Drain Jetting — frequently asked questions

Is high-pressure drain jetting safe for old pipes?

Yes, provided it is carried out by experienced engineers who understand the limitations of different pipe materials. We routinely jet clay, cast iron, and PVC pipes across Bath's older housing stock, always calibrating the pressure to suit the pipe type and condition.

How often should drains be jetted?

For a typical Bath household, an annual or biannual jetting session keeps pipes in excellent condition and prevents gradual buildup from developing into a blockage. Commercial kitchens, restaurants, and takeaways usually benefit from quarterly jetting due to the higher volume of fats and grease entering the system.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. When you book Bath Plumbers, there is no separate fee just for attending your property. You are only invoiced for the actual drainage work we carry out, and we confirm the price before we start.

How quickly can you arrive in an emergency?

For pressing drainage problems across Bath and surrounding areas within 25 miles, our nearest available engineer is typically on site within sixty to ninety minutes. Response times may vary during peak periods or severe weather, but we always communicate realistic arrival estimates when you call.

Are you available for emergencies?

Absolutely. Our emergency drainage team operates twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, including bank holidays. Whether it is a sewage backup at midnight in Bathwick or a flooded manhole on a Sunday morning in Widcombe, call 01225 000000 and we will dispatch an engineer immediately.

How much does drain unblocking cost?

Every blockage is different, so we provide a fixed quote based on the access available, the severity of the obstruction, and whether any structural repairs are required. You will know the exact cost before we begin, with no surprise charges added afterwards.
