Project Overview
A residential property in Islington was experiencing severe wastewater backups, foul odors, and slow-draining fixtures caused by a severely blocked underground pipe. Our emergency drainage team was dispatched to deliver a fast, non-invasive drain unblocking solution, diagnosing the issue and restoring optimal drain performance in a single visit.
The Drainage Challenge
Upon arrival at the Islington site, visual inspection indicated an obstruction deep within the external drain run. Grease accumulation, combined with trapped household debris, had restricted the main drain line by over 80%, posing an immediate risk of internal sewage overflow and structural water damage.

- CCTV Drain Inspection: Deployed high-definition drain survey cameras to locate the precise blockage depth and inspect internal drain wall integrity.
- High-Pressure Drain Jetting: Utilized specialized electro-mechanical water jetting equipment to scour the drain interior, flushing out hardened grease, scale, and foreign matter.
- Post-Clearance Drain Verification: Conducted a secondary camera check through the entire drain system to confirm complete clearance and verify no hairline fractures or displaced joints remained.
- Preventative Drain Sanitisation: Applied eco-friendly drainage disinfectant to neutralize residual bacteria and eliminate persistent drain odours.
