Do You Have a Blocked Drain in Islington?

Islington contains some of the oldest residential housing in London. The Georgian terraces and Victorian townhouses of N1, Canonbury, and Barnsbury sit above drainage infrastructure that in many cases was laid in the 1840s to 1870s — original brick or clay systems that are approaching 180 years old in some streets. This drainage requires care and experience to work with properly.

The borough has a very high proportion of converted flats, and Angel and Upper Street’s density of restaurants and bars contributes significant grease to the local sewer network. Blockages in these areas tend to be recurrent unless properly jettted and the pipe condition investigated. For properties that keep blocking, a CCTV survey is the only reliable way to determine whether there’s underlying structural damage.
