THE FULL MANHOLE!

Last week we were called out to a property where the homeowner reported that her toilet was taking an age to empty after flushing. We started our investigation by lifting manhole covers. The picture is the first of 4 manholes this one being the first one nearest to the house. Manhole 2 was the same and Manhole 3 was half full. This drain run from the property to Manhole 4 is 45.00 metres long.

 

The cause of the problem was found in Manhole 4. It was full of roots. The roots were removed, the drain run emptied and cleaned with the necessary repairs being carried out.

If you have trees and/or large shrubs in your gardens that are in the vicinity of your drains be aware that plants love effluent and wherever possible will get their roots to it.

Commercial Urinals

If your company has a lot of male employees at its premises the drainage from the urinals could be blocking with uric scale!

We attend several factories, warehouses, delivery centre, pubs and offices where the Gents urinals are used frequently. The scale builds up in the waste pipes and eventually blocks causing flooding in the toilets. If the Gents toilets at your premises have a smell of urine in them or it has been reported that the urinals when flushed are taking longer than usual to clear it could be due to a build-up of scale in the waste pipes. Call Kevin on 0800 00 33 28 to get the pipes cleared to improve the flow and reduce the smell.

BLOCKED DRAINS

Today we are busy attending several reports of blocked drains. One customer has been trying to clear the drain himself for the last 2 weeks and has now admitted defeat. If you have a blocked drain, domestic or commercial, call KEVIN 0800 00 33 28. We also provide a property maintenance service. If you have a property problem call us and if we can solve it we will.

Urinals

We are on our way to carry out a “de-scale” of urinal pipework at a company that has a lot of male employees. The scale restricts the flow through the pipes and eventually blocks the pipework. If you have ever walked into a Gents toilet and can smell ammonia/urine this is usually due to the build up of scale in the pipework. If you have a lot of Male employees or have noticed the aforementioned smell call Drain Doctor on 0800 00 33 28. We can clean the pipework and provide you with a maintenance plan to keep the smell at bay and your pipes flowing.
