Drain Odour Investigation in Bursledon

Bursledon property owners call us for drain odour investigation because we turn up when we say we will. Typical arrival: 90 minutes–2 hours to SO31, day or night, weekends and bank holidays included.

Drain Odour Investigation for Bursledon (SO31) properties

Older homes in Bursledon 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 drain odour investigation job we take in SO31.

Most common drainage problems in Bursledon

  • Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in SO31
  • Scale and debris build-up narrowing older runs
  • Fat, oil and grease build-up from kitchen waste pipes
