Drain Unblocking Services Across Wiltshire

When a drain starts playing up, it's rarely a problem that fixes itself, and leaving it can mean more disruption further down the line.

You might first spot water draining more slowly than usual, a gurgling plughole, or an odd smell near a sink or drain cover. Left unattended, this can turn into wastewater overflowing or backing up into the property.

Plumbco handles drain unblocking throughout Wiltshire, working with homeowners, landlords and businesses in Swindon, Salisbury, Chippenham, Trowbridge, Devizes, Marlborough and the surrounding areas.

Our engineers deal with everyday one-off blockages as well as trickier, recurring problems that need a proper look further into the system.

Wiltshire Drainage Problems We Deal With:

  • Blocked drains
  • Blocked outside drains
  • Emergency blocked drains
  • Blocked toilets
  • Blocked kitchen sinks
  • Blocked bathroom sinks
  • Slow-draining sinks and drains
  • Overflowing drains
  • Recurring blockages
  • Drain clearance
  • Drain jetting and rodding
  • CCTV drain surveys
  • Drain repairs
  • Underground drainage problems

Blocked Drain Clearance Across Wiltshire

Blockages rarely have just one cause, which is why pinning down exactly what's restricting the pipe matters before any clearance work begins.

Indoors, blockages usually build up from grease, food waste, hair, soap, wipes or sanitary products entering the system. Outdoors, leaves, mud, silt and general debris are the usual suspects, and where a drain keeps blocking, tree roots, a shifted joint or a damaged pipe further along could be the reason.

Plumbco carries out professional drain clearance across Wiltshire, matching the method to the blockage in front of us.

Drain Rodding

Drain Rodding

Drain Rodding Rods are used to physically break through or shift an obstruction inside drains that can be reached directly. Whether rodding is the right call depends on where the blockage sits and what it's made of, so our engineer will assess it before deciding how to proceed.
High Pressure water jetting

Drain Jetting

Drain Jetting For grease, silt and long-standing built-up deposits, high-pressure jetting usually does a more thorough job. Water is fired through the pipe under pressure, breaking the deposits apart and flushing the loosened material through the system.
CCTV Drain

CCTV Drain Inspection

CCTV Drain Inspection When a drain won't stay clear, or the cause isn't obvious, a camera survey gives a proper view inside the pipework. Our CCTV equipment can locate the obstruction and pick up on any damage that might be contributing to the problem.
drain repair

Drain Repairs

Drain Repairs Clearing the blockage won't necessarily fix things for good if the pipe itself is damaged. Where our inspection turns up a defect, we'll talk you through what's been found and the repair options available.

24/7 Emergency Drain Unblocking in Wiltshire

Blocked drains have an unhelpful habit of striking at the worst possible time.

If sewage is backing up, an outside drain has overflowed, or a toilet can no longer be used safely, that's not something to sit on until the morning.

Plumbco offers 24/7 emergency drain unblocking across Wiltshire for exactly these moments.

Where several fixtures are affected at once, the fault is often further along the drainage run rather than confined to one sink or toilet, and our engineers can trace it back.

Is Your Drainage Problem an Emergency?

Call us straight away if you're facing:
  • Sewage or wastewater backing up indoors
  • An overflowing outside drain
  • A toilet that is filling towards the rim
  • Water returning through a bath, shower or sink
  • Several blocked drains around the property
  • A strong smell of sewage
  • Standing water around an external drain
  • A serious blockage affecting use of the property

Blocked Toilet Unblocking Across Wiltshire

A blocked toilet can put a home, workplace or commercial premises out of action almost straight away.

Look out for the water rising higher than usual after flushing, waste draining away sluggishly, or an unusual gurgling sound from the pan.

If water starts to come back up rather than drain away, stop flushing, repeated attempts only make an overflow more likely.

A toilet that keeps blocking, even after clearing, can point to a problem further down the drainage system, which our engineers can investigate properly.

Plumbco provides blocked toilet unblocking across Wiltshire, including stubborn and repeat cases.

What Causes a Blocked Toilet?

Common causes include:
  • Large amounts of toilet paper
  • Wet wipes
  • Sanitary products
  • Items accidentally flushed down the toilet
  • Accumulated waste
  • An obstruction further along the drainage pipe
Toilet Unblocking
Sink

Blocked Sink Unblocking in Wiltshire

A sink draining more slowly than it used to is often the first sign that material is building up inside the waste pipe.

Left alone, the space inside the pipe keeps shrinking until the water either struggles to drain or stops moving altogether.

Plumbco carries out sink unblocking across Wiltshire, covering both kitchen and bathroom drainage problems.

Blocked Kitchen Sink

Fats, oils, grease and leftover food are the usual culprits behind kitchen sink blockages.

Grease cools and sticks to the pipe walls, trapping more debris as it goes and gradually choking off the flow.

Blocked Bathroom Sink

Bathroom blockages are typically down to hair, soap residue, toothpaste and other personal care products building up together inside the waste pipe.

Warning Signs of a Blocked Sink

Signs of a Blocked Sink
  • Water draining more slowly than normal
  • Gurgling from the plughole
  • Persistent unpleasant odours
  • Standing water in the basin
  • Water backing up through another drainage outlet

Outside Drain Unblocking in Wiltshire

Outside drains have to cope with more than wastewater alone.

Leaves, mud, silt and general debris regularly work their way into gullies and drains, gradually narrowing the pipe until water starts pooling or spilling over.

Underground, things can get more complicated, with tree roots, shifted joints and damaged pipework all capable of causing a drain to keep failing.

Where the same outside drain keeps blocking, it's worth investigating further.

Plumbco carries out outside drain unblocking across Wiltshire, tracking down and clearing obstructions in external drainage.

How Do I Know My Outside Drain Is Blocked?

Typical signs include:
  • Water remaining around the drain
  • An external gully overflowing
  • Strong sewage smells outside
  • Wastewater appearing around the drain cover
  • Slow drainage elsewhere in the building
  • A problem that returns soon after clearance

CCTV Drain Survey Screen

CCTV Drain Surveys in Wiltshire

Clearing the same blockage time and again is frustrating, and it doesn't always deal with the actual cause.

A CCTV drain survey lets our engineer see inside sections of pipe that would otherwise mean digging to inspect.

A camera is fed through the drainage system, giving a clear picture of the pipe's condition and helping pinpoint where attention is needed.

What Can a CCTV Survey Find?

CCTV equipment can help identify:
  • Cracks within drainage pipes
  • Collapsed sections of drainage
  • Misaligned or displaced pipe joints
  • Tree root intrusion
  • Heavy scale deposits
  • Foreign objects and other obstructions
  • Structural deterioration
  • Areas where blockages repeatedly form
Knowing exactly where the fault sits helps our engineer recommend the right next step.

When Might I Need a CCTV Survey?

A camera survey is particularly useful when:
  • The same drain repeatedly becomes blocked
  • There is no obvious explanation for a drainage problem
  • Normal clearance methods have not located the cause
  • Damage to the drainage system is suspected
  • Tree roots could be entering the pipework
  • You need to investigate the condition of an underground drain
