Do You Have a Blocked Drain in Hackney?

Hackney has one of the highest concentrations of Victorian terraced housing in London, much of it built in the 1870s to 1900s to house East London’s working population. A large proportion of these properties have been converted into flats — and the original drainage systems beneath them were not designed for multiple households. Shared drain runs under rows of converted terraces frequently develop partial blockages from grease build-up, particularly in kitchen drain connections.

The borough’s thriving nightlife and restaurant trade in Dalston and Shoreditch also contributes to grease load in the local sewer network. Stoke Newington’s Victorian streets have older clay drainage where root intrusion from the borough’s many mature street trees is regularly found on CCTV.
