Blocked Sinks in Ightham
Blocked Sinks in Ightham without unnecessary work or confusing jargon
With Blocked Sinks in Ightham, the aim is simple: identify the cause, record the evidence and give you a sensible plan.
My Blocked Sinks work in Ightham focuses on accurate findings rather than recommending unnecessary repairs.
Most blockages can be cleared without a camera survey, but recurring symptoms may justify checking the pipework afterwards.

How the Investigation Works
The immediate priority is to restore proper flow using suitable drainage equipment. Once clear, the drain is tested and the likely cause assessed. A camera survey is not automatically required, but it becomes useful when blockages repeat, the pipe does not clear normally, rats or roots are suspected, or there are signs of structural damage.
This avoids turning a simple clearance into unnecessary work while still giving recurring problems the investigation they deserve.
When This Service Is Appropriate
This service is appropriate when a drain, toilet, sink or outside drain is blocked or draining poorly. CCTV is considered where the problem is repeated, unusual or likely to involve a hidden defect.
Chris’s Professional Advice
Drainage systems often cross boundaries or connect with shared pipework. Ownership and responsibility may need checking before repairs are arranged.
A one-off blockage caused by wipes, excess paper or local debris may need no further investigation once the drain is fully cleared and tested.
Where possible, I show the customer the important findings and explain them in ordinary language.
What Happens Next
I first establish the reason for the visit and the most useful access points. I then carry out the relevant clearance, inspection or investigation, explain the findings and discuss proportionate options. Where another trade, pest controller, insurer or structural specialist is more appropriate, I say so.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you carry out commercial work?
Yes. Commercial drainage investigations can be planned around the property, access arrangements and reporting requirements.
What happens if part of the drain cannot be reached?
I explain the limitation and what additional access or clearance may be needed. I do not describe an unseen section as inspected.
Can you inspect after a blockage has been cleared?
Yes. This is often the best time to inspect where a blockage has been recurring or the cause remains uncertain.
How quickly can work be arranged?
Availability varies, so it is best to call or WhatsApp with the location and a brief description of the problem.
Do you charge VAT?
No VAT is added to my prices.
Will a survey always find the cause?
A survey often provides valuable evidence, but access, submerged sections, inaccessible branches or non-drainage causes can limit what can be confirmed.
Is there a call-out charge?
There is no separate call-out charge. The price and scope are discussed as clearly as possible before work starts.
Can you map the route of a drain?
In many cases, yes. Drain tracing and observations from access points can help establish routes, connections and likely positions.
Can I send photos first?
Yes. Photos, previous reports and a short history can help me understand what may be needed before attending.
Can you clear the drain before inspecting it?
Yes. A blocked or heavily soiled pipe often needs clearing first so the camera can show the underlying condition.
Can roots be seen during an inspection?
Usually yes. Root ingress often appears clearly, although heavy blockage or standing water may need clearing before the full extent can be assessed.
Will I receive clear advice?
Yes. I explain the important findings in plain English and distinguish between urgent work, sensible maintenance and items that may simply be monitored.
