Common drainage issues include: Root infiltration from Ealing Common and Walpole Park trees in adjacent streets; River Brent flooding risk in the Brent Valley areas; Joint displacement in Edwardian and interwar clay drains; Grease blockages in Southall's dense commercial and residential area; Canal proximity groundwater effects in Hanwell and Southall; Shared drainage in Victorian terrace streets in Acton.
Commercial Drain Maintenance — Southall Ealing. Problem: A commercial property landlord in Southall managing several food retail units had persistent grease blockages causing kitchen drain backups and a previous environmental health notice. Solution: We conducted a full drainage survey of all units, mapped the drain network, installed commercial grease traps on the two highest-volume kitchen outlets, and set up quarterly jetting maintenance for all commercial drain runs. Result: No further blockages or environmental health issues since the programme started. The landlord has peace of mind about compliance.

Drain AdviceDrain unblocking in London costs £80–£600+ depending on severity, method, and time of day. Here is what you can expect to pay in 2026 and how to make sure you are not overcharged.
Recurring blockages in Acton's Victorian terraces are most commonly caused by root infiltration from the street trees that line many residential streets, combined with the natural deterioration of Victorian clay pipe joints. A one-off jetting may clear the immediate blockage, but if the joint is open and roots have entered, the blockage will return. A CCTV survey will confirm whether roots are the cause and allow us to plan a permanent solution — typically root-cutting jetting followed by spot-repair relining.

The most common causes of blocked drains in London include: grease and fat build-up (fatbergs), root intrusion from London's many mature trees, collapsed or cracked Victorian clay pipes, flushed non-flushable items (wet wipes, cotton products), and ground movement from London Clay shrink-swell. London's Victorian drainage infrastructure is particularly susceptible to root infiltration and joint displacement.
