Why drains block in Romford
Romford and the wider borough of Havering are mostly interwar semis around Gidea Park and Harold Wood, built on heavy London clay. The clay shrinks in dry summers and swells in wet winters, which cracks and displaces drain joints. Shops and takeaways in the town centre see regular grease blockages.
Clay ground movement
Heavy clay moves with the seasons and cracks drain joints under interwar homes in Gidea Park and Harold Wood.
Grease in the town centre
Takeaways and restaurants around Romford town centre build up fat and grease in shared drains.
Older clay pipes
Original pipework in older streets holds waste at cracked joints, so drains block repeatedly.
Drains we have cleared in Romford
Recurring outside drain blockage
The outside drain had blocked a couple of times, and the customer wanted to know why it kept happening. We cleared a build-up of wipes and other debris with jetting and checked the flow. We also discussed having a CCTV survey if the problem returned.
Blocked drain behind a shop
A shop owner called because water was draining very slowly from the back of the premises. We cleared grease and sediment from the waste line and tested it afterwards, so the drainage was working properly again.

What customers in Romford say
Rated 4.9 out of 5 · 500+ reviews
“The gully down the side of the house had stopped draining. They came out, dealt with it and left everything neat. Good service.”
“We've got older drains at our place in Gidea Park and they've been playing up. The engineer took the time to explain what was going on instead of rushing off. Appreciated that.”
“Had a nasty smell coming from the drain behind our shop. Arranging access was simple and they worked around our opening hours. Very helpful.”
