Drain Unblocking in Bournemouth
Blocked drains disrupt daily life fast. Our engineers diagnose the cause, clear the line properly, and confirm flow on camera before leaving — across Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire, Somerset and Surrey.
What drain unblocking involves.
We start by establishing where the blockage sits — internal waste pipe, external gully, or a shared run between manholes. Clearance is then carried out by rodding or high-pressure water jetting at up to 4000 psi, chosen to suit the pipe material and the type of obstruction. Once flow is restored, a camera inspection confirms the line is genuinely clear and identifies anything, such as root ingress or a displaced joint, that would cause the blockage to return.
Signs your drain is blocked.
Slow-draining sinks, baths and toilets are usually the first indication, often accompanied by gurgling from waste pipes as air is forced past a partial blockage. Foul smells around an external gully or manhole, or wastewater surfacing on a driveway or lawn, suggest the blockage has progressed along the run. If several fixtures back up together, the problem is typically in a main or shared drain and needs professional clearance.
