Complete Drainage Services

We recognise that no two customers will have the same requirements. That’s why we offer a complete range of drainage services designed to cover every stage of a drainage problem, from an urgent blockage through to full repair or replacement. Below is an overview of our core services.

Emergency Drain Unblocking

When a blocked outside drain, backed-up wastewater, blocked toilet or overflowing drainage needs urgent attention, our emergency drain unblocking service investigates and clears the blockage as quickly as possible, helping to limit further disruption or damage to the property.

Drain Clearance

Blocked or slow-flowing drains are often caused by a build-up of grease, fat, silt, scale, waste or general debris inside the pipework. Our drain clearance service removes these blockages using professional equipment suited to the type and severity of the problem.

Drain Repairs

Cracked, leaking or otherwise damaged drainage doesn't always need replacing. Our drain repairs service addresses structurally compromised sections, with the right repair method depending on the extent and location of the damage.

Drainage Installation

From new residential developments to commercial projects and property renovations, Plumbco can install new drainage systems designed around the specific requirements of the site.

Drain Replacement

Some drainage problems go beyond clearance or repair. Collapsed drains, severe structural damage, ageing systems, repeated failures or major pipe displacement can all mean a section of drainage needs replacing rather than fixing.

Drain Jetting & Rodding

Different blockages call for different clearance methods. Our drainage engineers use professional drain jetting and drain rodding equipment, selecting the appropriate approach based on the nature and location of the blockage.

Septic Tank Installation

For properties not connected to mains drainage, the team here at Plumbco works to install septic tanks and associated drainage systems suited to the property and its surroundings.

Pitch Fibre Drains

Older pitch fibre drainage can become distorted, blistered or structurally compromised over time. Our engineers assess the condition of pitch fibre drains and recommend the most appropriate repair or replacement option.

Expert Tree Root Removal

Tree roots can enter drainage systems through joints, cracks and damaged sections, gradually causing blockages or structural problems. We carry out specialist investigation and root removal to resolve the issue at its source.

CCTV Drain Surveys

A CCTV drain survey uses specialist camera equipment to inspect drainage pipes without excavation, identifying cracks, collapses, displaced joints, root intrusion, obstructions and the causes of recurring blockages. It is often the fastest way to see what's happening underground.

Drain Relining & Patch System Repair

For some damaged drains, trenchless repair methods such as relining or patch systems offer a less disruptive alternative to full excavation. These options aren't suitable for every situation, so our engineers will confirm whether relining is the right fit after assessment.

Why Choose Plumbco for Drainage Services?

We are a drainage company built around correctly diagnosing problems before recommending a solution. Our drainage engineers work across both domestic and commercial drainage, using specialist equipment including CCTV inspection cameras alongside drain clearance and repair tools.

As drainage contractors covering a broad regional area, we aim to give every customer a clear picture of the problem and a straightforward quotation process.

Got a Blocked Drain or Drainage Problem?

Blocked drains rarely go away on their own. Water draining slowly, toilets failing to flush properly, water backing up, an outside drain overflowing, gurgling sounds, bad smells, standing water or repeated blockages are all signs worth acting on, especially if several fixtures block at once.

Not every blocked drain has the same cause, so correctly diagnosing the problem matters before deciding on the fix. As a blocked drain specialist, we offer a full drain unblocking service covering everything from a single blocked outside drain to more complex issues affecting multiple fixtures, with the right blocked drain clearance carried out to get things flowing again.

Blocked Toilets, Sinks and Household Drains

Blocked toilets and sinks are among the most common household drainage problems, and our unblocking service is on hand whenever you need a toilet or sink cleared quickly. A blocked sink, whether it's a blocked kitchen sink or a blocked bathroom sink, is usually caused by a build-up of grease, food waste, soap residue or hair, while a blocked toilet can often point to something further within the drainage system.

In both cases, if the problem keeps returning, it's usually a sign the cause lies deeper within the drainage network. Our engineers identify where the blockage sits before carrying out the necessary repair, whether that's blocked toilet repair or blocked sink repair, so the problem doesn't simply come back.

Finding the Cause of Recurring Drainage Problems

Repeatedly clearing the same drain without understanding why it keeps blocking often fails to solve the underlying problem. Recurring blockages can be caused by tree roots, cracked pipework, collapsed drains, displaced joints, scale, fat and grease build-up, poor pipe alignment, foreign objects or general structural deterioration.

Where a drain keeps blocking, proper inspection matters more than repeated clearance. A CCTV drain survey allows our drainage engineers to see exactly what's happening inside the pipework, so any necessary repairs, relining or replacement can be carried out with confidence rather than guesswork. As drainage contractors, we aim to fix the cause, not just the symptom.

Drainage FAQs

We offer fixed prices for our drainage services, so you'll know the cost upfront before any work begins, with no hidden extras. There are no call-out fees either, so getting an engineer to assess the problem won't cost you anything extra. Exact pricing depends on the service required, which our team can confirm once they understand the issue.

Because we offer 24/7 availability, we can respond to drainage problems whenever they happen, including outside normal working hours. For urgent issues like overflowing drains or backed-up wastewater, our emergency drain unblocking service aims to reach you as quickly as possible to limit further disruption. Contact our team to discuss availability for your specific situation.

Not always. A CCTV drain survey is most useful when a drain keeps blocking or the cause isn't obvious, as it lets engineers see inside the pipework without excavation. For straightforward blockages, our team can often clear the drain directly. We'll recommend a survey only where it will genuinely help identify the underlying problem.

Avoid using the affected sink, toilet or drain where possible, as this can make the blockage worse or cause overflow. Don't attempt to use chemical drain cleaners, as these can sometimes damage pipework. If it's a genuine emergency, such as sewage backing up, turn off any related water supply and contact our team straight away.

Our drainage engineers cover a broad regional area, working across both domestic and commercial properties. Coverage can vary depending on the specific service required, particularly for larger jobs like drainage installation or septic tank work. The quickest way to confirm whether we cover your location is to get in touch with our team directly.
