Drain Unblocking in Greenock

Greenock is one of our key service areas in Inverclyde, a town with a proud industrial heritage and a large stock of older tenement housing. These late Victorian and Edwardian properties have real character, but their drainage systems were built with materials and to a design that predates modern standards. Clay pipes, cast iron soil stacks, and lead connections are common throughout the older housing stock and deteriorate steadily over time - cracking, corroding, and accumulating decades of scale and grease. Shared drainage runs serving multiple flats were also rarely designed with today's water usage in mind, and inadequate capacity means that when one section becomes partially blocked, several households can be affected simultaneously.

Greenock's position on the Clyde estuary means the town experiences high rainfall levels throughout the year, and drainage systems here are put to the test regularly during wet weather. We are experienced in dealing with the specific drainage challenges of the Inverclyde area, including blocked gullies, external drain covers overwhelmed during heavy downpours, and shared drainage runs in older tenement blocks that accumulate grease, scale, and solid debris over time.

We serve all areas of Greenock including Larkfield, Gibshill, and the surrounding Inverclyde communities. Emergency call-outs are available day and night, every day of the year. Call 07454 499567 and we will get to you as quickly as possible.
