Cracked Clay Pipes in Victorian Terraces
Blackburn has a large stock of Victorian terraced housing, particularly in areas such as Whalley Range, Audley, and the streets around the town centre. The original clay drainage pipes in these properties are now over 100 years old and frequently suffer from cracking, joint displacement, and root ingress. CCTV survey followed by no-dig pipe relining is the most cost-effective solution.
Industrial Drainage on Whitebirk Industrial Estate
Blackburn's industrial estates, including Whitebirk and Shadsworth, have large volumes of trade effluent passing through drainage systems. Grease, oil, and industrial waste can cause severe blockages. We carry out high-pressure jetting and planned maintenance for commercial and industrial premises across Blackburn.
Drainage Problems on Steep Streets
Blackburn's hilly topography means that surface water drainage can be a significant issue during heavy rainfall. Properties on steeper streets can experience surface water ingress into foul drainage systems, leading to overloaded sewers and internal flooding. We can survey and advise on drainage separation and capacity improvements.
Shared Drains in Older Terraced Streets
Many of Blackburn's older terraced streets have shared drainage runs that serve multiple properties. When a shared drain blocks, it can affect several households simultaneously. We identify the responsible section using CCTV survey and provide written reports to support insurance claims or disputes with United Utilities.

CCTV Survey for Insurance Claim — Whalley Range
A homeowner on Whalley Range experienced repeated internal flooding and needed a CCTV survey for an insurance claim. Our survey identified a collapsed 4-metre section of clay pipe under the rear yard, with a second area of significant root ingress. The full written report and video footage were accepted by the insurer.
Industrial Drain Jetting — Whitebirk Industrial Estate
A manufacturing unit on Whitebirk Industrial Estate had a completely blocked drainage system due to oil and grease accumulation. We carried out a full jetting clean of the 35-metre drain run and installed a grease trap. A quarterly maintenance contract was set up to prevent recurrence.
Emergency Drainage — Preston New Road
A commercial property on Preston New Road had a main drain collapse causing sewage to surface in the car park. We attended within 60 minutes, confirmed the collapse with CCTV, and carried out an emergency excavation and pipe replacement. The site was made safe and fully operational within 8 hours.
