Rats in Drains — Investigation & Sealing for Upminster (RM14) properties

Much of the capital still runs on Victorian combined sewers, so a partially blocked lateral shows up fast as slow drains, gurgling and smells inside the property. That matters for rats in drains — investigation & sealing in Upminster, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.
