When you have a drain blockage in NW10, we are typically 60 to 90 minutes away. We work across Willesden, Harlesden and Kensal Green and everything nearby, day and night, every day of the year.
What we cover in NW10
NW10 covers Willesden, Harlesden and Kensal Green, inside Brent. Homes, flats and commercial premises are all covered, whatever the size of the job.
Willesden, Harlesden and Kensal Green combine terraced streets with commercial and light industrial units on the main routes. Grease and wipes from commercial premises enter the same network as the housing.
Common causes in NW10
The causes we see most often in NW10 are much the same year to year:
- A restriction that has been forming for months, finished off by one heavy load
- A structural fault in the pipe holding back solids
- A blockage on pipework shared with neighbours
- Storm water using the same pipe as the foul waste
Signs worth reporting
What you are likely to be seeing in NW10:
- Water standing in an outside gully long after use
- More than one appliance backing up, rather than a single sink
- Bubbling in the pan when the bath is let out
- A drain smell outside that is stronger in warm weather
How the visit works
Finding the cause comes before clearing it:
- Make the property safe on arrival
- Locate the blockage by working through the chambers
- Clear it by jetting or mechanically
- Explain the cause and whether the pipe needs more than clearing
Before we arrive
In the meantime, these few things genuinely help:
- Keep water use to nothing, particularly appliances on a timer
- Cordon off contaminated ground
- Clear access to the drain covers if you can
- Note which fittings are affected so we arrive prepared
Who pays for the repair
Before anyone invoices you, it is worth knowing where the fault sits. A private drain serving one building is the owner’s; beyond that, and on anything shared, it is generally the water company’s. We put that in writing after the visit.
What it costs in NW10
