An overflowing or completely blocked drain needs more than a temporary solution. When wastewater cannot travel through the system properly, pressure can build behind the obstruction and cause problems elsewhere. Toilets may stop flushing, sinks can empty slowly and external drains can begin overflowing.
Drains Are Us provides emergency drain unblocking across Solihull using professional clearance equipment suited to stubborn drainage obstructions. We focus on restoring normal flow efficiently and can investigate further when there are signs that damage, roots or persistent deposits are contributing to repeated blockages.
1. Inspect the Problem
We assess the symptoms and drainage layout to identify where the blockage is likely to have developed.
2. Break Down the Obstruction
Suitable clearance equipment is used according to the nature and location of the blockage.
3. Flush the Drainage System
High pressure water jetting may be used to remove stubborn deposits and improve internal pipe flow.
4. Identify Hidden Causes
Where a blockage is recurring, CCTV investigation can help identify structural defects or other problems within the drain.
5. Confirm Normal Flow
After clearance, we check that wastewater is moving properly through the affected section before completing the work.
