Fantastic service! We had a completely blocked main sewer line at our guest house near the North Pier. Called them at 6 am, and the engineer was on site in Blackpool within the hour. They used the high-pressure jetting and cleared everything in under 90 minutes, all for the fixed price we were quoted over the phone. A genuine 5-star emergency service.

I can't recommend this company enough. We had a persistent blockage at our home in Poulton-le-Fylde (FY6). The engineer was friendly, explained that it was a build-up of scale, and made sure the drain was fully flushed. They showed me the difference before and after. Clean, efficient, and very professional team right here in the local area.

Excellent drainage expertise. Our kitchen sink in Lytham St Annes was backing up badly. They arrived quickly and used their advanced jetting equipment to deal with what turned out to be heavy grease build-up. The communication was great, and they were responsive throughout the whole Fylde Coast process. Highly satisfied.

Our drain blocked completely late on a Saturday night. I called their 24/7 emergency line, and they managed the situation perfectly. The engineer traced the issue quickly, cleared the exterior blockage with ease, and charged exactly what was promised. A life-saver for keeping our home functioning in Thornton-Cleveleys.

Rapid, Local Response for Blocked Drains Blackpool


When you experience a drainage emergency, you need local experts who understand the unique challenges of the Fylde Coast. Our teams are strategically positioned across the Blackpool and Fylde area, enabling us to offer an unrivalled rapid response service to all FY postcodes, including FY1 (Central), FY4 (South Shore), and FY5 (Cleveleys). We aim to be on-site quickly, minimizing disruption whether you are running a hotel near the Promenade or managing a home in Layton. We are your proven, reliable, and swift solution for every drainage crisis in Blackpool. For complex issues involving shared public sewers, we can also advise on responsibility—which typically falls to the local water authority, United Utilities.

Why Blackpool Drains Require Specialist Attention

Drainage systems in Blackpool face unique challenges, distinguishing them from inland towns. Factors such as the high water table, older infrastructure beneath the town centre, and the heavy demands of the hospitality sector (hotels, restaurants, and takeaways) lead to specific blockage types. We frequently tackle:

  • FOG (Fat, Oil, and Grease) Build-Up: A common issue for commercial kitchens near the Promenade and Winter Gardens. For solutions, see our dedicated FOG Removal & Grease Trap Cleaning service.

  • Coastal Ingress: Sand and silt penetration affecting older pipes near the coast, particularly in areas like Bispham and South Shore. We resolve these with advanced high-pressure water jetting.

  • High Water Table: Exacerbating issues with broken or fractured pipes, requiring specialized CCTV inspection and repair methods.

We don’t just unblock drains; we provide Blackpool-specific solutions that last.

We understand that a blocked drain is stressful enough without worrying about hidden costs. We provide a clear, fixed-price guarantee for standard domestic drain clearances in Blackpool.

Advanced High-Pressure Water Jetting Technology

To ensure a permanent clearance, we rely on state-of-the-art high-pressure water jetting. This technology is far superior to standard rodding, utilizing powerful streams of water to cut through stubborn FOG deposits, root ingress, and hard scale. This is the fastest, cleanest, and most effective method for fully clearing the challenging drainage lines found in Blackpool’s diverse residential and commercial properties. We leave your pipes fully flushed and operating at maximum capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions About Blocked Drains in Blackpool & Fylde

1. How quickly can you get to my property in Blackpool?

As we are based locally on the Fylde Coast, we aim to provide a rapid emergency response. We guarantee to have an engineer dispatched to Blackpool, Poulton, or Lytham within 90 minutes of your call, 24/7, to resolve your blockage fast.

2. Do you charge a call-out fee for emergency blockages?

No. We operate a clear, fixed-price policy for standard domestic drain unblocking. You only pay the agreed-upon fixed rate for the work needed. There are absolutely no hidden call-out charges or extra fees.

3. What is high-pressure water jetting?

High-pressure water jetting is the most effective method for drain clearance. It uses powerful, high-velocity jets of water to cut through and flush away stubborn obstructions like fat, scale, debris, and even tree roots, ensuring the pipe is fully clear.

4. What should I do if my outside drain is overflowing?

Stop using all water immediately (toilets, sinks, showers). Avoid attempting to unblock it yourself with chemical cleaners, as this can be dangerous. Call our 24/7 Blackpool emergency number straight away for expert assistance.

5. What causes blocked drains most often in the Blackpool area?

In residential areas of the Fylde Coast, the most common causes are unflushable items (wipes), hair/soap scum, and FOG (Fat, Oil, Grease). Due to the local coastal environment, older pipes can also be susceptible to sand and silt ingress.

6. What areas of the Fylde Coast do you cover?

We provide full emergency coverage across all of the Fylde Coast and the wider Lancashire area, including Blackpool, Poulton-le-Fylde, Lytham St Annes, Fleetwood, Thornton-Cleveleys, and Kirkham.

7. Can you clear commercial blockages (e.g., in hotels or restaurants)?

Yes. We specialize in commercial drainage, including urgent, heavy-duty blockages caused by large volumes of FOG and trade waste—a frequent issue for Blackpool's extensive hospitality sector. We offer pre-planned maintenance contracts to prevent recurrence.

8. What if the blockage is caused by a collapsed or broken pipe?

If we cannot clear the blockage with jetting, we will immediately carry out a basic camera inspection to diagnose the structural issue. We can then provide a quote for permanent repairs, including trenchless drain lining options, minimizing disruption.

9. Do you guarantee your blocked drain clearance work?

Yes, all standard drain clearances are backed by our guarantee. If the same blockage recurs within a specified period (e.g., 90 days) due to our work, we will return to clear it free of charge.

10. Who is responsible for the blocked drain: the homeowner or United Utilities?

Generally, you are responsible for the drains inside the boundary of your property up to the public sewer connection. The public sewer is the responsibility of United Utilities. We can quickly determine the responsible party during our initial inspection.
