Why Our Expert Drain Repair Stands Out

When you need dependable drain repairs, we’re just a phone call away

Local Expertise

We live and work in Plymouth, so we know exactly how to handle the most common drain issues in the area.

Rapid Response

When you search for ‘drain service near me’, you need someone at your door quickly. We pride ourselves on same day visits and emergency callouts.

Skilled Technicians

From minor fixes to large-scale drain pipe repairs, our technicians bring hands on experience and use the latest tools to diagnose and repair the problem with minimal disruption.

Transparent Pricing

No hidden fees, no guesswork. Before any work begins, we’ll walk you through the cost of drainage repairs, ensuring there are no surprises on your final invoice.

Straightforward Reliable Drain Repairs

Our base fee covers that initial inspection and basic snaking. If your pipes require jetting or additional repairs, like minor relining, we outline each step and cost before proceeding so you stay in control.

Fast Professional Repairs

Our crew works efficiently to complete the job—whether that means snaking the line, relining a section of pipe, or installing new drainage fixtures.

Clear Estimate

If symptoms suggest an obscure blockage, we employ a CCTV camera to inspect your drains from within. This approach pinpoints issues such as grease accumulation, root encroachment, or misplaced debris with precision.

Initial Inspection

We schedule an appointment that fits your timing. Conduct a thorough assessment, explaining the issue in plain English.

Called Drainblock as an outside drain was backing up. Roman came round, assessed the issue and proceeded it to fix it. Quick, efficient and polite. Highly recommended.

Yes. All our drain repairs come with a one-year warranty on labour and materials. If anything goes wrong, we’ll return and put it right free of charge.

Common culprits include tree root intrusion, corroded or collapsed pipes, shifting ground, and poor original installation. Regular CCTV surveys help catch these early.

Absolutely. We use trenchless relining, sectional repairs, and small access points to minimise digging, so your lawns, patios and planting stay intact.

Repairs start from £150, depending on the issue’s complexity and access requirements. We’ll provide a clear, no-obligation quote before we begin any work.

DIY may work for minor clogs, but most pipe repairs require specialist tools, training and safety measures. Hiring professionals ensures a lasting fix and avoids health or structural risks.

We guide a waterproof camera through your pipe network, streaming live footage to identify blockages, cracks, root damage or misalignments. You get a recorded video and a written report.

Drain cleaning focuses on removing blockages (grease, debris, roots) using jetting or snaking. Drain repair addresses structural damage—patching cracks, relining or replacing pipe sections to restore integrity.

Rebecca Telford

Roman very kindly gave his time and experience to help us deal with a terrible experience from a rogue trader. He reviewed CCTV footage and was able to explain what would have been a reasonable and fair 

Nick Woodman

Called Roman today after an ongoing issue with our drains and a terrible smell, he popped out in the evening and within a couple of hours, an over 20 year issue was resolved. I cannot thank him enough, such a kind and genuine man and so helpful, made the wife emotional because she literally thought it was a lost cause, but he sorted it.
