Drainage & drain clearance
Blocked drains, CCTV surveys and high-pressure jetting — experienced drainage engineers.
Same day service
in Pollokshields
Book today or tomorrow for drain unblocking, jetting and drainage repairs.
CCTV drain surveys are useful when you’re buying a house, tracing smells, or proving where responsibility lies between property and main sewer. We survey in Pollokshields, Shawlands and Glasgow and nearby streets with clear footage and plain-English notes you can share with insurers or builders.
Recent blocked drain & jetting work in Pollokshields
Example 1
A Drain Unblocking callout in Pollokshields started when the downstairs WC backed up whenever the upstairs bath emptied — a classic main line restriction.
Camera footage showed a displaced joint catching wipes; we cleared, quoted lining vs dig, and carried out a localised repair with minimal excavation.
Result: Insurance had the footage they needed; we were booked for the recommended repair slot the same week.
Example 2
A Drain Unblocking callout in Pollokshields started when the downstairs WC backed up whenever the upstairs bath emptied — a classic main line restriction.
Camera footage showed a displaced joint catching wipes; we cleared, quoted lining vs dig, and carried out a localised repair with minimal excavation.
Result: The smell stopped; neighbours were happy the pavement wasn’t dug up unnecessarily.
Example 3
We recently completed Drain Unblocking in Pollokshields after a kitchen sink kept blocking every few weeks despite plunging and chemicals.
The survey recorded offsets and material changes for the buyer — no drama, but evidence they could negotiate with — plus a clean bill on the section under the house.
Result: Insurance had the footage they needed; we were booked for the recommended repair slot the same week.
Shared drains, tight lanes and older clay pipe are everyday context here. Teams working Pollokshields and Shawlands, Glasgow, and Giffnock on drain unblocking learn which manholes feed which runs, so we don’t clear the wrong lateral twice.
What you can expect
CCTV drain surveys from us include watchable footage and notes you can forward — useful for purchases and insurance. Drain work in Pollokshields should be transparent, not a black hole in the invoice.
Main drains & manholes in Pollokshields
Blocked drain callouts in Pollokshields are routine for us. We clear properly, then camera the line if repeats suggest a dip, roots or a defect. Same-day and next-day slots are available for emergencies — sinks, WCs, yard gullies and main drains.
Where the cause isn't obvious, we'll run a CCTV survey to pinpoint the problem, then clear it properly. You get a fix that lasts, not a quick clear that fails again. We offer fixed-price quotes where possible and no nasty surprises.
Common questions in Pollokshields
- Do you cover all of Pollokshields, not just the centre?
- Yes — we work across Pollokshields and inner suburbs for blocked drains, slow drains and drain unblocking, with the same standards. Your job is matched to a local engineer where possible. We also work in nearby areas including Shawlands, Glasgow, Giffnock.
- Can you attend same day for a blocked drain?
- We aim for same-day attendance for urgent backups and loss of use of facilities when capacity allows — call us and we’ll give an honest arrival window. We also work in nearby areas including Shawlands, Glasgow, Giffnock.
- Do you use CCTV on drains in Pollokshields?
- Yes — we camera lines when the cause isn’t obvious or a blockage keeps coming back, so you get a lasting fix rather than repeat clearing. We also work in nearby areas including Shawlands, Glasgow, Giffnock.
- What’s the difference between a slow drain and a full blockage?
- A slow drain usually means a partial restriction; a full blockage often backs up into the lowest fixture. We test first and choose rods, jetting or mechanical clearing to match the pipe — not a one-size-fits-all rod job. We also work in nearby areas including Shawlands, Glasgow, Giffnock.
Typical work we see in Pollokshields
- Older clay and shared runs in Pollokshields — we jet and rod properly, and use CCTV when repeat blockages suggest more than surface waste.
- Kitchen fatbergs and bathroom wipes — high-pressure jetting with the right nozzles, plus honest advice if the pipe needs repair or lining.
- Yard gullies and rainwater — we prove foul vs surface water before we price major work.
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.
