Blocked Drains in Surrey & Sussex

Blocked drains are one of the most common household and commercial issues, and they can cause major disruption if left untreated. At RP Drainage we are often called out to deal with unpleasant odours, slow draining sinks and even overflowing manholes, all caused by a blockage somewhere in the system. Understanding what blocks drains can help prevent future problems.

The most frequent culprits in domestic properties are fats, oils and grease that congeal inside the pipework. Add in soap residue, hair and food waste, and the drain quickly begins to narrow. In bathrooms, shampoo, conditioner and even excess toilet paper can build up, while outside, leaves, soil and silt are common causes of blocked gullies and garden drains. Commercial sites face similar challenges, particularly restaurants and catering facilities, where grease build-up is a constant risk. Over time, these obstructions reduce flow and can lead to stubborn, recurring blockages.

That is where our professional drain clearance services make a real difference. Using specialist equipment, including high pressure water jetting and advanced CCTV drain surveys, we can identify the source of the blockage quickly and clear it with minimal disruption. Our experienced engineers are trained to handle everything from small household blockages to major drainage issues affecting commercial premises.
