DrainFixer clears blocked drains, toilets, sinks and sewers across Markyate and the wider Dacorum area, 24 hours a day. High-pressure jetting, CCTV surveys and no-dig repairs, all from one van.
Local subsoil holds water after heavy rain, which puts extra load on gullies, soakaways and any drain run with a sag or a displaced joint.
A lot of drainage in Markyate predates the people using it. Extensions, loft conversions and added bathrooms load runs beyond their original design, and that's when hidden faults finally show.
From the centre of Markyate out to the edges of AL3, we carry jetting, CCTV and drain rods on every van, so most jobs are solved on the first visit.
Typical arrival: 60–90 minutes to Markyate once you call. Markyate is roughly 53 miles from our East Grinstead base, and we run 24/7 — nights, weekends and bank holidays included. Call 0330 1331 347 and we'll tell you honestly when an engineer will be with you.
Yes. We cover every street in AL3 and the surrounding Dacorum area, including outlying hamlets and rural properties on private drainage systems.
The most common causes we see locally are shared drainage disputes between neighbouring or converted properties, surface water flooding where downpipes discharge into foul drains, silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in AL3. A CCTV survey tells us which one it is in minutes rather than guessing.
We do. Our phone lines are staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and we treat sewage inside a property or flooding risk as a priority call-out anywhere in Hertfordshire.
Yes — pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys in Markyate are one of our most requested jobs. You get a recorded survey, a written report and a clear list of any defects with repair options.
In Hertfordshire, pipework inside your property boundary that only serves your home is usually yours. Shared runs and anything beyond the boundary are typically the water authority's. We'll tell you which is which before any work starts — and never charge you for a job that isn't yours.
