iDrain was recently called to a property in Clapham after the occupants experienced a blocked drain. Our drainage engineer attended the property to investigate the problem and establish what was preventing the drainage system from working correctly.

During the clearance work, the engineer retrieved a broken manhole cover from within the drainage system. A substantial accumulation of silt and slurry was also discovered, which had restricted the flow and contributed to the blockage.

Once the obstruction had been removed, all manholes at the property were thoroughly cleaned. The drainage system was then checked to confirm that the blockage had been completely cleared and that the drains had been restored to their full flow capacity.

Broken materials, silt and other debris can gradually collect inside a drain and eventually cause a serious blockage. If you notice slow drainage, unpleasant smells, rising water or overflowing manholes, arranging an inspection quickly can help prevent the problem from becoming worse.
