Drain Unblocking Cost

Drain unblocking costs in the UK depend on the severity of the blockage, the method required to clear it, and whether it's a routine or emergency callout. Here's a realistic guide to what professional drain unblocking typically costs.

What to Look For

• Simple rodding (accessible blockage): £80–£150
• High-pressure jetting: £150–£300
• Emergency callout (out of hours): £200–£400
• Stubborn blockage requiring mechanical cutting: £250–£500
• CCTV survey to diagnose cause: £150–£300 (often included)
• Recurring blockage investigation and repair: £500–£2,000+

How We Diagnose the Problem

We always investigate the cause of a blockage, not just clear it. A CCTV survey after unblocking reveals whether there's an underlying structural problem causing recurring issues — this prevents you paying for repeated clearances.

How We Fix It

We provide transparent pricing with no hidden charges. Emergency and out-of-hours callouts cost more, but we never charge a separate call-out fee when repair work is carried out. All unblocking includes a CCTV check and report.
