Our team attended a knightfrank property in Bristol to investigate water overflowing from a hopper at fifth-floor level.
We identified a blockage within the external drainage pipework in the central section of the building. Both Picote mechanical cleaning and high-pressure water jetting were attempted, but we were unable to clear the obstruction from the available access points.
Access is the main challenge. The narrow entrance prevents a suitable cherry picker from reaching the affected pipework, so we will return once scaffolding is in place.
This will allow us to inspect the affected section directly, establish what is causing the obstruction and carry out further clearance work. Any pipework defects or additional repairs required will be reported to the client.
Thanks to Taylor Bond for putting their trust in SW Drainage & Jet Solutions Ltd. We’ll provide a further update following our return visit.
