If you need a drain unblocking in Edinburgh, it usually starts with a gurgling sink, a bad smell from outside, or water backing up somewhere it shouldn't. Our Edinburgh drain unblocking service clears the blockage and tells you what actually caused it, so you're not calling us back out in three weeks for the same job.

We carry rod sets, high-pressure jetting equipment and a CCTV camera on every van, so most blocked drains in Edinburgh are found and cleared in a single visit. If the cause turns out to be a collapsed pipe or root ingress rather than a simple blockage, we'll show you the footage and quote the repair before doing anything further.

In tenement stairs in Leith, Bruntsfield and Morningside, a single drain often serves every flat, so a blocked drain is a shared problem. We find where it sits and explain how responsibility normally works before anyone pays.
