A Locking drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.
Local Weston-super-Mare drainage engineers covering Locking. Blocked drains, high-pressure jetting, CCTV surveys and drain repairs, with a clear price agreed before we lift a cover.
Locking sits about three miles east of central Weston-super-Mare in BS22, a village that mixes older agricultural-era cottages with a significant spread of 1990s and 2000s residential estates that grew up around the original settlement. The housing stock ranges from characterful period properties near the village core to newer cul-de-sacs built when the area expanded. We get called out here for blocked drains, CCTV surveys on ageing clay pipes under older homes, and drainage issues on the newer builds where silt and root ingress are more common than people expect.
We come into Locking off the A371 or via Locking Road, dropping into the village from the west. The older cottages and farmhouses near the village centre sit on clay pipe drainage that's well past its best, and the mix of adopted and unadopted sewers on the newer estates catches people out when they're trying to work out who's responsible for a blocked or collapsed run. Mature hedgerows and trees near the older plots are a consistent source of root intrusion into pipe joints, which is something the newer estates don't have yet but will.

Locking FAQ
It depends on whether the sewer was adopted by Wessex Water after the estate was built. If it was adopted, Wessex Water own the shared section from the point two or more properties connect into it. If it wasn't adopted, you and your neighbour may share responsibility between you. We can run a CCTV survey to locate the blockage and identify exactly where it sits, which makes the ownership question a lot easier to resolve.
