Rats in Drains — Investigation & Sealing for Selsey (PO20) 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 rats in drains — investigation & sealing in Selsey, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.

Most common drainage problems in Selsey

  • Surface water flooding where downpipes discharge into foul drains
  • Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in PO20
  • 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
