Drainage repair excavation with new pipework and inspection chamber in Macclesfield

Expert Drainage Services in Macclesfield & Cheshire

Reliable solutions for blocked drains, CCTV surveys, and water main repairs. Choose I Dig Drains and Water Mains for fully certified, fast, and transparent service across Cheshire.

Clear blocked drains without the fuss

Most of us don't think about our drains until they stop working. Whether it's a build-up of fats and oils in the kitchen or the kids have flushed something they shouldn't have, a blockage can bring your home to a standstill. We use high-pressure water jetting to blast through even the most stubborn clogs. It’s much more effective than just poking at it with a rod, as the water scours the pipe walls clean, helping to prevent the problem from coming back next month. If you’ve noticed a nasty smell or water is pooling around your outdoor gullies, give us a bell and we'll get it sorted before it turns into a bigger mess.

Smart CCTV surveys for peace of mind

Ever wondered what’s actually going on inside your pipes? If you keep getting the same blockage in the same spot, there’s usually an underlying reason—perhaps a cracked joint or some thirsty tree roots finding their way in. Our CCTV drain surveys take the guesswork out of the equation. We send a high-tech camera down the line to get a clear look at the situation, providing you with a full structural report. This is particularly handy if you’re buying a new home in Staffordshire; the last thing you want is to move into your dream house in Cheadle or Biddulph only to find a collapsed sewer pipe lurking under the driveway.

Fixing pipes with no-dig technology

The old way of fixing a broken pipe involved digging a massive trench through your garden or ripping up your lovely block-paving. Thankfully, we can usually avoid all that. Using 'no-dig' or trenchless technology, we can install a resin-impregnated liner—basically a new pipe inside the old one. We call it patch lining for smaller spots, and it’s a total game-changer. It’s faster, cleaner, and often much cheaper than traditional excavation. You get a permanent, structural repair without the need for a mini-digger in your front garden. Of course, if a pipe has completely collapsed, we’re fully equipped to dig and replace it safely, handling all the council permits if we need to work near the road.

Upgrade your water main and lead pipes

Are you struggling with poor water pressure or worried about old lead pipes in an older Staffordshire property? As WIAPS-approved plumbers, we specialise in replacing those outdated lead supply lines with modern blue MDPE pipework. Not only does this often improve your flow, but it’s also much healthier for your family. From fixing a burst pipe in the middle of winter to replacing a seized internal stop tap, we handle the 'clean' water side of things just as expertly as the drainage. We can even help you trace a hidden leak that’s causing a damp patch you just can't explain.

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.
