High-Pressure Water Jetting

When it comes to unblocking pipes, we nearly always go for water jetting, it just does the trick. It’s quick, powerful, and sorts out most of the usual problems. With jetting gear, we send pressure down the pipe and clear out grease, old food, hair, and whatever else has built up. It’s even strong enough to take on tree roots, much stronger than using rods for the hard jobs.

CCTV Drain Surveys in Poplar

When a blockage isn’t straightforward or difficult to diagnose, a CCTV drain survey provides a detailed inspection of your underground infrastructure. Rather than relying on digging or trial and error, we navigate with high-definition cameras that move inside your system, delivering a continuous feed to our engineers. This process allows us to spot issues such as fractures, collapsed pipework, root ingress, or excess residue. With this footage, we can pinpoint the true source of the problem and recommend the right course of action.

Signs You Have a Blocked Drain

Sure, some drainage problems hit you right in the face. But most start small. Spot the early signs and you’ll stay ahead of the problem. Check out this list of common warning signs if you think your drains might be playing up.

Water Draining Slowly

Water not moving? Any fixture, it’s the first sign of a blockage. In the kitchen, it’s fat and food. In the bathroom, the usual suspects. Don’t wait. Get it looked at.

Unblocked Sink

Unpleasant Smells

That nasty scent near the drain? That’s not just something in the air, it’s gunk building up, starting to rot. Food, grease, even sewage can get caught up. If you’re picking up a stink, don’t ignore it. It means a problem is on the move, and it’s better to deal with it now.

Gurgling Sounds From Pipes

If your drains start making weird noises, it usually means air’s getting trapped because water’s hitting a blockage. That often means a clog down the line. If your pipes are making odd bubbling noises, it’s probably time to have it looked at.

what causes blocked drains

Water Backing Up

A really clear sign your drain’s blocked is when water rises back. If you see that, it’s a good idea to get it looked at before long before it turns into a bigger mess.

Toilet Flushing Poorly

If your toilet isn’t flushing right or takes ages to fill back up, there might be a problem in the pipe. It’s often down to things that shouldn’t have been flushed, like wet wipes, sanitary bits, or just a wad of tissue.

Overflowing Outdoor Drains

If you notice water spilling from external drains during or after heavy rain, the issue may extend beyond simple surface runoff. A minor or full underground blockage could be disrupting flow, causing water to back up. Left ignored, this overflow can lead to erosion, cracking, or structural issues. Prompt professional assessment is essential to prevent further complications.

Multiple Fixtures Affected at Once

Multiple drains slowing down? That’s not a minor fault. If toilets, sinks, and your washer are all affected, the blockage is probably further down. Plunging won’t solve it. You need a proper look and jet gear to clear it properly.

Damp Patches or Mould

Sometimes it’s not easy to tell there’s a drain problem until you spot wet spots on the floor or walls. You might get mould popping up where it normally wouldn’t, or smell something odd near the kitchen units or along the skirting boards. That’s often a sign something’s gone wrong out of sight.

    Garden sorted, no more flooding.

    Cheers to Clark Drainage for getting our garden sorted after that downpour. Great job. We’d tried a few things ourselves with no luck, but they came in, identified the issue quickly, and had the drainage working perfectly again.

    Quick turnaround and sorted fast.

    The lads came out next day and fixed the issue in half an hour. It had been bothering us for weeks, so to see it sorted that quickly was honestly a huge relief.

    Did it right first time.

    We’d had other companies round who couldn’t fix it. Clark Drainage had it sorted in one visit. The difference in professionalism and competence was night and day. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish.

    Proper pride in their work.

    It’s not glamorous work but they do it with a smile and real pride. Can’t say I’ve ever seen someone so happy clearing a drain, but they made the whole thing stress-free and even a bit fun.
