Botley runs from a village core out to properties on private drainage, which changes what a blockage means. Drain clearance, CCTV surveys, jetting, gullies and repairs in Botley, with the camera down the run so you see what we found.
Botley is village housing with a good deal of land around it, which means long private runs, soakaways doing the surface water rather than a mains connection, and blockages that have often been building quietly for a couple of years before anybody notices. In practice most of what we are called out to in Botley is blocked drains, with everything else on the list available alongside it.
Outside drains, chambers and soil stacks cleared, inside or out.

Botley is village housing with a good deal of land around it, which means long private runs, soakaways doing the surface water rather than a mains connection, and blockages that have often been building quietly for a couple of years before anybody notices. Every job starts with the covers coming up and a look at which chambers are holding water, rather than a price guessed over the phone.
No. Botley is about 6 miles from the Southampton base, well inside the daily patch, so travel is in the price and an emergency callout there is a normal run rather than a special trip.
Yes. Botley runs from a village core out to properties on private drainage, which changes what a blockage means. Ring and we will tell you what we normally find in the drainage around Square and what your job is likely to involve before anyone gets in the van.
It does, and it changes what a blockage means. A lot of Botley property has long private runs, and some of it drains to a soakaway or a private system rather than to a mains sewer. Nobody else is going to maintain any of that, so problems build until something surfaces. It also means a survey is worth more here than in town, because knowing where your run actually goes is half the battle when something goes wrong on a wet weekend.
Yes, and in Botley it is often the thing worth doing first. The camera runs chamber to chamber with the depth and distance on screen, and you get the recording along with a plain account of what was found and where. That matters when somebody else has to act on it: an insurer, a buyer's solicitor, a landlord or the water company all want evidence rather than a description.
Botley is around 6 miles from the Southampton base, so an emergency callout there is usually well inside a couple of hours and frequently a good deal quicker. The line is answered at night, at weekends and on bank holidays, and you get a realistic time on the phone rather than an optimistic one.
Call and we will tell you what it is likely to be before we set off.
Send a few details and we will come back with a price. If it is an emergency, ring instead and we will get to you quicker.
