Blocked drains are commonly caused by grease, food waste, wet wipes, hair, and soap residue building up over time. In older pipe systems, structural damage and tree root intrusion can also create serious blockages.

Typical signs include slow water drainage, bad smells, and gurgling noises coming from sinks or toilets. In more severe cases, water may start backing up inside your home or outside drainage points.

A CCTV drain survey uses a small camera to inspect the inside of drainage pipes without any digging. It is commonly used to detect blockages, cracks, or hidden structural problems.
