Blocked drains are never fun to deal with, especially when they cause repeated disruptions to your home or business. At Kingfisher Drainage, we understand the frustration that comes with slow-draining sinks, blocked toilets, and recurring drainage issues. That’s why our highly skilled engineers are equipped with cutting-edge technology to not only clear blockages but also identify their root cause. Recently, we were called out to a property in White Roding, Essex, where a blocked drain was causing major issues. Here’s how we handled the job from start to finish and why Kingfisher Drainage is the best choice for reliable, professional drain unblocking and repair services.
Responding to a Blocked Drain in Essex
When the property owner in White Roding called us with a blocked drain, we responded quickly. With our 24-hour emergency service, we’re always prepared to tackle drainage issues, no matter how challenging. Our team arrived promptly, ready to restore flow and prevent further inconvenience. Upon arriving, we assessed the blocked drain and set to work with our state-of-the-art equipment to clear the blockage efficiently and effectively.
Using CCTV drain survey technology, we were able to identify the root cause of the problem. This isn’t just a temporary fix—knowing what’s causing the blockage helps us to address any underlying issues and prevent further blockages down the line. In this case, what we found was surprising and rare: a utilities company had run their lines through the property’s foul drain line, causing significant damage to the clay pipework.
The Importance of CCTV Drain Surveys in Uncovering Hidden Issues
CCTV drain surveys are one of the best tools in our arsenal for identifying hidden problems within your drainage system. Instead of guessing or trying multiple solutions, our engineers can get a direct view of what’s happening inside your pipes. This allows us to quickly and accurately locate damage, obstructions, or any other issues that could be contributing to the blockage.
For this particular job, the CCTV survey revealed the extent of the damage caused by the misplaced utility lines. Had we only cleared the blockage without investigating further, the property owner would likely have faced recurring drainage issues.
Benefits of a CCTV Drain Survey:
🪠 Quick Identification of Root Causes: No more guesswork; we know exactly what’s causing the problem..
🪠 Non-Invasive: No need to dig up your garden or driveway.
🪠 Long-Term Prevention: By understanding the cause, we can address the underlying issue, saving you time and money in the future.
