For most homes, once a year is a good rule of thumb, especially if you’ve had blockages in the past. Properties with more usage, like rentals or busy family homes, might benefit from more frequent checks to stay ahead of buildup.

Yes, when used correctly. Before we jet anything, we assess the condition of your pipes. In older Cornish homes, especially in areas like Falmouth or Bodmin, we may use lower pressure or alternative methods to avoid causing damage.

Slow draining sinks, bad smells, gurgling sounds, or water backing up are all red flags. If you’re reaching for the plunger more than usual, it’s time to bring in a professional.

We don’t recommend it. Chemical cleaners can corrode pipes over time and often just push the problem further down. A proper clean gets to the root of the issue, safely and thoroughly.

Absolutely. We’re on call 24/7 across Cornwall, whether you’re in Truro, Newquay, or anywhere in between. If it’s urgent, we’re ready.

Once your drains are clear, we’ll give you honest, tailored advice on what caused the issue, and how to avoid it happening again. That might mean changing habits, upgrading old pipes, or scheduling occasional maintenance.

We guide a waterproof camera through your drains to get a live view of what’s going on. It shows us cracks, roots, scale, or anything else causing trouble, without the need for digging or guesswork.

Our drain cleaning service starts at £120, which covers the initial assessment and basic snaking. If your system needs jetting or extra work, we’ll explain everything clearly before going ahead.

Definitely. Catching small issues early means you avoid major repairs down the line. It’s a simple way to save yourself stress, mess, and unexpected costs.

Yes, we favour mechanical methods like jetting and snaking over harsh chemicals. It’s safer for your pipes, better for the environment, and just as effective.
