Blocked Drains Rye: 24/7 Emergency Clearance

Rye has an unusual setting and it shows up the moment a drain blocks. Up on the medieval hilltop, cobbled streets like Mermaid Street are steep and narrow, so getting a van close and reaching a rear gully takes as much working out as the clearance does.

Ringing the town is the low tidal marshland of Romney and Walland Marsh, fed by the Rother, the Brede and the Tillingham. The water table stays high and the tide has its say, so the low-lying drains sit sluggish and silt up far more readily than anything on higher ground.

The old timber-framed and listed properties through the town centre are mostly on ageing shared runs, which is why one blockage can put water up in more than one house. Then there is the visitor season, when kitchens, guesthouses and public gullies all take heavier use than they were built for. Danny works with those conditions rather than fighting them, picking rods, jetting or a plunger to suit whatever is causing the problem.

• Blocked kitchen and bathroom sinks
• Blocked toilets
• Outside gullies and yard drains
• Shared drains between period and terraced properties
• Drains packed with silt, grease or debris from low-lying runs

Rods, high-pressure water jetting or a plunger. Danny brings the lot and uses whichever the run will take.

You get the price on the phone, before Danny sets off. Tell him what the drain is doing and he quotes a fixed price for the clearance. There is no call-out fee and nothing gets added on afterwards.

Danny does every Rye job himself, from the first call to the cleared drain. Customer reviews and photos of recent local work will go here as they are supplied.
