Are you prepared for a Sewage Emergency?

It makes sense to have emergency numbers for known and trusted services written down.

Have you set up a fast and professional service for any situation?

The last thing any home or business owner needs is for their drainage system to suddenly fail. That’s why ASL Limited is ready and waiting to offer a genuine 12-hour unblocking, repair, and cleaning services for any sewage emergency found on a private, public, or commercial property. No matter what caused your pipes to fail, we’ll provide the fast and professional solution you need to get them back to perfect working order.

Whether a blockage in a pipe is causing a sewage backup in your home, your water meter has an unusually high reading that may be a sign of a leak, or water is pooling in your garden, making you suspect a water pipe has burst, call us now. Burst water mains can cause sewer pipes to collapse, leading to a sewage emergency. The damage may be covered by your insurance policy under accidental damage. The insurance company will require us to have a camera to record the damage and an accompanying report detailing recommendations and costs.

We have all the tools and skills needed to handle your water and sewage emergencies to the highest standards and at the level you need for your property.

Call-Outs for Water and Sewage Emergencies

It’s crucial to handle any sewage emergency quickly and efficiently, whether it’s on your property and potentially your responsibility to fix or even in the public sewers outside your boundaries, which should be handled by your local water company. If there’s a problem with a drain on your property, we can be there at any time of the day to repair it as part of our priority services, helping you get back to your daily life as soon as possible.
If it’s discovered that your drainage issue extends beyond your property boundary, we’ll also assist you by advising you on who to contact. If you’re unsure about the fault in your system, contact us today, and we’ll happily conduct a fault-finding check. Before we handle the emergency sewage cleanup and repair for you, or assist you in reporting the problem to your insurance company or the appropriate authority, we’ll provide you with this information.

Our Services for Sewage Emergencies

When you call us about any sewage emergency on your property, we have several services available:

• Emergency drain unblocking
• Emergency drain cleaning
• Emergency drain repair
• Emergency drain relining
• Emergency drain replacement
• Same-day septic tank emptying

Unblocking and Cleaning Sewage Emergencies

We have various methods to unblock and completely clear your drains if there’s a blockage severe enough to cause them to back up and overflow. The method or equipment we use depends on the type of blockage, so your problem may be resolved with a drain rod, an industrial-strength wet vac, or even high-powered drain jetting. For more information about each service, contact us today, and one of our expert team members will provide detailed explanations.

Emergency Drain Repair and Replacement

We have two popular methods for repairing drains, and our choice depends on the severity of the issue. In the worst cases, we may need to excavate the pipe for repair, but if there’s a crack causing the leak, we can use no-dig technology to re-line the pipe, sealing it and preventing future water or sewage emergencies.
If the pipe is too old or damaged to be repaired, we’ll, under your instructions and with your permission, replace it with a completely new section that will last for many years.

Things You Can Do to Prevent Water and Sewage Emergencies

To prevent sewage emergencies in your home or business, there are several things you can do. These measures may vary depending on the type of system you have, but they all help prevent backups, damaged pipes, and sewage spills on your property.
Here are some ways to help your drainage system:

• Don’t pour fats, grease, or oils into your kitchen drains.
• Only flush human waste and toilet paper.
• Use strainers in sinks and showers to catch food, soap particles, and hair.
• Ensure your drains are cleaned regularly, every two years, depending on usage and circumstances.
• Empty septic tanks completely about a month before any large gathering.
• Avoid letting surface water or rainwater enter your system, as this could overwhelm your private system or the public treatment works.
• Don’t plant trees near where your pipes run to prevent roots from invading them.
• If you have a private system, inform and instruct contractors accordingly.
• Avoid letting roof and surface water enter the sewage system to protect your private system or the public treatment works.
• Don’t allow contractors to pour paint or cement down drains after renovation work.

If you suspect an emergency, such as a burst water main pipe, the first thing you should do is turn off your stop tap. This will prevent more water from flowing through the system, which will stop the leak from undermining your sewage pipes or the foundations of your house, thereby limiting any potential damage. While this action won’t prevent an emergency, it will prevent it from worsening.
