A Staple Hill drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.

Staple Hill sits in BS16, about two miles from central Kingswood, and it's a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces along the high street corridor, with pockets of 1960s and 70s semis spreading out behind. A lot of the properties here are privately rented or owner-occupied older stock, and that shows in the drains. We get called out regularly for blocked drains, collapsed clay pipes and slow-running kitchen waste lines. It's a busy residential patch and we know it well.

We come in along Soundwell Road or down through Mangotsfield Road depending on where the job is. The older terraced streets close to the high street sit on Victorian clay pipework, much of it original, with shared gully runs between back yards that block up every winter. The ground levels vary quite a bit across the area and there are mature street trees whose roots have been getting into pipe joints for decades. That combination of old clay, shared drainage and tree roots is what makes Staple Hill more demanding than newer estates.

Most common Staple Hill jobs

• Clearing blocked shared gully runs between Victorian terraces
• CCTV surveys on clay pipes showing root intrusion or displaced joints
• Unblocking kitchen waste lines in rented terraced properties
• Drain repairs where old clay pipe sections have cracked or collapsed
• Slow-draining outside gullies backed up with leaf and silt build-up
• Tracing which drain a landlord is responsible for before a tenancy dispute goes further
