Our Preventative Drainage Care Process

We believe in thorough, long-lasting solutions rather than quick fixes. When you choose WGS Services Bolton for your routine maintenance, our fully qualified engineers follow a meticulous process:Initial Assessment: We inspect your exterior drains and interior pipework to identify any immediate vulnerabilities before they worsen.CCTV Drain Surveys: Using advanced camera technology, we look deep into your system to check for root ingress, scale build-up, or structural weaknesses without any disruptive digging.High Pressure Water Jetting: This highly effective, eco-friendly method strips away stubborn fat, grease, and soap scum, restoring your pipes to full capacity.Drain Desilting: We carefully remove accumulated silt, leaves, and mud, ensuring water flows freely straight to the main sewer network.

Why are my drains smelling or emptying slowly?

A slow-draining sink or a persistent foul smell is often the first warning sign of a developing blockage. Over time, daily household waste—such as cooking fats, food particles, hair, and soap scum—coats the inside of your pipes. In exterior drains, natural elements like falling leaves or aggressive tree roots can easily penetrate joints, causing severe structural issues.If left unaddressed, these minor nuisances can quickly escalate into flooded patios or backed-up toilets. Routine drain cleaning in Horwich is the most cost-effective form of blocked drains prevention. By scheduling professional root removal and regular desilting, you significantly extend the lifespan of your drainage system and avoid the stressful disruption of a sudden emergency.

Common Questions About Drain Maintenance

How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?For most residential properties, we recommend a thorough maintenance check and clean every 12 to 18 months. However, if your home is surrounded by large trees or has a history of blockages, more frequent visits may be beneficial.Will high-pressure water jetting damage my older pipes?Not when carried out by professionals. As WJA members, our engineers expertly calibrate the water pressure to suit the specific age and material of your pipework, ensuring a safe, thorough clean without causing any structural damage.Do you deal with tree roots growing into my drains?Yes. Root ingress is a very common issue in the Horwich area. We use specialist equipment for safe root removal and can advise on no-dig drain repairs to effectively seal the pipe and prevent the roots from returning.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional domestic drain maintenance services in Lancashire and the surrounding Lancashire areas.

How often should I have my domestic drains cleaned?

+

For most homes, a professional maintenance check every 12 to 24 months is plenty. However, if you live in an older property with trees nearby, you might need it more often to prevent root ingress from causing structural damage.

What are the signs that my drains need maintenance?

+

Keep an eye out for water draining slowly from the bath or sink, gurgling noises in the pipes, or unpleasant smells near the plugholes. If you see water pooling around external drains or manholes, you should call us straight away.

Does home insurance cover drain maintenance?

+

Most insurance policies cover "sudden and accidental" damage, like a pipe bursting, but they rarely cover issues caused by a lack of maintenance or general wear and tear. Regular cleaning helps you avoid the "gradual" problems that insurers won't pay for.

Is water jetting safe for old pipes?

+

Yes, when done by professionals. We adjust the pressure of our equipment to suit the material and age of your pipes. Being members of the Water Jetting Association means we follow strict safety guidelines to clean your drains without causing any damage.

What is a CCTV drain survey?

+

It is a process where we put a waterproof camera into your drainage system. It sends a live feed back to a monitor, allowing us to see exactly what is happening inside the pipe. It is the best way to find the cause of recurring blockages or to check the condition of pipes before you buy a new house.
