Drain Unblocking in Craven Arms
Fast drain unblocking with high-pressure water jetting for blocked drains, toilets, gullies and soil stacks, at homes and businesses across Shropshire. Serving Craven Arms and the surrounding villages, including Wistanstow, Aston on Clun, Hopesay, Clun.
A blocked drain announces itself: toilets that will not clear, gullies backing up in the yard, that unmistakable smell. Most blockages are caused by the usual suspects, fat and grease, wipes, roots that have found a joint, or a pipe defect that has finally caught enough debris to close the bore.
In SY7 country, off-mains is close to universal outside the town. Hill farms, roadside cottages and village properties all depend on their own tanks, and distances mean many systems see a professional rarely. A good number of older installations here still discharge in ways the 2020 rules no longer permit.
We clear blockages with high-pressure water jetting, which cuts through grease and roots and washes the debris away rather than just punching a hole through it, so the drain is properly clear rather than temporarily relieved. Rods still have their place for simple, close blockages, and we carry both.

Drain Unblocking: common questions
How quickly can you get to a blocked drain?
Usually same day within our Shropshire coverage area, and we prioritise blockages causing internal flooding or affecting the only toilet in the house.
Is jetting safe for old pipes?
In experienced hands, yes. Pressure and jetting heads are chosen to suit the pipe material and condition, and older clay or pitch fibre lines are treated with appropriate care.
The drain blocks every few months. Is that normal?
No. A healthy drain should not block on a schedule. Repeat blockages almost always mean a defect or a root mass in the line, and a CCTV survey will show exactly what and where it is.
