Why FS Group

Drain engineers for long gardens and paved drives

Our engineers cover Penge and Beckenham through Bromley town to Orpington and Biggin Hill. It is London's largest borough, with Victorian terraces in the north and detached homes in the south. Long garden runs and big trees go together, so roots are a common call. Where a drive sits over the pipe, relining saves digging it up.

First time using this company for our restaurant, and will definitely be a returning customer. Our engineer Jordan was helpful, proffesional. He located our blockages to determine the route and had written out a descriptive report for our records. Definitely will use again.

The plumber Mitch who came round to sort out the repair was very polite and was able to fix the repair quickly and to my full satisfaction. He even offered to request an investigation into the continuing problem with my drains. I can only highly recommend his professionalism and thank him for his kindness.

I was very happy with the service. I got a next-day appointment to deal with blocked kitchen sink drainage. I had a 4-hour slot, and agreed a 30-minute advance warning of arrival time. I was alerted, as agreed (by text, e-mail AND phone call!). The friendly engineer (William) arrived on time and did a very quick and efficient job. I'd definitely use FS Drainage Services again.

What we see most

The drain problems we fix most often in Bromley

Long garden runs

Homes in Chislehurst, Petts Wood and Bickley often have long runs to the sewer. Blocks can sit far from the house.

Mature trees

Leafy roads across the borough bring roots into older clay pipes. We cut them out and can reline the pipe.

Drives and patios over drains

Many Bromley homes have a paved drive over the drain. Relining a cracked pipe means the drive stays where it is.

Shared runs in Penge

Victorian terraces in Penge and Beckenham often share one drain behind the row.

High street kitchens

Cooking fat from restaurants along Bromley High Street coats the shared drains and slowly blocks them.

Leaves in gullies

Leafy roads in Bickley and Hayes drop leaves into outside gullies, and the water has nowhere to go.

Questions we hear from Penge to Biggin Hill

Do you cover Orpington and Biggin Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole borough, from Penge and Beckenham to Orpington and Biggin Hill.
The blockage is somewhere in the garden. Can you find it?
Yes. We push a camera along the run and mark the spot from above, so any digging is in the right place.
Can you fix a cracked drain under my drive?
Often, yes, by relining it from inside. A camera survey first shows whether the pipe is suitable.
Do you clean up after the job?
Yes. Engineers clear and wash down the area, and waste is carried away under our waste carrier licence.
What does it cost to clear a blocked drain in a long garden?
For a standard unblock you pay from £55.00 + VAT per half hour, between 8am and 6pm on a weekday. Jetting, and work in the evening, at weekends or overnight, is priced on its own.
Is there a ULEZ charge to come to Biggin Hill?
No. ULEZ is never added to the bill, and neither is a call-out fee or an emergency premium.
How soon can you reach an emergency in Orpington?
Our aim for emergencies is to reach you within two hours.
Are drain repairs in Beckenham guaranteed?
Yes. Repairs come with our 6-month workmanship guarantee. T&Cs apply.
Can you film the old clay pipe at my West Wickham semi?
Yes. A CCTV survey records the pipe, and survey jobs end with a written report.
