Sewer plumbing in Bayswater

We had one of our customers report a blocked sewer pipe, which was located in the back of their commercial property in Bayswater. Overflowing sewer water had created a messy situation!

A detailed assessment of the area and drainage system found the sewer overflowing was occurring through the IS shaft.

We deployed the sewer machine with a 3″ cutter, with 2 lengths laid out to the ORG connection point. This cleared the drain partially, so a larger 4″ set of cutters needed to be used to ensure the blockage was fully cleared.

Cables were run from upstream to downstream to ensure the sewer connection was clear of any obstruction. As a final step, a water and paper test was performed. Everything was back to working as it should.

A tricky job, but successfully tackled by our licensed plumbing team!

    Came same day as I called to fix broken tap that couldn’t be turned off (had to turn water off at mains to stop flooding). Third time I’ve used them within 12 months for different issues. Very helpful, professional staff and reasonable pricing. Highly recommended.

    I am very impressed with the service. My problem was attended to efficiently. The plumber who came, George, was attentive to my needs and polite in his way of relating. He completed the repair work and my leaking problem was solved. I will definitely call Doherty Plumbing again for any plumbing problems.
