Our services
Full detail on every page — here’s a quick overview of what we do best.
A blocked drain rarely waits for a convenient moment. JW Drains delivers rapid, professional unblocking for homes and businesses across Essex, Hertfordshire, and Greater London — using high-pressure water jetting, electro-mechanical clearing, and CCTV verification so the problem is actually solved, not just pushed downstream.
View Drain UnblockingFrom kitchen fat build-up to commercial grease traps and outdoor gullies, our drain clearance service removes the obstruction completely. We assess the line, select the right technique, and leave your system flowing as it should — with honest advice on preventing repeat blockages.
View Drain ClearanceRegular drain cleaning protects your property, your tenants, and your reputation. JW Drains provides scheduled cleaning programmes and one-off deep cleans using professional jetting equipment — ideal for restaurants, care homes, landlords, and homeowners who want reliability without surprises.
View Drain CleaningNot every drainage issue is a simple blockage. We repair cracked pipes, displaced joints, root-damaged sections, and collapsed runs using techniques matched to the defect — from localised patch repairs and lining to full excavation where required. You receive a clear explanation, a fair quote, and workmanship built to last.
View Drain RepairsWhether you are purchasing a property, planning an extension, or investigating recurring problems, our CCTV drain surveys provide high-definition footage, accurate defect reporting, and practical recommendations. We survey foul and surface water systems, identify connectivity, and deliver reports suitable for insurers, solicitors, and building control.

JW Drains provides septic tank emptying, servicing, pump repairs, and treatment plant support — helping homeowners and businesses stay compliant, odour-free, and fully operational. We explain your system plainly and recommend only what is genuinely needed.

Google Reviews
Came out within hours of my call and tackled a difficult-to-reach blockage with real expertise. Transparent pricing, immaculate clean-up, and a proper fix — not a quick patch. Exactly the premium service you want when drainage goes wrong.
My 94 year old mum has been ripped off in the past by unscrupulous traders. James was honest, fair, and incredibly respectful throughout. He explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and left everything spotless. We would not use anyone else.
We would highly recommend James! He was able to attend the same day, diagnosed the issue with CCTV, and provided a clear plan before any work began. Professional from first call to final invoice — the standard every drainage company should meet.
