The National Drainage Company provides drain unblocking and drainage services across Liverpool, covering the L postcodes — Wavertree, Toxteth, Anfield, Allerton and the city centre. Pre-agreed prices, with jetting, CCTV and no-dig repairs.


Liverpool's dense Victorian terraces — in Wavertree, Toxteth, Kensington, Anfield and Everton — run on some of the country's oldest shared clay drainage, heavily loaded by conversions and student housing and prone to fat, wipe and root blockages. The city's grand Georgian Quarter hides pipework over 150 years old, while the region's high rainfall regularly tests the combined Victorian sewer network. In Liverpool, the public sewers are the responsibility of United Utilities, and we'll always flag when a blockage belongs to them rather than you.
Older terraces run on clay pipework that tree roots find and split at the joints.
Kitchens and food businesses keep drains under constant FOG pressure.
Converted flats share soil stacks, so one wipe can back up several homes.
Older surface drains and gullies silt up and struggle in heavy rain.
"Fast, tidy and did exactly what they said. Couldn't fault them."
"Showed me the problem on camera and sorted it properly. No hard sell."
"Reliable and professional — one call and it was handled."
