Blocked drains in Bristol
Drain unblocking comes up in more reviews than anything else. Reviewers describe outside drains cleared in 20 to 30 minutes, including one another firm thought would need digging up, an overflowing manhole sorted on a bank holiday morning, and the area tidied afterwards. If the blockage keeps coming back, a CCTV survey finds out why.
Generally from £89, agreed on the phone first.
“Ross has now unblocked 2 of our outside drains. He has been quick to respond, helpful, polite, and very capable. He gets on with the job and does not look to make the job any bigger than it needs to be.”
Tell Ross what you're seeing
Likely cause
Outside drain or manhole overflowing
A blockage in the main drain. If the inspection chamber is full, the blockage is further along, towards the sewer.
What Ross will usually do
- Lift the inspection chamber cover to see which way the blockage lies
- Jet or rod the drain clear
- Clean and tidy the area afterwards
“One drain had already been looked at by another team who thought it would need excavation, but Ross had it clear in 20 minutes and tidied the area afterwards.”
The price is agreed on the phone first. Drains are generally cleared from £89, and anything bigger gets a fixed price before work starts.
