Drainage Services Feltham
Blocked drain clearance, CCTV surveys and no-dig relining for Feltham homes, from engineers who know Feltham buildings.
Local knowledge
Feltham housing, from a drainage engineer's side
Feltham's housing stock includes a large proportion of 1930s-1950s semi-detached and detached homes, often with longer drainage runs to the main sewer. While some may have newer plastic pipes, many still operate on older, potentially fractured clay systems. The area also has numerous commercial premises, meaning some residential drains can be affected by nearby business activity, requiring a broader diagnostic approach.

What fails here
Common drainage problems in Feltham
01
Long Drain Run Blockages
Properties with larger rear gardens often have drain runs exceeding 20 metres to the sewer. A blockage anywhere along this length is difficult to locate without CCTV. Symptoms include gurgling sounds and very slow drainage, culminating in a total backup that requires extensive jetting equipment.
02
Ground Movement Fractures
Subsidence or ground settlement over time can fracture rigid clay pipes, especially on longer runs. This breakage allows soil to wash into the pipe, creating a solid, earthy blockage that standard jetting cannot clear, necessitating excavation and pipe repair.
03
Cross-Connection Issues
In areas with mixed residential and light commercial use, there is a risk of accidental cross-connections or misconnected waste pipes (e.g., sink waste connected to a rainwater drain). This can cause unexpected flooding or pollution issues that require tracing and rectification.
04
Storm Drain Infiltration
Older properties may have separate surface water drains that have degraded or become interconnected with foul drains. During heavy rain, water can infiltrate the foul system, overloading it and causing backups. Diagnosing this requires dye testing and CCTV survey.
Three methods, one visit
High-pressure jetting
Blasts grease, silt and root growth from pipe walls without digging.
CCTV survey
A camera on rods or a crawler unit records the pipe condition end to end.
No-dig relining
A resin liner is cured inside the damaged pipe instead of excavating it.
