Drain Odour Investigation for Gravesend (DA12) properties

Much of the Weald sits on heavy clay that swells in winter and shrinks in summer. That movement is the single biggest cause of cracked and displaced joints in older clay drain runs here. That matters for drain odour investigation in Gravesend, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.

Most common drainage problems in Gravesend

  • Collapsed or dropped sections in older clay pipework
  • Deformed pitch fibre pipes in 1950s–70s housing
