Blocked drains, found and fixed.
A rod and a hopeful prod won't tell you why it keeps coming back. Our cameras will. Fixed-price unblocking, CCTV surveys and high-pressure jetting — the same firm your street has called since 1987.
Stop guessing.
Start looking.
We send a camera down the line and you watch with us, live on the screen — the cracked joint, the root that's grown through, the thirty years of scale. No jargon, no maybes. You see the fault the moment we do.
Every survey ends with a written report and the recorded footage — the kind of evidence insurers and conveyancers actually accept. Dad started doing surveys this way in the nineties because guessing wastes everyone's money. We haven't changed our minds.
- Faults located to the metre, on screen while you watch
- Written report suitable for insurers and house purchases
- Dated footage supplied to keep — yours, not ours
Grease, roots, wet wipes.
Gone.
A rod pokes a hole through a blockage. Water finds the hole, you think it's sorted, and three weeks later it's back — we hear that story most days. Our van-mounted jetters strip the pipe wall back to full bore, so the whole line runs clear, not just a channel through the middle.
Kitchen lines thick with fat, outside runs invaded by roots, soil stacks that have swallowed one wipe too many — jetting deals with all of it in a single visit, and we camera the line afterwards so you can see it's actually clean.
- Full-bore clean, not a poked hole that reblocks
- Van-mounted units on all 14 vans — no waiting for kit
- Safe on old clay and pitch fibre pipes — pressure set to the line
One price, agreed before we lift a rod.
The price on the phone is the price on the invoice — however long the job takes.

Five signs a blockage
is on its way.
Drains rarely block overnight. They grumble for weeks first — and caught at the grumbling stage, it's a quick fixed-price visit rather than a flooded kitchen on a Sunday night.
Ticking two or more of these? Worth a phone call. We'll tell you honestly whether it can wait, and there's no charge for the advice.

Water draining slower each weekThe sink or bath takes noticeably longer to empty than it used to.

A smell you can't placeWaste sitting in the line makes itself known long before you see it.

Water pooling by the outside gullyThe run to the main is struggling — the classic first sign of roots or fat.

Toilet water rising before it fallsIf the level climbs when you flush, the blockage is already forming.
A report your insurer
will actually accept.
Buying a house? A pre-purchase drain survey costs a fraction of what a collapsed Victorian sewer costs to dig up — and it's the one check most homebuyer surveys quietly skip. We turn reports around before your exchange date, not after it.
Making a claim? Insurers want evidence, not a plumber's word. Our surveys come with dated footage, a written findings report and a plain-English recommendation — the format loss adjusters ask for, because we asked them.

Water coming up,
not going down?
Sewage backing up won't improve by morning. One call, a real person answers, and a jetting van is moving — usually inside the hour anywhere in Southampton.
