Choosing Us for Your Blocked Drains in Chichester

When you get in touch with us and book a service to get your drains unblocked, you’ll be setting your system up for a fast, effective, and fully efficient service from one of our reliable, friendly drainage engineers. Each of our team members are dedicated to what they do, so you can feel confident knowing that your drains will receive the best treatment for the problem they currently have.

We’ll work out what’s wrong with your drains as soon as possible and, depending on how large or severe the blockage is, we will come up with an easy solution to get it cleared.

If the problem is too far along your pipes to be seen from any drain openings, we might begin the process by carrying out a CCTV drain survey. This is the cleanest and least intrusive way of getting accurate footage of the inside of your pipes without excavating them.

A survey will involve using a winch and cable with attached camera equipment to get the video footage and images we need. From these, we’ll be able to find the reason behind your blocked drains, wherever the problem is in your system, and come up with a professional solution to get it fixed.

What You Can Do to Keep Your Drains Clear

There are some things you can do around your property to help keep your Chichester drainage system from becoming blocked up. They may also help to save you time, money, and needless frustration that can come with arranging drain cleaning and potential repairs:

• Carrying out regular drain clearance and cleaning work around your property: this is especially important for outdoor drains that can become blocked up with mud, leaves, and silt before anyone in the property realises there’s a drain problem.
• Using strainers over drains in sinks and showers: if you catch food in your kitchen sink and soap scum and hair in your shower tray, you’ll be ensuring that less of each of these end up in your drainage system. Any debris you catch can then be put in the bin.
• Taking care with what gets flushed: only human waste and toilet paper should go down the toilet. Everything else, including sanitary pads, tampons, nappies, wet wipes, and other hygiene products should be put in a bin.

FAQs

Why do my drains keep getting blocked?

If you’re constantly having to get your drainage system unblocked in order to keep it clear, it’s highly likely that you’re not getting the whole blockage out every time. This means the issue will just keep on building itself back up whenever something other than water is flushed through your pipes. This is also why it’s important for you to make sure any drain cleaning done is thorough enough to clear out all of the blockage.

Sometimes, there may also be problems with the pipes themselves that will need to be fixed before your system can flow properly again. This might mean having CCTV surveys or inspections carried out to see if any of the sections have sunken in or have accidentally been installed backwards. There’s also a possibility that too-narrow sections have been installed that shouldn’t have been.

All of these problems will result in you having to replace the pipes.

Am I responsible for broken, blocked or burst water mains?

You’ll only be responsible for drain repair and clearance if the problem pipe is located within your property boundary. Water mains fall outside of this and are usually under the main road, so you won’t be responsible for getting these repaired. Instead, you should ask your local water company to take care of it.

You’ll need to report any problems you’re having with your water main to your water company. You can find out who you’re with online and report any issues with your mains to them on their website in a matter of minutes.
