Drain Odour Investigation for Handcross (RH17) properties

The blockages we see most in Handcross are collapsed or dropped sections in older clay pipework, deformed pitch fibre pipes in 1950s–70s housing, wet wipes and sanitary items blocking the main lateral. Drain Odour Investigation is the right call when those symptoms point at the underground run rather than the trap under the sink.
