The blockages we see most in Caterham are wet wipes and sanitary items blocking the main lateral, displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement, root ingress at clay pipe joints on tree-lined streets around Caterham.

How fast can you reach Caterham?
Typical arrival: 30–50 minutes once you call. Caterham is around 11 miles from our East Grinstead base, and we run 24 hours a day, so emergencies in CR3 get priority.
Do you cover the whole of CR3 and Tandridge?

Can rats cause drain smells?
Yes — rats break into drainage from disused lateral connections and can carry smells with them into wall cavities.
