear or a collapsed section of the drainage pipe.

For minor blockages, a plunger or some off-the-shelf drain cleaner might offer a temporary fix. However, for persistent or severe blockages, it’s best to call in an expert. Our team has the right tools and years of experience to clear the blockage properly and diagnose any underlying problems, preventing repeat issues. Trying to force it yourself can sometimes make the problem worse or damage your pipes.

When you’re facing a blocked drain emergency, you need help fast! We offer a rapid response service, aiming to be on site within 60 minutes anywhere in our service areas, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Day or night, we’re available when you need us most.

We use a range of effective methods to clear blocked drains. For simpler blockages, traditional drain rods often do the trick. For more stubborn problems like fatbergs or tree roots, we use high-pressure drain jetting which powerfully blasts through the blockage. If we can’t immediately see the cause, our CCTV drain survey team can go in with cameras to find the exact problem and location.

Absolutely! We offer a comprehensive range of drainage services for both residential and commercial customers. Whether you run a restaurant, a hotel, an office, or a school in Wigan, Manchester, or Liverpool, our expert team is equipped to handle any commercial drainage issues quickly and efficiently, including pre-planned maintenance to keep your business running smoothly.

Our customers trust our long-standing experience.

Recurring blocked drain problems suggest there’s a deeper issue at play. This is where our CCTV drain survey service really shines. Our expert team will use cameras to thoroughly inspect your drains, identify the root cause – whether it's cracks, a collapsed section, or serious root ingress – and then recommend the best long-term solution, from no-dig repairs to full drain replacement if necessary.
