DRAIN CLEANING AND UNBLOCKING

If you're dealing with blocked drains in Southend, our drain cleaning and unblocking service is here to help. We use a mix of tried-and-tested methods and modern equipment to get things flowing again, quickly and safely. From manual rodding and electro-mechanical tools to high-pressure water jetting and enzymatic cleaning, we’re equipped to handle any blockage.

Whether it's a slow-draining sink, a fully blocked toilet, or a backed-up sewer line, our team will find the problem and clear it fast. We work with both homes and businesses, and we always leave your drainage system in better shape than we found it.

CCTV CAMERA SURVEYS

Not every drainage problem is easy to see. That’s where our CCTV camera surveys come in. If you're noticing repeated blockages or unexplained smells, we’ll carry out a visual inspection of your pipes using specialist drain cameras, and no digging required.

This allows us to detect hidden issues like cracks, collapsed pipes, or tree root intrusion. Once the footage is recorded, we’ll provide you with a full report and expert recommendations. For anyone struggling with ongoing blocked drains in Southend, a CCTV survey is often the first step to finding a lasting fix.

DRAIN JETTING

Some blocked drains are too stubborn for simple methods. In those cases, our high-pressure drain jetting service is the perfect solution. Jetting blasts water through your pipes at a powerful pressure, cutting through built-up grease, scale, debris, and even small roots.

This method not only removes the blockage but also scrubs the inside of the pipe clean, helping to prevent future issues. It’s ideal for both one-off emergencies and regular maintenance, and it’s safe for most types of pipework. If you’re dealing with constant blocked drains in Southend, jetting may be just what they need.

DRAIN REPAIRS

When your drain is broken or collapsed, quick repairs are essential to prevent damage to your property. We offer reliable, affordable drain repairs for customers dealing with blocked drains in Southend that turn out to be something more serious.

Our engineers are trained to use the least disruptive method possible, whether it’s a no-dig patch repair, a full drain relining, or an excavation and replacement. After a full CCTV survey to assess the issue, we’ll talk you through the best options and carry out the work with minimal fuss. Our goal is to fix the problem properly on the first try.

Emergency Drainage Services

Blocked drains never happen at a good time. That’s why we provide 24/7 emergency drainage services to help you deal with sudden problems fast. If you're facing a flood, sewage backup, or overflowing manhole, our team will arrive quickly, fully equipped and ready to act.

We understand how stressful emergencies can be, especially when blocked drains in Southend affect your home or business. Our engineers work fast to diagnose the issue, clear the blockage, and explain what’s next. No waiting around, no unclear pricing—just reliable, local help when you need it most.

Drain Relining

If you’re dealing with damaged pipes beneath your property, full replacement isn’t always necessary. Our drain relining service offers a no-dig solution to fix cracks and corrosion from the inside. We insert a resin-coated liner into the pipe, which hardens to form a new, smooth interior surface. It’s fast, long-lasting, and far less disruptive than traditional repair methods.

For residents and businesses with blocked drains in Southend caused by structural pipe damage, drain relining is an efficient and cost-effective way to restore full flow and extend the life of your drainage system.

Blocked Drain FAQs

1. What typically causes blocked drains in Southend?

The most common causes of blocked drains in Southend include fat and grease buildup, hair, wipes or foreign objects, tree roots, and even collapsed pipes. In older Southend properties, outdated drainage systems often contribute to recurring issues. Regular maintenance and early detection can help prevent serious blockages before they cause damage.

2. Is the council responsible for blocked drains?

In most cases, if the drain blockage is located within your property boundaries, you are responsible, not the council. However, if you live in a council property or suspect the issue stems from the wider network, the council may be liable. It’s worth contacting them directly with full details.

3. What should I do first if I notice my drain is blocked?

If you see slow drainage or smell something unusual, try running hot water or using natural cleaning solutions. Avoid harsh chemicals—they can damage pipes. If the problem doesn’t improve, call our local team for professional drain unblocking. The sooner you act, the less chance there is of it turning into a major issue.

4. What should I do if a blocked drain is causing flooding?

If a blocked drain is causing flooding, stop using water where possible to limit the damage, and call our emergency drainage team immediately. We offer a 24/7 response in Southend and arrive fully equipped to remove standing water, locate the blockage, and start resolving the issue on the spot.

5. How long does it take to clear blocked drains?

Most standard drain blockages can be cleared within one to two hours of our engineer arriving on site. More complex issues may take longer, especially if a full investigation or repair is needed. Either way, we work quickly and cleanly to get your drainage system back to normal.
