Blocked Drains Selsey: 24/7 Clearance

Selsey is about as low and flat as coastal Sussex gets, sitting at the very end of the Manhood peninsula with the sea on almost every side. That geography is the root of most local drainage trouble: the water table sits close to the surface all year, so ground water clears slowly and any partial blockage backs up faster than it would on higher ground inland.

Who can clear a blocked drain in Selsey?

Drains 4 Brighton clears blocked drains in Selsey at any hour, and the man who answers the phone, Danny Ozoum, is the one who turns up. Sinks, toilets, outside gullies, shared runs: he clears them with a set of rods, a high-pressure jetting hose or a plunger, depending on what is in the pipe. Selsey sits at the tip of the Manhood peninsula with sea on three sides, so the water table stays close to the surface and the flat ground gives waste almost no fall to work with. The soil is sandy, the seafront gullies fill with wind-blown sand, and a partial blockage turns into a backed-up drain quicker than it would inland. There is no call-out fee and no office hours to wait for. Whether it is a bungalow near the beach or a holiday let in town, Danny will come out.

Blocked drains in Selsey: the local picture

Selsey is about as low and flat as coastal Sussex gets, out at the end of the Manhood peninsula with sea on almost every side. That is the root of most of the drainage trouble here: the water table sits close to the surface all year, ground water clears slowly, and a partial blockage backs up much faster than it would on higher ground inland.

The soil is sandy and silty, and down at the seafront the gully pots take a constant feed of wind-blown sand and fine grit. It settles along the bottom of the pipe, narrows the flow, and eventually holds everything up behind it. Jetting shifts that. A plunger will not.

A large share of the housing is bungalows and single-storey retirement and holiday homes, often on older, shallow runs laid across flat, low ground. There is barely any fall to help waste along, so pipes silt up and block more readily than they do on a slope.

Then there is the season. Through the holiday months the extra visitors, wipes and kitchen waste push far more through those drains than they see in winter, and the runs already struggling are the first to go. When yours does, we come out and clear it.

Blocked drain FAQs

How quickly can you reach Selsey?

We run 24/7 and aim to offer same-day help across Selsey and the Witterings. Call 07404 434534 and Danny will give you a realistic arrival time straight away.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. Booking a visit costs nothing, and you are told the clearance price on the phone before any work begins.

My outside gully keeps blocking with sand. Can you help?

Yes, and it is one of the most common calls we get in Selsey. High-pressure water jetting flushes the grit out of the gully pot and the pipe below it so the run drains freely again.

A drain shared with my neighbour is backing up. What should I do?

Call us. Shared runs are common in Selsey's older housing. We clear the blocked length so every property on the run flows again.

Do you work at night and weekends?

Yes, we clear blocked drains 24/7, including evenings and weekends.
