Drain Jetting Services in Portobello
Drain Jetting Services in Portobello (including Musselburgh and Leith): drain unblocking, jetting and CCTV surveys — Gas Safe where required, fixed quotes, PK Plumbing, 180+ reviews.
Working in Portobello and nearby Musselburgh and Leith, we see homes and properties week in, week out. Mixed housing ages mean boiler sizing, drain method and access planning vary job by job. That local repetition helps on landlord repairs, certificates, and tidy work in finished rooms — we diagnose on site rather than guessing from a postcode. On drain jetting services jobs we rod, jet or camera the line first — repeat blockages in Portobello usually need proof, not another quick clear.
Recent drainage work in Portobello
Example 1
A café in Portobello needed Drain Jetting Services when the yard gully smelled constantly, even after a quick rod from elsewhere.
Camera footage showed a displaced joint catching wipes; we cleared, quoted lining vs dig, and carried out a localised repair with minimal excavation.
Result: Shared-drain letters went to the right parties — no more argument about who paid for the shared length.
Example 2
Our team attended Drain Jetting Services in Portobello for a pre-purchase survey — the buyer wanted eyes in the ground before exchange.
We cleared the line with high-pressure jetting using the correct nozzle, then ran CCTV to confirm the pipe was clean and structurally sound — a fatberg in the bend was the root cause.
Result: Drains ran freely on test; they were pleased we’d proved the cause instead of another “quick rod”.
Example 3
We recently completed Drain Jetting Services in Portobello after a kitchen sink kept blocking every few weeks despite plunging and chemicals.
We located a collapsed section under the drive using sonde and camera; temporary over-pumping wasn’t needed — dig-and-replace was scoped honestly.
Result: The buyer proceeded with eyes open — our report went straight to their solicitor without extra questions.
Jetting needs the right nozzle and pressure for the pipe material; CCTV needs cleanish pipe to see. Our engineers combine both on Portobello jobs and out toward Musselburgh, Leith, and Joppa so you’re not paying for the wrong pass.
Our approach
Pricing agreed upfront, no hidden extras for standard equipment time — that’s how we win repeat drain unblocking work in Portobello.
Blocked drains & drain unblocking in Portobello
We unblock drains across Portobello with high-pressure jetting where it suits the pipe, plus CCTV drain surveys when the cause isn’t obvious or a blockage keeps returning. Same-day and next-day callouts are available for urgent problems, and we work on domestic and commercial properties — blocked sinks, toilets, gurgling stacks, manholes and main lines.
If you're not sure what's causing the blockage, we can run a CCTV survey down the line to identify the issue before we clear it. That way you get a lasting fix rather than a temporary clear. Fixed-price quotes upfront, with no hidden extras.

Blocked drain callouts
Fully blocked or slow draining? We clear kitchen lines, WCs and main runs with the right method — jetting, rods or mechanical — and we camera when it keeps coming back.
Drain unblocking
Slow bathroom wastes, gurgling stacks or a utility sink that won’t run off — we unblock properly and explain what caused it so you’re not stuck in a repeat cycle.
CCTV drain surveys
Buying, insuring or tired of repeat blockages? We camera the line and leave footage plus plain notes you can share — so you fix the cause, not just the symptom.
High-pressure drain jetting
Fatbergs, scale and soft root ingress often need proper jetting with the right nozzles — we match pressure to the pipe and clean up after, without wrecking fragile old clay.
