Blocked Drain Cleared in Guildford
Drain Ace was recently called to a property in Guildford, Surrey where the homeowner was experiencing a blocked drain that was preventing wastewater from flowing properly through the drainage system.
Blocked drains can occur for a number of reasons including debris build-up, grease deposits, foreign objects or structural issues within the pipework. In some cases, the exact cause of the blockage is not immediately visible from the surface.
To diagnose and resolve the problem efficiently, specialist drainage equipment was used.
CCTV Inspection to Identify the Blockage
Before clearing the drain, a CCTV drain inspection camera was used to investigate the inside of the pipe.
CCTV drain surveys allow drainage engineers to see inside underground pipes in real time and locate the exact position of the blockage. This helps determine the best method for clearing the obstruction and ensures the problem is resolved quickly.
The camera inspection confirmed the location of the blockage within the drainage system.
Clearing the Drain with High Pressure Jetting
Once the blockage had been identified, the drain was cleared using high-pressure water jetting equipment.
A specialist jetting hose was fed into the drain pipe and powerful jets of water were used to break up the debris causing the blockage and flush it through the system.
High-pressure jetting is one of the most effective ways to clear stubborn blockages because it can:
- Break up grease and fat deposits
- Remove debris trapped in the pipe
- Flush silt and waste through the system
- Clean the inside of the pipe walls
Once the obstruction had been removed, the drain began flowing normally again.
