Unblocking
- Blocked toilet
- Blocked sink
- Blocked gully
- Overflowing Manhole
Blockages in your drainage system can be caused through a number of reasons, Northern Drainage will first make use of CCTV in the pipeline if possible, to see what is the cause of the obstruction. We will then use high pressure water jets to clear
the blockage.
Following that, another cctv inspection will be conducted along the pipeline to pinpoint any potential issues such as pipe displacement, cracks, root intrusions, or collapse.
Your engineer will discuss the CCTV with you and advise of any
repair if needed.
CCTV Surveys
- Build Over
- Home Buyers
- Drainage Site Mapping
- Pipe Health Inspection
A CCTV survey may be required when planning to build an extension to your property to see where the pipes run and the depths before planning is given.
Your engineer will advise on bridging, relocating manholes if necessary for your build.
If you are buying or selling your home a CCTV survey may be required to check the health of the system, this is usually recommended through the estate agents survey.
A drainage site map is available on request for any CCTV work carried out. A pipe health inspection is required if you are getting foul smells in the house or around the manholes. If you are getting water leaks into the basement or house.
No dig technology
If a repair to your pipeline is deemed necessary wherever possible we will
use no dig technology to repair the damage. No Dig Technology, as the name suggests, involves constructing or repairing underground pipe and drainage infrastructure without the need for traditional digging methods. Instead of excavation, innovative techniques are used to complete projects efficiently and with minimal disruption to the surface.Less mess and usually can be carried out quicker and be more cost effective.
Gullies and channel drains
If you are having issues with water overflowing outside your property this could be a faulty gully, these can often be cleaned out using the high pressure jetting technique.High pressure jetting is a highly effective technique. It can clear out blockages and unwanted buildup, restoring correct free flow.
However if your property is quite old then a gully swap may be required as old pot gullies are subject to cracking/collapsing.
Pooling rainwater in your garden or around your property is usually caused through unlevel ground, an ACO style channel drainage can stop this and drain the water back into the correct system and away from your property to stop any further damage. In a worst case scenario pooling water can
undermine foundations and structural integrity of the property.
Septic tank and soakaway installation.
If your property is domestic or industrial but not connected into the main sewer line you may require a septic tank for foul or soakaway for top water. Northern drainage will perform a site survey and engineers will advise on the best course of action.
Septic tank emptying.
We work closely with a number of septic tank emptying contractors and through repeat custom we can often offer lower prices on regular emptying.We also have a reminder system that will let you know when your septic tank is due for emptying.
Saniflo style macerator systems
Saniflo style macerator systems are innovative units designed to handle waste from toilets and sinks in locations where traditional plumbing installations are not feasible.
However, it is important to note that these systems can easily become blocked if improper items are flushed down the drains. Non-biodegradable materials such as wipes, sanitary products, grease, or hard objects can cause blockages.
