FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our drain repair and sewer rehabilitation services in Felixstowe & Suffolk

Do I need a CCTV drain survey for every repair?

+

While not every single blockage requires a camera, we highly recommend it for any recurring issues or suspected damage. It is the only way to see the structural integrity of the pipe. It saves you money by preventing "guesswork" excavations and ensures we find the real problem the first time.

What is pipe relining and does it work?

+

Pipe relining is a "no-dig" technology where we insert a new, tough lining inside your existing pipe. It bonds to the inside of the old pipe, sealing cracks and joints. It is a fantastic way to fix structural issues without having to dig up your garden, patio, or driveway. It is fast, durable, and very effective for many common drainage faults.

Is the homeowner always responsible for drain repairs?

+

Generally, you are responsible for the drains inside your property boundary up until the point they join the public sewer. However, some pipes are "lateral drains" or shared sewers which may be the responsibility of the local water authority (like Anglian Water). We can help you identify which parts of the system are your responsibility during our initial inspection.

How long does a typical drain repair take?

+

Most minor repairs, such as patch linings or clearing major blockages, can be completed within a few hours. Larger excavations or full sewer rehabilitations may take a day or two. We always provide a clear timeline before we start work so you can plan your day accordingly.

Do you have to dig up my garden to fix a broken pipe?

+

In many cases, no. Thanks to modern pipe relining techniques, we can often fix cracks and leaks from the inside. We only suggest excavation if the pipe has completely collapsed or if there is a severe blockage that cannot be cleared any other way.

How do I know if I need a CCTV drain survey?

+

If you have recurring blockages, unexplained damp patches on your walls, or a sudden infestation of rats, a CCTV survey is the best way to find the cause. It is also a very smart move to have one done before you buy a new house so you don't inherit a hidden drainage problem.

What is the most common cause of blocked drains in Suffolk?

+

In this part of the country, we see a lot of issues with tree root ingress. Roots are attracted to the moisture in pipes and can grow through tiny cracks, eventually blocking the flow or breaking the pipe entirely. We also deal with "fatbergs" caused by grease and non-flushable items being put down the sink.

Can you help with emergency drainage outside of normal business hours?

+

Yes, we provide a 24/7 emergency response for urgent drainage issues across Felixstowe and the surrounding towns. We know that a sewage leak cannot wait until Monday morning, so our team is always ready to help.
