In modern Britain we’re fortunate enough to have a highly efficient sewer system that takes care of all manner of waste. However some properties are without the capability to connect to the mains sewer system due to their remote or inaccessible location. In these circumstances, a team like ours here at Total Drainage Services will have installed one of three sewage disposal facilities; a septic tank, sewage pumps or a sewage treatment plant. Each can provide adequate waste disposal for most properties, but only if they are cleaned and maintained periodically by experts in drain cleaning Warwickshire like us.

The cleaning requirements differ according to the sewerage disposal facility in place. Perhaps most obviously, septic tanks require regular emptying and cleaning to maintain their efficiency. Septic tanks are watertight units which are situated out of sight below ground. Solid and liquid waste from the normal activities of the building are deposited in the tank and allowed to decompose.

Liquid waste is then dispersed harmlessly into the soil below ground by means of a soakaway system. However, without regular cleaning, solid waste will be forced down the soakaway systems too, causing blockages which can be incredibly unpleasant for nearby inhabitants should waste begin to overflow. Regular cleaning and emptying by Total Drainage Services technicians using CCTV surveys ensures this never happens.

We can also clean, maintain and install the machinery used in sewage treatment plants. Common on industrial sites and at locations near watercourses, these below ground facilities work by chemically treating waste until it is rendered inert and acceptable to be deposited in watercourses under Environment Agency standards.

Finally, we can clean and maintain the pumps used in some locations to transport waste to the mains sewerage system located at a distance away. As before, this avoids the soiling of nearby areas. For more information regarding sewer and drain cleaning Warwickshire, get in touch today.

Clearing blocked drains Leicestershire is the absolute last resort. A blockage represents the final stage in a build up of debris that will have been developing for some time. Regular drain cleaning can help; in addition to making sure that no inappropriate waste water is allowed to enter the drainage system (such as chemical or construction waste). However, if a blockage does strike, Total Drainage Services are on hand to offer assistance. We’re familiar with every drain configuration in use today and our innovative CCTV surveys allow us to handle even the most complex of systems with multiple blockages.

A blocked drain doesn’t just cause bad odours and flooding, it can also lead to more substantial damage. Underground leakage can lead to grass becoming soiled and water logged, which can disrupt nearby animal and plant life. If you have a blocked drain at home or work you could be jeopardising the external aesthetics of your property and the grounds.

At this time of year, blocked drains can be particularly unpleasant. The warmer weather means that odours are magnified and heavy thunderstorms can cause systems to overflow.

Here at Total Drainage Services we use a combination of dye and electronic testing to ascertain the location and nature of a blockage. Rather than wasting time and money struggling to identify the problem, we’ve invested in qualified staff and industry leading technology in order to reduce the time it takes for us to complete the job and leave clients in peace.

Our colour CCTV surveys allows us to show customers the problem first hand, aiding us in our explanation of the proposed remedy. As well established drainage consultants with a reputation to uphold, the Total Drainage Services team always makes sure that clients are comfortable for work to be done before beginning. This way unblocking blocked drains Leicestershire doesn’t restrict your cash flow unexpectedly.

A blocked drain is probably not something most people want to think about, but it’s important that such a problem is addressed speedily and in a professional manner. It’s doubly important that shops and businesses deal with blocked drains promptly, to avoid a negative impact upon the business’ reputation. Here at Total Drainage Services, we understand the delicate situation sometimes involved in drain unblocking and that’s why we offer such a considerate service in drain cleaning Leicestershire and the nearby area.  We use methods such as high pressure water jetting, pushrods and CCTV surveys to get the job done discreetly.

Usually, high pressure water jetting is all that is required to get the job done. Quite simply, drain cleaning companies like the Total Drainage team use innovative jetting equipment to propel water through the drainage system in such a way that blockages are harmlessly dislodged, returning drains to optimum efficiency.

However, here at Total Drainage we’re also equipped to deal with more serious blockages which resist such treatment. Using state of the art colour CCTV surveys, we can gain a close up view of the blockage in question in real time, which can be viewed by the customer if necessary.

Not only does this allow us to formulate an effective solution quickly, it also means that clients are confident that we’re only doing exactly what is required, nothing more and nothing less. In complicated circumstances, qualified engineers will compose sketches with which to describe the proposed solution to the property owner.

Here at Total Drainage, we provide free quotations, don’t charge for call outs and only complete work which is agreed upon in advance.
