Drain Odour Investigation for Brighton (BN1) properties

Greensand and chalk ridges drain fast on the surface but concentrate groundwater lower down, so soakaways and low-lying gullies take the brunt after a downpour. That matters for drain odour investigation in Brighton, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.

Most common drainage problems in Brighton

  • Scale and debris build-up narrowing older runs
  • Fat, oil and grease build-up from kitchen waste pipes
  • Blocked soakaways causing standing water in gardens and driveways
  • Manhole overflow and backing-up during heavy use
