Before ➡️ After – Buchan Trap Removal ✅

If your drains are constantly blocking, a Buchan trap could be the reason.

Buchan traps were commonly installed on older properties to prevent foul smells from the public sewer entering the property. While they served a purpose many years ago, modern drainage systems no longer require them, and over time they often become a common cause of recurring drainage problems.

As these traps age, they can restrict the flow of waste and collect wipes, paper, grease and other debris, leading to repeated blockages. In many cases, customers find themselves having the drains unblocked time and time again without solving the underlying issue.

The best long-term solution is often to remove the Buchan trap and install a new straight-through section of pipe. This improves the flow through the drainage system, reduces the risk of future blockages, and makes CCTV surveys and maintenance much easier.

If your drains are always blocking, don't keep paying for repeated unblocking visits. It could be a sign that a repair or alteration is needed to permanently fix the problem.

☀️ Even in this hot weather, we’re still getting the job done! ☀️

Another successful job completed with multiple drain lines relined, root cutting carried out, and a brand new gully installed for our customer.

Drain relining is a great no-dig repair solution, allowing damaged drains to be repaired without the need for major excavation. That means less disruption, faster repairs, and often lower overall costs.

If you’re experiencing drainage issues or need repairs, get in touch with GSB Drainage. We’re here to help with everything from CCTV surveys and drain unblocking to drain relining and excavations.

🌳 Roots causing drainage issues? Here's why a CCTV survey is so important...

These photos show a drain heavily affected by root ingress. After carrying out specialist root cutting, we were able to clear the blockage and reveal a hidden Buchan trap that had been causing further issues within the line.

✅ Roots removed
✅ Drain reopened
✅ Problem identified

Next steps will be manual excavation and drain relining to provide a long term solution and help prevent future root intrusion.

🏡 Buying a House? Don’t Forget the Drains.

A property can look perfect on the surface, but hidden problems underground can cost thousands to fix later.

Many drainage issues aren’t visible during a standard house survey. Problems like cracks, root ingress, collapsed pipes, or pitch fibre deterioration can sit unnoticed for years until they suddenly become your responsibility.

🚨 That’s where a Home Buyer Drain Survey comes in.

At GSB Drainage, we carry out professional CCTV drain surveys before you complete your purchase, giving you a clear picture of the condition of the drainage system.

Our Home Buyer Drain Survey can help you:

✔ Identify hidden drain damage or blockages
✔ Avoid unexpected repair costs after moving in
✔ Use findings to negotiate the purchase price if issues are found
✔ Buy your new home with confidence
Whether the property is old or relatively new,

drains can fail without any obvious warning signs, and once you own the house, the repairs become your responsibility.

📍 Local, reliable service
📹 Detailed CCTV reports and footage
🕒 Fast turnaround to keep your purchase on track

Protect your investment before you sign the contracts.

🚿 Blocked Sink Cleared – Problem Solved!

We were recently called out to a customer with a blocked kitchen sink that just wouldn’t drain properly.

After lifting the manhole and carrying out a CCTV drain inspection, we identified a large fat, oil and grease (FOG) build-up causing the blockage. Using high pressure water jetting, we safely cleared the obstruction and restored the flow.

✅ Manhole lifted and system checked
✅ CCTV inspection completed
✅ Heavy fat build-up removed by jetting
✅ Sink fully tested and now flowing perfectly

If you’re experiencing slow draining sinks, bad smells, or recurring blockages, don’t leave it — get it checked before it turns into a bigger problem.
