Fast, Friendly Help for Blocked Drains

Blocked drains aren’t just inconvenient — they can quickly turn into a messy, costly headache for Crawley property and business owners. Whether it’s a stubborn sink blockage or a full system backup, a professional drainage company like our own, Southern Drainage & Water Ltd, has the tools and know-how to sort it fast. But to stop them from happening again, it’s important to understand what causes these issues in the first place.

That’s where a CCTV drain survey comes in handy. It reveals exactly what’s lurking below the surface, highlighting the true cause of the problem — whether it’s tree roots, collapsed pipes, or even the early signs of pitched fibre degradation.

For homeowners and businesses in Crawley, acting early can help you avoid expensive drain repairs and keep things flowing smoothly. Some blocked drains just need a clean-out, while others might require more technical solutions like pitched fibre repairs. Whatever the case, a local drainage company such as Southern Drainage & Water Ltd can pinpoint the issue quickly and offer a fix that lasts.

Why a CCTV Drain Survey Makes All the Difference

When it comes to diagnosing blocked drains, nothing beats a professional CCTV drain survey. Engineers feed a high-resolution camera into your drainage system, providing a live, visual report of what’s causing the issue — without having to dig or guess.

If the footage shows pipe collapse, damage from invasive roots, or squashed pitched fibre pipes, your drainage company can advise on the next steps — whether it’s straightforward jetting or more in-depth drain repairs, e.g. no dig pitched fibre repairs. In Crawley, where older infrastructure is common, this type of early diagnosis is essential for preventing long-term issues and unexpected emergencies.
