Professional Drain Cleaning & Planned Maintenance in Blackpool
Proactive Drainage Solutions to Prevent Blockages and Protect Your Property
Most drainage issues are avoidable. While many companies only react when a flood occurs, we specialize in Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) and advanced cleaning techniques that keep your system running at 100% capacity. Serving both domestic and commercial clients across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast, we use industry-leading technology to remove scale, fat, and debris before they cause a crisis. Our methods adhere to the high standards set by the Water Research Centre (WRc) for drainage system health and efficiency.
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) Contracts
For commercial properties, restaurants, and busy households, a PPM contract is the most cost-effective way to manage drainage. Emergency call-outs are expensive and disruptive; our planned visits are the opposite.
-
Bespoke Schedules: We design a maintenance plan based on your usage—whether that’s quarterly, bi-annually, or yearly.
-
Reduced Risk: Regular high-pressure water jetting removes the build-up of Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) that lead to major obstructions.
-
Compliance: For commercial kitchens and businesses, our maintenance records provide the proof of professional upkeep required for insurance and health inspections.
-
Asset Longevity: Clean pipes last longer. By removing corrosive build-up, we extend the lifespan of your underground infrastructure and prevent the need for costly drain repairs in the future.
Specialist Drain Descaling Services
Older properties in Poulton and Blackpool often suffer from “scale”—a hard, mineralized crust that forms on the internal walls of cast iron and clay pipes. This scale catches debris like wet wipes and tissue, leading to frequent, recurring blockages.
Our specialist descaling service uses high-speed mechanical cleaners and targeted jetting heads to strip away years of mineral build-up. We restore the pipe to its original diameter, significantly improving flow rates and eliminating the “snagging” points that cause repeated clogs.
High-Pressure Water Jetting (HPWJ)
We don’t just “rod” a drain; we deep-clean it. Our van-mounted jetting units deliver water at pressures up to 4000 PSI, effectively scrubbing the internal walls of the pipe.
Silt & Debris Removal: Ideal for surface water drains and gullies that become choked with sand, soil, and leaves.
Fat & Grease Stripping: Vital for commercial food preparation environments where grease solidifies inside the lines.
Root Management: Regular cleaning can prevent minor root hairs from developing into a structural disaster.
The Maintenance Process: What to Expect
When you book a maintenance visit or a descaling session, we follow a rigorous process to ensure the job is done correctly:
-
Initial Flow Test: We assess the current performance of your system.
-
CCTV Visual Check: We often perform a quick camera look-see using our CCTV inspection equipment to identify areas of heavy scaling or fat build-up.
-
Precision Cleaning: Using our high-pressure units, we clean the entire run, not just the area near the manhole.
-
Final Inspection: We verify that the pipe walls are clear and the flow is fully restored.
