Our Comprehensive Range of Services in Reading
Drain Jetting in Reading
Over time, grease, silt, scale and other debris can build up inside drains and restrict the flow of water. High pressure water jetting is an effective way to clear blocked drains and remove stubborn deposits from the inside of the pipe.
Our drain jetting equipment uses high pressure water to break through blockages and wash away the build up left behind. It can be used for everything from everyday household drainage problems to more difficult obstructions, helping to restore flow without relying on harsh chemicals.
Blocked Drain Unblocking in Reading
A blocked drain can go from being a minor inconvenience to a much bigger problem surprisingly quickly. Slow drainage, unpleasant smells, gurgling pipes or sewage backing up can all be signs that something isn’t right.
Our engineers are equipped to investigate and clear blocked drains throughout Reading. Whether the cause is everyday waste, grease, scale, foreign objects or a problem further along the drainage system, we’ll work to identify the root cause and restore normal flow as quickly as possible.
Blocked Toilet, Sink and Shower Solutions in Reading
A blocked toilet, slow draining sink or shower that refuses to empty properly can quickly disrupt your day. A rising toilet water level after flushing, for example, is often a clear indication that there is a blockage somewhere in the system.
Our engineers use specialist equipment to remove common obstructions such as hair, soap residue, wipes and foreign objects. We’ll aim to resolve the blockage with as little disruption as possible so you can get back to using your bathroom or kitchen normally.
Emergency Drain Repairs in Reading
Drainage emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time. A severe blockage, damaged pipework, collapsed drain or sewage entering your property may need urgent attention to limit damage and disruption.
Our emergency drainage service is available 24/7, 365 days a year. When you need an engineer quickly, our team will assess the problem and carry out the appropriate repair or clearance work to get your drainage system back into working order.
Commercial Drain Servicing in Reading
Reliable drainage is essential for commercial premises. A blocked toilet, overflowing drain or drainage failure can affect staff, customers and day to day operations, as well as creating potential hygiene issues.
We provide commercial drainage services for businesses and property managers throughout Reading, including routine servicing of urinals, sinks, traps, waste pipes and external foul drains. Planned maintenance and preventative maintenance can help identify developing problems early and reduce the risk of recurring blockages or unexpected disruption. We always aim for minimal disruption.
Residential and Commercial Drainage Solutions in Reading
Our drainage services are available for both domestic and commercial properties. From blocked toilets and slow draining sinks to clogged manholes, gullies and larger drainage systems, our team has the equipment and experience needed to deal with jobs of different sizes.
We can also provide storm drain, outside drain, and gully flushing, drain cleaning, inspections and maintenance. Our aim is not simply to deal with the immediate problem, but to leave your drainage system operating as reliably as possible.
Common Causes of Blocked Drains
- Homeowners are responsible for drains within their property boundary.
- Leaves, mud and seasonal debris can collect in external gullies, grates and drains.
- Wet wipes, sanitary products and other items that shouldn’t be flushed can create serious blockages.
- Grease, food waste and soap residue can gradually build up inside waste pipes.
- Limescale and hard water deposits can reduce the internal diameter of pipes and restrict flow.
- Tree roots can enter damaged pipework or displaced joints and create recurring blockages.
- If several toilets, sinks or other fixtures begin backing up at the same time, professional drainage help is usually recommended.
- Preventive measures include using drain guards and regular flushing with hot water.
Simple preventative maintenance, such as using drain guards and keeping unsuitable waste out of sinks and toilets, can reduce the likelihood of some blockages. Where problems keep returning, however, it’s often worth investigating the underlying cause.
Response time for emergency calls is typically within 1 hour. Our emergency drainage services aim to respond within 60 minutes.

Understanding Blocked Drains
Blocked drains can have many different causes. Sometimes the problem is a simple build up of waste or debris. In other cases, recurring blockages may be linked to tree roots, displaced joints, damaged pipework or another fault inside the drainage system.

CCTV Drain Surveys and Drain Inspections
If a drainage problem keeps coming back or the cause isn’t obvious from the surface, CCTV drain surveys can provide a much clearer idea of what is happening underground.
During a CCTV survey inspection, a specialist camera is fed through the drainage system so our engineer can inspect the inside of the pipes without unnecessary excavation. CCTV surveys can reveal problems that would otherwise remain hidden.
These can include displaced joints, damaged pipework, cracks, root ingress, obstructions and heavy build up inside waste pipes. A drain survey can also help establish where an issue is located in relation to the property boundary.
For recurring blockages, CCTV inspection is often the preferred method of investigation because it allows us to look beyond the immediate blockage and identify the root cause of the problem.
Emergency Drainage Support
Some drainage issues simply can’t be left until later. Overflowing drains, severe blockages, sewage backing up or sewage entering a home or business can create an unpleasant and potentially damaging situation.
Our emergency drainage service is available 365 days a year, giving customers across Reading and the surrounding areas effective solutions and access to drainage help when they need it.
Depending on the problem, we may use professional drain clearing equipment, high pressure jetting, CCTV diagnostics or tanker services to remove wastewater, clear an obstruction and restore flow.
Drainage Maintenance for Homes and Businesses
For homeowners, landlords, businesses and property managers, regular maintenance can be a sensible way to reduce the chance of unexpected drainage problems.
Our planned maintenance and preventative maintenance services can be tailored to the property and its drainage system. This is particularly useful at sites where grease, debris, scale or other material regularly accumulates inside drains and waste pipes.
We can also provide drainage help for systems connected to a septic tank, including investigating flow problems and advising on the appropriate servicing required.
Where recurring blockages are becoming a problem, identifying the root cause early may help avoid repeated emergency callouts and reduce the risk of more serious damage developing.
