Blocked Drains Kent Specialists

What to do if you have a blocked drain

With the amount of things we wash down our drains without a second thought, it is inevitable that the build-up will cause issues at some point down the line. In many cases, a drain cleaner purchased from a supermarket will suffice, but only for the short-term. Here, we will explore more about what to do if you have a blocked drain. There are various non-professional options that you can explore, from hiring equipment from a tool store to trying to use a plunger to move on whatever is causing a block. However, in the majority of cases, it’s easier and much more time-efficient to call in the professionals. Blocked Drains Kent – calling in the professionals There are many benefits that you do not even think about when choosing a professional to come and unblock your drains. Many times, people automatically rule out professional plumbers in Kent as they feel it will be too expensive, but here’s why this isn’t always the case: 1) Sink un-blockers cost about £5 per use and only temporally fix what is likely to be an on-going issue. If you use one bottle every two months that is £30 you’re spending on drain cleaning products. 2) Taking on the issue yourself will take up your time, more time than it would take a professional. This is time you could be doing other things with. 3) Taking on work by yourself could mean you cause damage to the drain, which may require professional drain repair or another service like drain cleaning. Why should you choose DT Facilities Kent? As leading Kent plumbers, DT Facilities is one of the leading blocked drains Kent specialists. A cost-effective company with over 15 years of experience in this industry, DT Facilities also offers a number of other services as well, which means they can be your home maintenance company in Kent.

The recent flooding that has occurred has seen the calls for local plumbers in Herne Bay and surrounding areas to rocket, we have attended various properties that have suffered some flooding and provided pumps or heaters & dehumidifiers to help. The floods have also caused lots of problems with rain water soak aways. Soak aways are just large holes in the ground and either crates or stone filled to soak up the rain water that comes down from the roof into the gutter then down into the soak away. With the heavy rain fall we have been having the soak aways have not be able to take the take the amount of water. Taking calls for emergency plumbers to attend, we have found that on arrival the rain has stopped and the problem has subsided. We then can only advise to wait for what we would call normal rain fall and see if the soak away takes the down poor. Most of the time it will, but sometimes we get called back and a new soak away is required. If you are in need of a local plumber contact us now for a free quote or just some friendly advise

Drain unblocking Whitstable

Blocked drains Whitstable Kent

A local surveyor that looks after some properties in Whitstable called into the office today as they had one of their rented properties where the drains were blocked and backing up into the toilets. The manholes on site were over flowing causing a serious hazard as there were young children on site. We sent a drainage engineer out on an emergency basis as the information given was there is sewage seeping out of the manholes and there are children on site On arrival we found several manholes blocked on site running through three rear gardens, the drainage system was cleared using high pressure water jetting. A look see camera survey was then carried out. The findings were that the pipe work under the lawn had dropped causing an area of water to hold, grease then builds up in the area of holding water and eventually the drains start to block. In this case, drain lining is not an option so a DVD of the drains was provided to the surveyor, and a written quote to excavate the damage drain was Provided. The tenants asked if they could still use the drains, we explained that we would jet the drains through to remove the grease build up so they could continue to use there facilities until the excavation work was carried out and the damaged drain repaired. The following day we was called by the owner and advised to carry out the excavation work to the drainage system, the pipe work was replaced with UPVC pipe. the levels of the drain were taken before and after to confirm there was enough fall between the two drains. On completion a further cctv drainage survey was carried out to check the pipe work.

Boiler installer kent | Plumbers Kent

We were called to install a boiler in dartford by the kent loft company. The builder was converting the garage and completing a loft conversion. The property will be 5 bedrooms and 2 bathroom, the customer requested a Worcester Bosch 42cdi to cope with the hot water demand on arrival.

The customer also wanted her new combi boiler installed in the loft but after discussing with them about the time it would take to get hot water from the boiler to the tap would not be very cost efficient so they opted to install the boiler at middle level for even distribution. By installing the boiler at middle level this meant the flue would have to be vertical, so a new flue was run from the boiler through the new walk in cupboard and through the roof. The builder was completing a whole new tiled roof, so a weathering slate was left on the flue for the builder to tile around, and after the existing boiler was drained down a chemical flush via a manga cleanse was carried out.

While removing the old boiler the gas fitters found the gas pipe was not big enough for the new boiler so a new gas run was carried out from the meter to the boiler. The customer was an electrician so was going to earth bond the metre himself. The hot and cold pipe work was extended from the ground floor to connect to the new boiler along with the flow and returns as the existing boiler was below the new boiler the condensate pipe and safety discharge pipe was run-in a newly build stud wall to hide the view of them and terminated safely into the gutter. The gas was then tested for tightness and let by of the control valve as soon as the test was complete and passed. The boiler was then commissioned and all the appropriate tests was carried out on the flue. A gas analyser was added to the flue to print out a safety and energy report once the boiler was working correctly the benchmark book was filled out and left with the customer, gas safe and Worcester was notified for the warranty.
