Professional drain unblocking using high-pressure water jetting in Macclesfield.

Why choose I Dig Drains and Water Mains? We provide rapid, reliable drainage solutions across Cheshire. From emergency unblocking and CCTV surveys to expert pipe repairs, we are the local team you can trust.

Is your drain giving you grief?

Most homeowners we chat to in Romiley tell us the same thing: they knew something was wrong but hoped it would just clear itself. Have you heard a strange 'glug-glug' sound after pulling the plug? Or perhaps you've seen water pooling around a manhole in the garden? These are the classic signs of a blockage building up. Whether it is a 'fatberg' caused by years of cooking grease, or tree roots that have found their way into your pipes near the Peak Forest Canal, we've seen it all. Dealing with it early usually means a quick fix rather than an expensive emergency later on.

Getting things flowing with high-pressure jetting

Sometimes a set of traditional rods just won't cut it, especially with stubborn blockages or scale build-up. That's where our high-pressure water jetting comes in. We use professional-grade kit that blasts through obstructions using nothing but water, which is far safer for your pipes than harsh chemicals. It is the most effective way to clear out grease, silt, and debris, leaving your drains as clean as the day they were laid. Our engineers are WJA certified, so you can rest easy knowing we are using the right pressure for your specific pipework, whether it's an old clay pot or modern plastic.

Stop guessing with a CCTV drain survey

Ever feel like you are paying to unblock the same drain every six months? If a blockage keeps coming back, there is usually an underlying reason like a cracked joint or root intrusion. Instead of guessing, we send a state-of-the-art camera down the pipe to see exactly what is happening. Our CCTV drain surveys are also a lifesaver for folks buying a new home in Romiley. The last thing you want after moving in is to discover a collapsed drain under your new extension. We provide a full report and clear footage so you know exactly what you are dealing with before you sign on the dotted line.

Fixing leaky water mains and lead pipes

It isn't just the dirty water we handle; we are also experts in the fresh stuff. If you have noticed a damp patch on your driveway or your water pressure has suddenly dropped, you might have a leak on your main supply pipe. As WIAPS-approved plumbers, we specialise in water main repairs and lead pipe replacement. Many older properties in Stockport still have original lead pipes, which can be a bit of a worry for health and water quality. We can replace these with modern, durable MDPE piping, often using 'no-dig' technology to keep your garden and driveway looking tidy.

Exposed underground drain pipe with root intrusion during excavation in Macclesfield

No-dig repairs for your peace of mind

The word 'drain repair' often makes people think of diggers tearing up the lawn, but it doesn't have to be that way. Whenever possible, we use 'no-dig' patch lining. Imagine we are creating a brand-new, tough pipe inside your old, damaged one without ever lifting a spade. It's faster, cheaper, and causes way less mess. Of course, if a pipe is completely collapsed, we can handle the excavation too. From getting the right permits for streetworks to making sure the ground is reinstated perfectly afterwards, we take care of the whole lot from start to finish.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our drainage and water main services in Cheshire

How much does it cost for drain unblocking in Macclesfield?

+

The price usually depends on how bad the block is and what tools we need to use. We always give you a clear, upfront quote before we start any work, so there are no nasty surprises when the job is done.

What are the signs that I need emergency drain clearance?

+

If water is backing up into your house, your toilets won't flush, or you can see sewage overflowing from a manhole outside, you need to call us straight away. These issues can cause damage and are a health risk, so they need fixing fast.

Who is responsible for fixing a blocked drain?

+

Usually, you are responsible for the drains inside your property boundary that only serve your house. If a pipe is shared with a neighbour or is outside your boundary, it often falls under the local water company, like United Utilities. If you aren't sure, we can help you figure it out during an inspection.

Can you fix a drain without digging up my driveway?

+

In many cases, yes. We use patch lining and full-length relining to fix cracks and holes from the inside. This "no-dig" method is a great way to repair your drainage system without the mess and expense of traditional digging.

Why should I get a CCTV drain survey before buying a house?

+

The last thing you want after moving into a new home is a huge bill for a collapsed drain. A survey lets you see the condition of the pipes before you sign the contract. If there are problems, you can ask the seller to fix them or lower the price.

How do I stop my drains from blocking again?

+

The best way is to be careful about what goes down them. Avoid pouring fat or oil down the sink, and never flush wet wipes or nappies. Regular maintenance, like a quick water jetting every few years, also helps keep everything running smoothly.
