Why is my drain smelling or backing up?

Foul odours, slow-draining sinks, and gurgling noises are all early warning signs that something is wrong underground. In the Ribble Valley area, the most common culprits for blocked drains include the build-up of fats, oils, and grease from kitchens, as well as wet wipes and sanitary products flushed down toilets.Additionally, older properties in Clitheroe often suffer from root ingress, where tree roots penetrate aging pipes in search of moisture, eventually causing severe blockages or collapsed drains. If you notice any of these signs, it is essential to act quickly to prevent costly water damage or health hazards. Our Clitheroe drainage experts are equipped to diagnose the exact cause and clear the blockage swiftly.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our drainage services in Lancashire

How do I know if my drain is blocked or if it is a problem with the main sewer?

+

If only one fixture, like your sink, is slow to drain, the blockage is likely in that specific pipe. If multiple toilets or drains are backing up, or if you see water rising out of an external manhole, the problem is in the main drainage line. If the issue is outside your property boundary, it may be the responsibility of United Utilities, but we can help you identify exactly where the fault lies with a quick inspection.

What is a no-dig drain repair and how long does it last?

+

No-dig repair, or patch lining, involves inserting a resin-impregnated liner into the damaged pipe and inflating it until it hardens. Once cured, it forms a "pipe within a pipe" that is often stronger than the original. These repairs are designed to last for decades and are much faster and cheaper than digging up your floor or garden.

Why should I get a CCTV survey before buying a house?

+

A standard home survey rarely covers the underground infrastructure. If the house you are buying has cracked pipes or tree roots growing into the drains, you could be facing a bill for thousands of pounds shortly after moving in. Our homebuyer reports give you leverage to ask the seller to fix the issues or lower the asking price before you commit to the purchase.

Do you offer emergency drainage services 24/7?

+

Yes, we understand that drainage problems don't stick to office hours. We provide emergency response across Lancashire to deal with floods, severe blockages, and burst pipes. Our goal is to get your home or business back to normal as quickly as possible with minimal disruption.
