Need help fast? Find emergency drainage services available now

Expect your drain technician to arrive within 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on location, traffic and availability. Most will:

  • Inspect the blockage (CCTV if needed)
  • Explain what’s causing it
  • Recommend the best fix
  • Clear the blockage using the right method

Look for rated drain clearance services with insurance and, ideally, accreditations like NADC or WIAPS. And don’t be shy about asking for a breakdown of costs upfront to avoid surprises.

Drain clearance in Scottish Borders: Homeowners vs renters

For homeowners:

  • You’re typically responsible for drains inside your property boundary.
  • If the blockage is within your home or garden, it’s on you to sort.
  • For shared pipes or sewers beyond your boundary, your water company might be responsible.

For renters:

  • Flag any issues to your landlord or letting agent immediately.
  • Emergency drain clearance might be covered under your tenancy agreement, but always check.

Don’t arrange work yourself unless you’ve been given the green light, or it’s a genuine emergency and you can’t get hold of your landlord.
