Domestic Drain Jetting across London

Domestic drain jetting uses high-pressure water to clear blockages and clean the pipe. It suits every type of home drain. That includes main drain runs, soil pipes, surface water drains and internal waste pipes.

Jetting is the preferred method on Victorian clay drains. It removes grease, scale and root hair, and it avoids the joint stress that hard rodding can cause. We use a van-mounted or trailer-mounted unit, depending on access to your London property.

Regular jetting also works as upkeep for older Victorian and Edwardian drains. Some homeowners book a yearly visit to keep the lateral drain clear. This can help avoid emergency blockages.

A CCTV survey may show a structural fault, such as a cracked joint or partial collapse. In that case, we recommend repair before more jetting, because repeat blockages will keep coming from the fault. We can provide a job report that covers pipe condition, the work done and any follow-up advice.

Many owners ask when to book. Slow drains, bad smells and repeat blockages are the usual signs. Jetting suits these cases because it cleans the whole pipe wall. Rodding, in contrast, only punches a hole through the blockage.

Pricing guide

Prices vary because every job differs. Domestic jetting depends on the length of the drain run. A typical terraced house costs less than a longer run at a larger property. Request a quote online, and we confirm the price with you before any work starts.

Domestic Drain Jetting — frequently asked questions

Is high-pressure jetting safe for my Victorian London property's clay pipes?

Yes, when an experienced engineer does the work. We check the pipe condition first and set the pressure to suit older clay pipes. Very old or fractured pipes may need lower pressure, or a CCTV survey first. We never jet at full pressure before we understand the pipe.
