🚨 Grease, fat and scale building up in your drains? We’ll shift it.

Our team recently tackled a serious build-up at a residential block in Wiltshire. Years of mass scale, grease and fat had settled across the branch connections and main drain runs, putting the whole system at risk of blockages and backing up.

Here’s how we sorted it in a single day πŸ‘‡
βœ… Maxi Miller descaling to break up hardened scale
βœ… High-pressure water jetting to flush every branch and main line through to the sewer
βœ… CCTV inspection of all pipe runs after cleaning
βœ… Site barriered and signed throughout for residents’ safety
βœ… Left clean and tidy, with all waste disposed of properly

The result? Clear, free-flowing pipework, and a client who can rest easy knowing their drains are back in top condition. πŸ’§

🐸 An unexpected visitor on the job!
Our engineers never quite know what they’ll come across when out on the job…
During a recent visit, our engineer Matt discovered a frog in a standpipe filling point - happy to hop onto a helping hand... although we’re not sure how much drainage experience this one has! πŸ˜†

🐸 But back to the job in hand…
Matt was able to successfully clear a localised toilet blockage caused by a build-up of tissue and waste, getting things flowing freely again! πŸ’§

Stones in the drains? No problem!

Our engineer Chris went out to a home in the Bristol area this week. Loose stones and debris had got into the drainage system and settled in the rest bends of two manholes, so the waste water couldn’t flow properly.

Here’s what Chris did:

βœ…Carried out CCTV inspection to find out exactly what was causing the blockage
βœ…Used high-pressure water jetting on 2 lines to clear the stones and debris out of the rest bends
βœ…Ran a second CCTV inspection to check the work, and everything was clear and flowing freely

πŸš† 4 days. 4 engineers. One spotless railway drainage system.

Our team has just wrapped up a large-scale drainage clean on a live railway project, working on both sides of the tracks under full rail safety supervision.

Here's what we did:
βœ… High-pressure water jetting with our combi tanker on 450mm to 900mm lines
βœ… Emptied and washed down every catch pit, clearing silt, sand and stones
βœ… Crawler camera surveys to show the true condition of the pipework
βœ… Spotted a partial collapse early, so the client can plan repairs before it becomes a bigger problem
βœ… Used high-pressure water jetting to jet debris away from the outfall to protect the local watercourse
βœ… Confined space working, fall arrest and full hi-vis PPE throughout

Every area and cover was left safe at the end of each day, and the job was finished on schedule. πŸ’ͺ

πŸš› Weekend warriors in action!

While out on a septic tank empty at a crematorium, our engineer Harley spotted that the gullies on site were full - so we arranged a follow-up visit to sort them. Knowing services were taking place, we rearranged our schedule to carry out the work over the weekend instead, to avoid any disruption.

Using a combi tanker and van pack, our engineers Dooey and Jordan cleared gullies packed with silt and root intrusion, including one causing unpleasant odours in a storage area - flushing and flow-testing everything until it was running clean again.

One gully needs a follow-up, but we've got a plan ready to go.

Great example of the team keeping an eye out and working flexibly to get the job done without getting in anyone's way. πŸ‘

When "all the drains are blocked" means a trip into the ceiling space!

Our engineers Ethan and Louis were called out after reports that all the drains at a commercial site had backed up.

Investigation traced the issue to a blocked kitchen sink, with the affected pipework running through the ceiling space of the floor below - meaning access wasn't as simple as lifting a manhole! A second engineer and ladder were called in to help access the pipework safely. πŸͺœ

Using electro-mechanical cleaning from two access points, the team worked for several hours to clear the blockage, caused by a serious build-up of mass grease and fat.

Sometimes clearing a blockage means getting into places you wouldn't expect - ceiling voids included! Once cleared, flow and dye testing confirmed everything was running properly again, and the area was cleaned and left tidy. βœ…

πŸ” Did you know this is what scale build-up looks like inside a pipe?

This still was taken during a CCTV inspection on a blocked toilet at a property in Midsomer Norton. That rough, pale coating lining the pipe walls is mass scale - a build-up of minerals and debris that forms gradually over time and narrows the pipe.

Our engineer cleared the immediate blockage and got everything flowing again, but flagged this build-up for a proper descale to stop it becoming a recurring issue.

It's a great example of why CCTV inspections matter - you can clear a blockage, but the camera shows you exactly what's really going on further down the line. πŸŽ₯
