What we fix

Blocked drain in Worthing? Here’s how we clear it.

Worthing drains range from Victorian clay runs near the seafront to plastic pipes on new estates in West Durrington. We clear the blockage first, then use a camera to show you why it happened and whether it is likely to come back.

  • High-pressure jetting and rodding of drains and gullies
  • CCTV survey, with the footage shown to you on site
  • Roots cut out of older clay pipes
  • Fat and grease cleared from restaurant and café drains
  • Shared drain problems reported to Southern Water

Local knowledge

Why drains block in Worthing

Older parts of Worthing, around Heene, Broadwater and the town centre, still drain through the original clay pipes. The joints move over the years. Once one opens up, roots and grease catch on the edge, and the drain blocks again and again. A camera survey shows whether that is happening.

Leafy streets in Offington and Broadwater have big trees near the drains. Roots look for water and grow into joints. They can be cut out with a jetting head, but if the pipe is cracked they will come back, and you need a repair.

Drains serving more than one property, and those outside your boundary, have usually been the responsibility of Southern Water since October 2011. Southern Water is the sewerage company for Worthing. We locate the blockage before we start. If it is on their side, we tell you, so you do not pay for work that is not yours.

Cafés and restaurants along Warwick Street, Montague Street and the seafront put a lot of fat into the drains. If you run a food business, we can clear a blocked drain early in the morning or after you close, so you can keep trading. We can also tell you how often the drain or grease trap should be cleaned to keep it running.

Questions

Blocked drain in Worthing? Common questions

If the drain only serves your home and sits inside your boundary, it is yours. If it is shared with neighbours, or outside your boundary, it is usually Southern Water’s. We find where the blockage is and tell you before charging for anything.
