Blocked Drain Cleared in Epsom
Drain Ace was recently called to a property in Epsom, Surrey where the homeowner had reported a blocked drain that was preventing wastewater from flowing freely.
Blocked drains can develop for several reasons including debris build-up, grease deposits or structural problems within the drainage system. In many cases, the exact cause of the blockage cannot be seen from the surface.
To diagnose and resolve the problem effectively, specialist drainage equipment was used.
CCTV Inspection to Locate the Problem
Before clearing the drain, a CCTV drain inspection camera was used to investigate the inside of the pipe.
CCTV inspections allow drainage engineers to see inside underground drains in real time. This helps identify the location of the blockage and determine the best method for clearing it.
The camera inspection confirmed the position of the obstruction within the drainage pipe.
Clearing the Drain with High Pressure Jetting
Once the blockage had been located, the drain was cleared using professional high-pressure water jetting equipment.
The jetting hose was fed into the drain pipe through the open manhole chamber and powerful jets of water were used to break up the debris causing the blockage.
High-pressure jetting is one of the most effective methods for clearing stubborn drain blockages because it can:
- Break up grease and fat build-up
- Remove debris trapped in the pipe
- Flush waste through the drainage system
- Clean the inside walls of the pipe
As the jetting process cleared the obstruction, the drain returned to normal flow.
