Drainage repair excavation with new pipework and inspection chamber in Macclesfield

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.

Sorting out blocked drains quickly

There's never a good time for a blocked toilet or a sink that refuses to drain. It usually happens just as you're heading out or when you've got the family coming over for Sunday dinner. If you've noticed that 'glug-glug' sound or a bit of a pong coming from the drains, it's best to act fast before it becomes a proper emergency. We use high-pressure water jetting to blast through everything from stubborn fatbergs to those pesky tree roots that have found a way into your pipework. It's a clean, efficient way to get your pipes back to their best without any fuss. Our specialist drain unblocking is designed to get your life back to normal with minimal disruption and no hidden costs.

CCTV surveys for peace of mind

Buying a new home in Lees is exciting, but the last thing you want is a hidden drain collapse waiting to cost you a fortune. Our CCTV drain surveys are like an X-ray for your plumbing. We send a high-tech camera down the pipes to see exactly what's going on, providing you with a full structural report. It's not just for homebuyers, though. If you've got a recurring blockage that keeps coming back like a bad penny, a camera inspection will find the cause, whether it's a displaced joint or a cracked section of pipe. It's the smartest way to diagnose Oldham drainage issues without any unnecessary digging or guessing games.

Trenchless repairs save your garden

Remember the days when a broken pipe meant digging a massive trench through your lovely lawn or pristine driveway? Those days are mostly gone. We specialise in pipe relining and patch repairs—often called 'no-dig' technology. Think of it like a new pipe being grown inside the old one. We use a resin-infused liner that hardens to create a seamless, tough finish. It's faster, cheaper, and means you won't have a mountain of soil sitting in your garden for a week. Of course, if an excavation is truly needed, we're fully equipped to handle that too, including any local council paperwork and streetworks permits if we need to work in the road.

Expert water main repairs and upgrades

A lot of the older properties around Lees still rely on lead water pipes. While they've lasted a long time, they can lead to poor water pressure and, more importantly, health concerns for your family. We're WIAPS-approved specialists, which means we're qualified to perform lead pipe replacement using modern, safe MDPE pipework. If you've noticed a sudden drop in pressure or a damp patch on your driveway that won't go away, you might have a burst pipe. We offer a rapid response to trace and fix leaks, ensuring your home's water supply is back to normal as quickly as possible. We also sort out stubborn stop taps and valves that have seized up over time.

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.
