Blockages
Sometimes, using a rodding eye or working back from a gully, but lifting the chamber is almost always the right first step. It shows which section is blocked in seconds and prevents the engineer working blind and clearing the wrong run.
Where chambers have been paved or built over, engineers can work from other access points, but the job is slower and diagnosis is less certain.
If your chambers are inaccessible, it is worth restoring access with a recessed cover — it pays for itself the first time you need a drain cleared.
For internal-only blockages within a single fixture's waste run, no chamber access is needed at all.
