Southwark spans converted riverside warehouses and new-build developments in Bermondsey and Rotherhithe, the leafy garden suburbs of Dulwich and Camberwell, and the dense Victorian terraces of Peckham and East Dulwich. Each brings a different drainage challenge.
Shared drainage risers and communal waste stacks serve the flats in these converted and new-build developments. Blockages here often affect multiple units, so fast diagnosis with a drain camera before any digging is essential.
Mature trees and long garden drainage runs mean root ingress is a recurring issue here. High-pressure jetting combined with root-cutting and CCTV surveys keep these runs clear long term.
Original clay drainage under these terraces is prone to cracking, displacement and grease build-up over a century of use. CCTV surveys pinpoint exact fault locations before any repair.
Older combined drainage systems in this part of the borough can be prone to surface water backups during heavy rainfall, needing fast gully and manhole clearance to relieve the flow.
High-pressure jetting clears blocked sinks, toilets, gullies and main drain runs — fast diagnosis, no unnecessary digging.
Camera inspection pinpoints cracks, root ingress and collapses before any repair work is agreed — full report provided.
High-pressure water jetting removes grease, silt and root ingress from drain runs of any length.
Cracked, displaced or collapsed drains repaired or relined without full excavation wherever possible.
External gullies and manholes cleared of silt, leaves and debris to prevent surface flooding.
Mechanical root cutting combined with jetting for gardens with mature trees near drain runs.
Fast clearance of blocked toilets, sinks and showers — most jobs resolved on the first visit.
Pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys with a written report, commonly requested during conveyancing.

Garden drain in Dulwich kept backing up every time it rained. Turned out to be a tree root that had grown right into the pipe. Cleared it and sent us photos from the camera so we could see exactly what happened.
Shared drain problem affecting our whole converted warehouse block in Bermondsey. Coordinated with the other flats, ran a camera survey to find the exact blockage point, and had it jetted clear the same afternoon.
Needed a pre-sale drain survey for our Peckham terrace. Report came back with a cracked section flagged clearly, and they quoted a fair fixed price to reline it rather than dig up the garden.

Yes. Root ingress from mature trees is one of the most common issues we see in these areas. We combine mechanical root cutting with high-pressure jetting to clear the drain, and can advise on longer-term relining if roots keep returning.
Not unless it's genuinely necessary. Every non-obvious blockage is inspected with a CCTV drain camera first, and we always look at jetting, root-cutting or no-dig relining before recommending excavation.
