We’re The Drain Unblocking Company, a family-run drainage business based in Cheadle, covering Stockport and Greater Manchester. When you call or WhatsApp us, you’re talking to the people who do the work, not a call centre or a sales team.

Over the last 10 years we’ve completed more than 3,000 jobs, from simple blocked drains to CCTV investigations, no-dig patch repairs and excavations, for homes and businesses alike.

Our approach

How We Work

If it isn’t broken, we won’t fix it

We diagnose the problem properly and recommend the most sensible fix first. Sometimes a simple unblock is all that’s needed.

Evidence before repairs

If we think a drain is damaged, we’ll show you on camera and explain the options clearly before any work is carried out.

Fixed prices, no surprises

Domestic unblocking is a fixed £75 + VAT for rods or a plunger and £150 + VAT for jetting, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. Evenings, weekends and bank holidays may cost more, and we’ll tell you the rate before we set off.

Small and personal

You deal with us directly, from the first call to the finished job. We’re open 24/7, and phone or WhatsApp is always the best way to reach us.

Raising standards

Doing Drainage Properly

The drainage industry has a reputation for cowboy operators and misleading prices, and we’re trying to change that. Our prices are clear, we give honest advice instead of pushing unnecessary work, and we’d rather tell you a drain is fine than sell you a repair you don’t need.

Got a big repair quote from another company? Send us your own CCTV footage and we’ll review it for free. Read how to check a drainage company before you book and what our customers say.
