Customer Review

Drain Cleaning and Unblocking
The FS Drainage team is able to address blockages of all types, whether it be blocked toilets, a blocked drain, or problems with surrounding sewer systems. Our approach starts with identifying the cause of the blockage, whether it's built-up grease, tree roots, or foreign objects, and then selecting the most effective method for removal. We use state-of-the-art equipment including high-pressure water jets and specialised cleaning tools to ensure thorough results.
CCTV Camera Surveys
Modern drainage solutions require modern technology: our CCTV drain surveys provide detailed insights into the condition of your drainage system, helping identify blockages, damage, and potential future issues. Being a totally non-invasive approach, this allows us to precisely locate problems and plan the most effective repair strategy, without having to dig up pipes or make your home unlivable while we work.
DRAIN JETTING
High-pressure water jetting is one of our most effective tools for clearing a blocked drain. Using only water, this powerful technique can remove years of built-up debris, grease, and scale from your pipes, restoring them to full working order. Our professional-grade jetting equipment can tackle even the most challenging blockages while being safe for your drainage system and even safer for the planet. The high-pressure water breaks down and flushes away obstructions without damaging your pipes, and this can be performed once a year to keep your water system in tip-top condition.
DRAIN REPAIRS
From minor repairs to complete pipe replacements, our team at FS Drainage is ready to handle all aspects of drain repair work for our Chelmsford customers. Whether it's fixing a cracked pipe, performing toilet unblocking, replacing a damaged section, or addressing problems with water pressure, we have the expertise to complete the job efficiently, quickly, and with minimal impact on your day-to-day life. Our repairs are also designed to prevent future issues and extend the life of your drainage system - and we pride ourselves on offering excellent customer service to boot.
Emergency Drainage Services
Drainage emergencies don't wait for convenient times, which is why we offer 24/7 emergency response services. Drainage problems? Block toilets? Struggling to unblock drains? Whatever the problem, our emergency team is always ready to tackle urgent drainage issues, reaching you as quickly as we possibly can to prevent further damage to your property. Our emergency service includes immediate action to prevent flooding and water damage while we work on a permanent solution.
Drain Relining
When pipes are damaged but still structurally sound, drain relining offers a cost-effective repair solution. This innovative technique creates a new pipe within the existing one, sealing cracks and preventing further deterioration. It's less disruptive than traditional pipe replacement, and often requires no excavation work. And what's even better, the new lining is durable and can significantly extend the life of your drainage system while preventing future drain blockages and drainage problems.
