Drain Excavation & Re-Lay for Forest Row (RH18) properties
The blockages we see most in Forest Row are deformed pitch fibre pipes in 1950s–70s housing, wet wipes and sanitary items blocking the main lateral, displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement. Drain Excavation & Re-Lay is the right call when those symptoms point at the underground run rather than the trap under the sink.
