What you get

Special Drainage Domestic 24/7 in Manchester: what the price includes

  • 01
    Inside and outside the house

    Kitchen and bathroom wastes, soil stacks, outside gullies, downpipe connections and the run to the boundary, all handled by the same engineer on the same visit.

  • 02
    Flats and shared drainage

    Converted flats stack modern bathrooms onto Victorian waste stacks that were never sized for them. We work out whether the blockage is yours, the freeholder's or the water company's before anyone pays for it.

  • 03
    No caustic chemicals

    Drain crystals poured into standing water leave a hot caustic pond that the next person has to work through, and most firms surcharge for it. We clear mechanically or with water.

  • 04
    Recurring blockages ended

    A drain that blocks every few months has a defect, not a habit. A camera survey finds it, and usually costs less than the third clearance would have.

  • 05
    Left clean

    Gullies rinsed, covers reseated, and the mess taken with us. It is your home, not a job site.

What this means in Greater Manchester

Local conditions we work around

Manchester drainage is Victorian industrial infrastructure serving housing built for mill workers, and the pattern shows. Terraces frequently share rear drainage runs, so a blockage is often the neighbour's rather than yours and the first job is establishing whose it is before anyone gets a bill. The original salt-glazed clay is still in the ground across much of the city, which means displaced joints and root intrusion, and the hillside districts add long shallow runs that silt up.

Straight answers

Special Drainage Domestic 24/7 in Manchester, your questions

My drain keeps blocking, why?
Recurring blockages in the same place mean a physical cause: fat and grease build-up, root intrusion at a clay joint, scale, or a dropped section holding water. Repeated clearing rents a solution; a £165 survey finds the one to own.
Is a blocked drain my responsibility or the water company's?
Inside your boundary it is yours. Beyond it, shared drains have generally been the water company's since 2011, which means their problem and their cost. We check where the blockage actually sits before quoting, and tell you honestly when it is not yours to pay for.
Can I try to clear it myself first?
For one slow sink, absolutely: a proper plunger, or taking the trap off and emptying it. If several fixtures back up together, or an outside gully is overflowing, stop, because every further flush adds to what has to come back out.
Do you work on weekends and at night?
Yes, at the same price. Sewage backing up on a Sunday is not a Monday problem.
What about drains under an extension or a driveway?
We locate them with the camera and a sonde before anything is lifted, so any access is cut in the right place and reinstated properly. Lining often avoids digging altogether.
Is Manchester drainage different?
It is Victorian industrial infrastructure serving housing built for mill workers, and it shows. Terraces frequently share rear drainage runs, so a blockage is often the neighbour's rather than yours and the first job is establishing whose it is before anyone gets a bill. Original salt-glazed clay is still in the ground across much of the city, and the hillside districts add long shallow runs that silt.
