Blocked drains in Cricklewood: what we see most

Scaled stacks in converted terraces, grease on shared rear runs, and disputes over whose drain is whose. That is the pattern across NW2 and the Dollis Hill side of NW10. Cricklewood is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, most of them converted into flats, with the drainage problems that brings: cast-iron stacks serving three flats, shared rear drains that nobody owns, and gullies that take three kitchens’ worth of grease. We clear with jetting rather than rods, because rods push the blockage into the shared run and it comes back a fortnight later, and the camera goes down afterwards so you know whether it was a one-off or a joint that needs sealing.

Blocked drains in Cricklewood and nearby

Most blocked drains in Cricklewood are cleared on the first visit. The van carries rods, a 4,000 psi jetting unit and a CCTV camera, so a blockage in a gully, a manhole or a shared run behind the houses is cleared and camera-checked in one call-out. If the drain serves more than one property we tell you who is responsible before we start, and the work is quoted on site after the £49 call-out. For blocked drains that keep coming back, a CCTV drain survey shows why and drain relining repairs a cracked pipe without digging.

Blocked drains in Golders Green, Willesden and Hendon are covered from the same Hendon depot, usually within the hour. Read what to try first while you wait.

Yes, £49. It covers the engineer’s visit and the diagnosis. Anything beyond that is quoted on site before it starts, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Yes, and our guide tells you what is safe to try. Don’t pour caustic drain cleaner into a fully blocked drain; it sits in the pipe and burns the engineer who clears it.
