Every blockage is different. That's why our engineers follow a structured approach to identify the cause, clear the blockage safely and help prevent it from returning.
Initial Assessment
Our engineer inspects the drainage issue, identifies symptoms and determines the safest and most effective solution.
Drain Clearance
Using professional high-pressure water jetting and specialist equipment, we remove grease, roots, scale, silt and debris.
CCTV Inspection
Where required, CCTV cameras inspect the drainage system to identify damaged pipework, root ingress or structural issues.
Long-Term Solution
If defects are discovered, we can recommend patch lining, UV lining or specialist repairs to prevent recurring problems.
What causes blocked drains?
Many drainage issues build up over time. Identifying the underlying cause allows our engineers to recommend the most effective long-term solution rather than simply treating the symptoms.
Tree Roots
Roots naturally seek moisture and can enter damaged joints, restricting flow and causing recurring blockages if left untreated.
Wet Wipes & Sanitary Products
Unlike toilet paper, many products do not break down properly and can create stubborn blockages inside drainage systems.
Fat, Oil & Grease
Kitchen waste hardens inside pipework, gradually restricting flow until a complete blockage develops.
Damaged Pipework
Collapsed or cracked drains can trap debris and prevent wastewater from flowing freely through the system.
Leaves & Silt
External drainage systems can become blocked by natural debris, especially during periods of heavy rainfall and autumn leaf fall.
Poor Installation
Incorrect pipe gradients, displaced joints or ageing drainage infrastructure can all contribute to ongoing drainage problems.
Clearing the blockage is only the first step.
Our engineers focus on restoring flow quickly, but also identifying why the blockage happened so the right long-term solution can be recommended.
Domestic drain backing up repeatedly
A property had slow-draining wastewater and recurring blockages after heavy use.
High-pressure water jetting was used to clear the obstruction and restore normal flow.
Hidden defect causing repeat blockages
A blocked drain kept returning even after previous clearance attempts.
A CCTV drain survey identified the underlying defect so the correct repair method could be planned.
Blocked drainage affecting business operations
A commercial site needed fast drainage support to reduce disruption and avoid further downtime.
The AJS team responded with professional drainage equipment and a clear action plan.

When a blockage keeps returning, CCTV inspection can reveal the real problem.
Clearing a blocked drain restores flow, but if the same issue keeps happening, there may be a deeper problem inside the drainage system.
AJS Environmental can use CCTV drain survey equipment to inspect pipework internally, identify structural defects and recommend the right next step, from cleaning and maintenance to patch lining or no-dig repair.
More than simply clearing a blockage.
Our objective isn't just to restore flow. We aim to identify the cause, minimise disruption and provide practical long-term drainage solutions that help prevent the problem returning.
Fast Response
Rapid attendance for blocked drains, helping reduce disruption, flooding and damage to homes and commercial premises.
CCTV Investigation
If the blockage is recurring, we can inspect the drainage system internally to locate hidden defects before recommending repairs.

High-pressure jetting, specialist drain cleaning equipment and no-dig repair technologies allow us to tackle a wide range of drainage problems efficiently.
