Drain Maintenance – Root infestation

August 29th, 2019

#Root infestation and subsequent blocked #drains are a common problem on #drains near to planted areas. #Roots infiltrate drains either through #defective pipe joints or cracks, #fractures and #holes in the pipework. If the pipework is not badly damaged, #roots can often be removed using specialist root cutting equipment or high pressure jetting using a specialist root cutting jet head.

If the root infestation is extensive and damage to the pipework is great, the appropriate solution to this would be to line the drain or carry out an excavation and install new pipework. Here at #John Wall Drainage Service our operators can advise on the correct action needed.

Gutter Cleaning

July 8th, 2019

Let’s be honest – the topic of #gutter cleaning is far from being a fascinating subject. Most people would not even think about looking after their gutter system until they stop working properly.

The truth is, #gutters on your home or business serve a critical service.

Clogged gutters are the number one cause of basement water problems in your home or business.  #Roof water overflows and accumulates around the foundation.  If this happens, basement leaks may be moments away and excess water against the foundation can weaken the footings and lead to cracks, something you NEVER want to happen.
