Drain Unblocking Services

What Types of Blocked Drains Do We Clear?

We clear all types of blocked drains across residential and commercial properties throughout West Yorkshire. No job is too small or too large — from a single blocked kitchen sink to a completely blocked main sewer serving a commercial premises.

• Blocked kitchen sinks and waste pipes — grease, fat, and food debris build-up
• Blocked toilets — wet wipes, sanitary products, and foreign objects
• Blocked bath and shower drains — hair, soap scum, and limescale
• Blocked external drains and gullies — leaves, silt, and debris
• Blocked main sewer lines — root ingress, collapsed sections, and heavy build-up
• Blocked commercial drains — restaurants, hotels, retail, and industrial premises
• Blocked soakaways and drainage channels
• Blocked inspection chambers and manholes

High-Pressure Water Jetting — The Most Effective Drain Clearing Method

High-pressure water jetting is the most effective and thorough method for clearing blocked drains. Unlike older methods, water jetting doesn't just break through the blockage — it completely clears the pipe walls of grease, scale, root fibres, and debris, leaving the drain clean and flowing at full capacity.

Our jetting equipment operates at pressures up to 4,000 PSI and can clear blockages in pipes from 50mm to 600mm in diameter. The high-velocity water stream cuts through even the most compacted grease deposits, dislodges tree roots, and flushes all debris downstream to the sewer. The result is a drain that flows freely and is significantly less likely to block again in the near future.

For commercial kitchens, restaurants, and food businesses where grease build-up is a constant challenge, we recommend scheduling regular jetting as part of a planned maintenance programme — typically every 3–6 months — to keep drains clear and compliant with environmental health requirements.

When Should You Call a Drain Unblocking Professional?

Many people try to clear a blocked drain themselves before calling a professional — and for a minor sink blockage, a plunger or drain cleaner can sometimes help. However, there are clear signs that you need a professional drainage engineer rather than a DIY solution:

• Multiple drains are blocked or draining slowly at the same time — this indicates a main sewer blockage
• Water is backing up into other fixtures when you flush the toilet or run the sink
• There are foul smells coming from drains inside or outside the property
• You can see water pooling around external drain covers or gullies
• The blockage has returned within a short time of being cleared previously
• You hear gurgling sounds from drains or toilets
• There is visible sewage overflow in your garden or driveway

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, call us on 07958 784011. We're available 24/7 and will get to you as quickly as possible.
