Toilets, downstairs sinks, kitchen waste, outside drains, gullies, and inspection chambers are standard fixes for us across Reigate. What's distinctive here is the number of larger period and detached properties, particularly towards the Heath and below Reigate Hill, which often bring longer drainage runs and older inspection chamber layouts than a typical terraced house. Soakaways, main drain connections and CCTV surveys round things out, alongside drainage work for the independent shops and offices around the High Street.
Toilets
Backing up because of an outside drain blockage, not internal plumbing.
Ground-floor sinks
Draining slowly or overflowing due to blocked external pipes.
Manholes & chambers
Inspection chambers in the garden or driveway that have surcharged.
Downpipes & gullies
Rainwater downpipes and gully outlets that won't clear.
Soakaways
Systems that aren't draining water away as they should.
Commercial drainage
Foul and surface water systems for businesses of any size.
Why Do Drains Get Blocked?
Greensand and sandstone sit beneath Reigate, below the North Downs escarpment, which is quite different from the heavier clay found in neighbouring towns, though plenty of gardens still hold water after a spell of rain. Fat and grease build-up in kitchens and wet wipes flushed down toilets are the usual culprits, whatever the property type. In Reigate’s older and larger homes, long-established gardens with mature trees mean root ingress into ageing pipework comes up often, and displaced joints are common where Victorian or Edwardian drainage has settled with age.
Kitchen habits
Fat, grease and food waste hardening inside the pipe.
Bathroom items
Wet wipes and sanitary products — even 'flushable' ones.
Nature
Tree roots, silt and leaves finding their way in.
Wear & tear
Scale build-up, cracks or old pipe materials failing.
Build issues
Renovation debris or pipes laid at the wrong gradient.
How We Fix It, Our 5-Step Process
-
Call and rapid response
Describe the issue, and an engineer is dispatched to your Reigate address, usually the same day.
- On-site diagnosis Given how long drainage runs can be on Reigate's larger properties, a complimentary CCTV look-see survey is often used to pinpoint exactly where the blockage sits.
- Clearing the blockage High-pressure jetting, rodding or mechanical drain milling, chosen to suit the pipe and the problem.
-
Confirming the fix
Once your drain is flowing freely, we show you the evidence, and where appropriate we carry out a complimentary 10-minute CCTV look-see afterwards to check nothing more serious is hiding further down the line.
- Reporting and next steps Where no-dig lining or a patch repair is needed, the findings are explained clearly, with a free estimate to follow.
Reigate Case Study
Recent Drainage Work in Reigate
One of our engineers, Darren, was called to a blocked kitchen waste system at a property in Oakley Mead, Godstone. It looked routine at first, but after a proper investigation Darren found the real cause. A newly fitted kitchen had been plumbed into an old surface-water soakaway instead of the foul drainage system, and over time grease and food waste had clogged it completely. He explained the findings to the customer using the CCTV footage and set out a proper long-term fix, rather than just clearing the blockage and moving on. That’s the difference with ASL. We don’t unblock the drain and leave, we find out why it happened in the first place. Read the full job, with photos and the repair we recommended, on our case study.

FAQs
How quickly can you get to me in Reigate?
Same-day response across Reigate and the surrounding villages is the aim, with most blockages cleared within 30 minutes of arrival.
How much does it cost to unblock a drain in Reigate?
The blockage, the length of the drainage run and the equipment needed all feed into the price, though most jobs come to under £100 including VAT. We always give you a free, no-obligation quote first.
Who is responsible for the drain, me or the water company?
Thames Water is generally responsible for the public sewer in Reigate. However, pipework within your boundary is down to you, including the longer private runs common on larger properties.
Are older, larger properties in Reigate more prone to drainage problems?
Longer drainage runs and mature gardens mean ASL does see more root ingress and settled joints on Reigate's larger, older properties than on newer housing.
What is a CCTV drain survey, and do I need one?
A camera inspection that pins down the exact cause and location of a blockage. Once we've cleared your drain we add a complimentary 10-minute look-see, confirming it has run clear and photographing or flagging any defect worth knowing about. A fuller survey is only needed if a fault keeps returning.
Can you fix a drain without digging up my garden?
We do our best with no-dig lining or patch repair, depending on what the survey shows.
