Reliable Drainage Solutions for Your Home and Business

Common signs include slow-draining sinks, baths or showers, unpleasant smells, gurgling sounds, water backing up and overflowing drains. If several fixtures are affected at the same time, the blockage may be located further along the main drainage system.

Blocked drains can be caused by a build-up of grease, fat, oil, food waste, hair, soap, sanitary products, wet wipes and other unsuitable materials. Tree roots, damaged pipework, collapsed drains and poor installation can also cause recurring blockages.

Yes. AndLee Drainage Solutions provides 24/7 emergency drainage unblocking services across Greater Manchester, Cheshire, West Yorkshire, Wigan and Sheffield. Call 07394 396962 for assistance.

We aim to respond as quickly as possible, particularly where a blockage is causing flooding, sewage back-up or significant disruption. Response times may vary depending on your location, traffic and current demand.

Not always. High-pressure water jetting is useful for removing stubborn blockages and cleaning pipework, but the appropriate method depends on the location, cause and condition of the blockage. Our engineers will recommend the safest and most effective option.

Depending on the blockage, we may use high-pressure water jetting, electro-mechanical cleaning equipment, drain rods or CCTV drain inspection equipment. We select the most suitable method after assessing the drainage problem.

Yes. We provide drainage unblocking for homes, landlords, businesses, commercial premises and other properties. Our engineers can deal with everything from household blockages to larger or more complex drainage systems.

Yes. If a blockage keeps returning, we can investigate the drainage system using CCTV drain survey equipment. This can help identify issues such as damaged pipes, root ingress, collapsed drains, poor connections or objects trapped inside the pipework.

Not necessarily. A blocked drain may affect a private pipe serving a property, while a sewer may serve multiple properties and could be the responsibility of the local water authority. If you're unsure who is responsible, our engineers can help assess the problem.

Some minor blockages may respond to a suitable plunger or basic drain-cleaning method. However, harsh chemical cleaners can damage pipework and may be dangerous to handle. If the blockage is severe, recurring or causing wastewater to back up, it's best to contact a professional drainage company.

Avoid pouring fats, oils and grease down sinks, and do not flush wipes, sanitary products, nappies or other unsuitable items. Use sink strainers where appropriate and arrange professional cleaning or inspection if your drainage system is prone to recurring blockages.

We aim to work tidily and minimise disruption to your property. Once the drainage unblocking work is complete, we will leave the immediate work area as clean as reasonably possible.

The cost depends on factors such as the location and severity of the blockage, the equipment required, the time of attendance and whether further investigation or repair is needed. Contact AndLee Drainage Solutions for advice and a quotation based on your specific problem.

Stop using sinks, toilets, showers and other connected appliances if possible. Keep children and pets away from contaminated water, avoid contact with sewage and call a professional drainage company as soon as possible. If the issue may affect a public sewer, contact your local water authority as well.
