Blocked Drain Unblocking in Northgate

Blocked Drain Unblocking for Northgate (RH10) properties

Older homes in Northgate were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every blocked drain unblocking job we take in RH10.

Most common drainage problems in Northgate

• Displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement
• Root ingress at clay pipe joints on tree-lined streets around Northgate
• Shared drainage disputes between neighbouring or converted properties
• Surface water flooding where downpipes discharge into foul drains
• Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in RH10
