Blocked drain in Upminster? DrainFixer covers RM14 around the clock with fully equipped jetting and CCTV vans. We're a small, family-run team based 32 miles away in East Grinstead — so you get a real local engineer, not a call centre.
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.
Property in Upminster 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 Upminster out to the edges of RM14, 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 Upminster once you call. Upminster is roughly 32 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 RM14 and the surrounding Havering 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 Greater London.
Yes — pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys in Upminster 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 Greater London, 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.
