COMMON PROBLEMS

Blocked Drain Problems We Fix in Brent

From shared outside drains in Willesden’s terraced streets to kitchen and bathroom blockages in Wembley and Harlesden, here are the drain problems our engineers are called out for most often across the borough.

Slow-draining sinks and baths

A build-up of grease, soap scum and hair gradually narrows internal pipework, causing water to drain more and more slowly — often the first sign of a blockage forming.

Blocked or overflowing toilets

Wipes, sanitary products and excessive toilet paper are the most common cause of toilet blockages across the borough’s terraced housing, where waste pipe runs are often long and narrow.

Gurgling drains or bad smells

Gurgling sounds from a plughole or a persistent bad smell from a drain usually indicates a partial blockage or blocked air vent further down the system, common in older terraces across Kilburn and Cricklewood.

External drain blockages

Tree roots, silt build-up and misconnected pipework can block external drains serving several properties on the same run, a recurring issue on some of the borough’s older estate roads.

Brent drain context: Much of Brent’s housing, particularly the Victorian terraces around Willesden and Kilburn, was built with drainage systems now well over a century old. Root ingress, ground movement and general wear mean blockages are more common in these older shared runs — a CCTV survey quickly identifies whether the issue is isolated to your property or further down a shared system.

Our Service

Our Blocked Drain Service in Brent

A clear, methodical process to identify the blockage and clear it properly, rather than just pushing it further down the line.

CCTV survey

Where needed, a CCTV camera is passed through the drain to pinpoint the exact location and cause of the blockage before any clearance work begins.

Clear or Repair

Debris cleared by hand or vacuum, and any damaged sections, joints or brackets repaired or replaced.

High-pressure jetting

The blockage is cleared using high-pressure water jetting, removing grease, scale and debris from the full width of the pipe rather than just puncturing through it.

Confirm & guarantee

Flow is tested to confirm the blockage is fully cleared, and the work is covered by our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Kitchen sink in our Willesden house kept backing up every few weeks. Turned out to be years of grease build-up further down the line — high-pressure jetting cleared it completely.
