Blocked drain in Ovingdean? DrainFixer covers BN2 around the clock with fully equipped jetting and CCTV vans. We're a small, family-run team based 22 miles away in East Grinstead — so you get a real local engineer, not a call centre.
Greensand and chalk ridges drain fast on the surface but concentrate groundwater lower down, so soakaways and low-lying gullies take the brunt after a downpour.
Property in Ovingdean ranges from converted and extended older homes — where drainage has been re-routed more than once — to modern developments with private drainage that management companies often assume the water authority maintains. It doesn't.
From the centre of Ovingdean out to the edges of BN2, we carry jetting, CCTV and drain rods on every van, so most jobs are solved on the first visit.
Typical arrival: 45–70 minutes to Ovingdean once you call. Ovingdean is roughly 22 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 BN2 and the surrounding Brighton and Hove area, including outlying hamlets and rural properties on private drainage systems.
The most common causes we see locally are 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. 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 Brighton and Hove.
Yes — pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys in Ovingdean 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 Brighton and Hove, 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.
