Answers to common questions about blocked drains, emergency call-outs and drain unblocking services.
Blocked drains are commonly caused by a build-up of fat, oil and grease, wet wipes and hygiene products, food waste, scale and silt, or tree root ingress.
In some cases, collapsed or damaged pipework can restrict flow and create recurring blockages.
We clear blocked drains using professional methods such as high-pressure water jetting and mechanical clearing where appropriate.
CCTV inspection is used to confirm the cause and ensure the blockage is fully removed. If structural defects are identified, we can recommend suitable repair options.
Yes. Alton Facility Services offers emergency response for urgent drainage issues.
If there is flooding, sewage back-up or loss of drainage, we prioritise rapid attendance to reduce disruption and prevent damage.
Not usually. Many blockages can be cleared using existing access points such as manholes or rodding eyes.
If CCTV inspection shows a collapse or damaged pipework that cannot be repaired internally, excavation may be required. We will always explain options and costs before any work proceeds.
Yes. We aim to identify the underlying cause using CCTV where required.
Preventive actions may include jetting, descaling, root removal, targeted repairs or a planned maintenance schedule—depending on what your drainage system needs.
Costs vary depending on the severity of the blockage, access, travel distance and whether CCTV inspection or repairs are required.
We provide clear pricing once we understand the issue and will always advise the most cost-effective approach.
