A blocked drain announces itself: toilets that will not clear, gullies backing up in the yard, that unmistakable smell. Most blockages are caused by the usual suspects, fat and grease, wipes, roots that have found a joint, or a pipe defect that has finally caught enough debris to close the bore.

Dairy country means dispersed farmsteads and small villages, many never connected to a public sewer. Around Market Drayton it is entirely normal for a property to run on a decades-old septic tank, and the area has its share of cesspits too, installed where ground or watercourses ruled anything else out.

We clear blockages with high-pressure water jetting, which cuts through grease and roots and washes the debris away rather than just punching a hole through it, so the drain is properly clear rather than temporarily relieved. Rods still have their place for simple, close blockages, and we carry both.

Access and practicalities around Market Drayton

The country between the villages is crossed by narrow lanes busy with farm traffic, and many properties are reached through working farmyards. We are used to working around milking times, moving stock and muddy gateways, and we plan tanker access with the farmer rather than against them.

What the service includes

  • High-pressure water jetting of foul and surface water drains
  • Blocked toilets, sinks, gullies, soil stacks and manholes
  • Descaling and root cutting with the appropriate jetting heads
  • Camera checks after clearing where a defect is suspected
  • Preventive jetting programmes for properties and businesses with known problem runs

Drain Unblocking: common questions

How quickly can you get to a blocked drain?

Usually same day within our Shropshire coverage area, and we prioritise blockages causing internal flooding or affecting the only toilet in the house.

Is jetting safe for old pipes?

In experienced hands, yes. Pressure and jetting heads are chosen to suit the pipe material and condition, and older clay or pitch fibre lines are treated with appropriate care.

The drain blocks every few months. Is that normal?

No. A healthy drain should not block on a schedule. Repeat blockages almost always mean a defect or a root mass in the line, and a CCTV survey will show exactly what and where it is.
