Drain Services in Taunton
Most calls are a blocked drain that needs clearing today. Some are a drain that keeps blocking and needs a camera down it to find out why. We handle both, and the repairs that follow.
Drain Unblocking
Blocked toilets, sinks, gullies, manholes and main drains cleared with rods and high-pressure jetting, so waste water runs away properly again.
24/7 Emergency Callouts
Sewage coming up, a manhole overflowing or the only toilet out of action? Call any time, day or night, and we'll tell you honestly when we can be there.
CCTV Drain Surveys
A camera inspection shows what's going on inside the pipe: roots, cracks, displaced joints or a collapse. You see the footage and get a clear explanation of it.
Drain Repairs
Cracked, broken or collapsed pipes repaired properly. We explain the options and the cost first, and only dig when it's genuinely the right fix.
Manholes & Chambers
Damaged inspection chambers rebuilt, re-benched and fitted with new frames and covers, so the drain can be reached and cleared easily in future.
Homes, Landlords & Businesses
Homeowners, landlords, letting agents and commercial premises in and around Taunton get the same equipment and the same 24/7 cover.

Common Questions
How can I tell if my drain is blocked?
Water draining slowly, gurgling from plugholes, a bad smell outside, or water sitting in a gully or manhole are the usual signs. If the sink, toilet and shower are all slow at once, the blockage is probably in the main drain rather than one pipe.
Do you really answer 24/7?
Yes. If sewage is backing up, a manhole is overflowing or you've no working toilet, call 01823 213695 at any hour, including weekends and bank holidays.
How much does it cost to unblock a drain?
It depends on where the blockage is, how easy it is to get to and what's causing it. Rather than give one price for very different jobs, we talk it through with you first and agree the cost before any work starts.
How soon can you get to me?
That depends on where you are and where our engineer is when you call. We'll give you a realistic time on the phone rather than an optimistic one.
Why does my drain keep blocking?
A drain that blocks again and again usually has an underlying fault, such as tree roots, a cracked or displaced pipe, or a section that has sagged. A CCTV drain survey shows exactly what's wrong so it can be fixed properly.
Do you do CCTV drain surveys for house buyers?
Yes. A camera survey before you buy can show up cracks, root ingress or collapsed sections that would be costly to put right later. We talk you through the footage and what it means.
Which areas do you cover?
Anywhere within about half an hour of our Blackbrook Park base: all of Taunton, plus Wellington, Wiveliscombe, Bishops Lydeard, North Curry, Ilminster, Langport, North Petherton, Bridgwater and the villages in between. If you're not sure, just call.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents and commercial premises in and around Taunton.
