Fix blocked drains fast

It usually starts with a little gurgle in the pipes, and before you know it, you're looking at a sink that refuses to drain. Most homeowners we speak to have already tried every supermarket chemical under the sun, but sometimes you just need professional help. We tackle everything from fat and grease build-up in kitchen pipes to the classic 'too much toilet paper' scenario. We're Stockport drainage experts who use the latest tech to clear the path, making sure your home is back to normal in no time. If you're dealing with a foul water backup in the garden or a shower that's turned into a foot bath, give us a shout. We're used to the messy stuff so you don't have to be, and we'll always leave your place as clean as we found it.

Powerful jetting for tough clogs

Sometimes a drain rod just isn't enough to shift the really stubborn stuff. That's where our high-pressure water jetting comes in. Our engineers are WJA certified, which is a fancy way of saying we've been properly trained to use high-powered water jets safely and effectively. It's brilliant for blasting away tree roots that have snuck into your pipes or clearing out years of scale build-up. Think of it like a professional deep clean for the inside of your drainage system. It doesn't just poke a hole through the blockage; it scours the pipe walls to help prevent the problem from coming back next month. It's a fast, efficient, and environmentally friendly way to get your drains back to peak performance.

Smart CCTV drain surveys

Ever wondered what's actually going on under your floorboards or driveway? Instead of guessing or digging experimental holes, we send a high-tech camera down there to take a look. If you're buying a new home in Stockport or Cheadle, a homebuyer drain survey is a total lifesaver. It can spot hidden cracks, root intrusion, or even collapsed sections before you sign on the dotted line. We provide a full structural report that's clear and easy to understand, often saving people thousands in unexpected repair costs. It's also the best way to diagnose why a specific drain keeps blocking up every few weeks. No more guesswork, just honest answers and a clear plan to fix the root cause.

Trenchless repairs save your driveway

The thought of having your garden or driveway dug up is enough to make anyone's heart sink. Imagine your lovely paved drive being jackhammered just to reach one cracked pipe. Luckily, technology has come a long way. We specialise in "no-dig" drain lining and patch repairs. Essentially, we insert a clever resin-soaked liner into the damaged pipe and inflate it. Once it sets, it forms a brand-new, tough-as-nails pipe inside the old one. It's faster, cheaper, and means your driveway stays exactly as it is. Of course, if a pipe has completely collapsed, we can handle the excavation too. We'll even sort out the council streetworks permits if we need to work in the road, managing the whole process from start to finish.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What counts as a drainage emergency?

+

If wastewater is backing up into your home, you can’t use your toilets, or you have a burst water main causing a flood, that’s an emergency. We offer rapid call-outs across Macclesfield to get these issues sorted immediately.

Are blocked drains my responsibility or the water company’s?

+

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’s often the responsibility of United Utilities. We can help you work this out during a site visit.

How much does a CCTV drain survey cost in Macclesfield?

+

The cost depends on the size of the property and how much detail you need. A basic look to find a blockage is different from a full written report for a home purchase. Call us for a quick quote based on what you need.

Why should I choose pipe relining over digging?

+

Pipe relining is almost always the better option if the pipe is still structurally sound. It saves you the cost of re-turfing your garden or re-paving your driveway, and the new lining is often stronger than the original pipe.

Can you fix low water pressure?

+

Yes. Low pressure is often caused by old, narrow lead pipes or a leak on your supply line. We can check for leaks and, if needed, replace your old pipes with modern ones to boost the flow to your home.
