Blocked Drain Repairs
Our 24/7 blocked drain service utilises high-pressure jetting and CCTV diagnostics to resolve obstructions in domestic and commercial drainage systems. Engineers attend emergencies within hours, clearing blockages in toilets, sinks, and main sewer lines using industry-leading equipment. With over 25 years' experience, we guarantee complete drain restoration and flood risk reduction across Dorset.
CCTV Drain Surveys
Advanced CCTV camera systems allow precise identification of drain issues without excavation. Our surveys detect cracks, root ingress, and blockages in pipes beneath properties. Digital reports with fault locations enable targeted repairs, saving time and costs. Available for residential, commercial, and municipal drainage systems across southern England.
Septic Tank Services
We provide septic tank emptying, inspections, and repairs for properties not connected to mains drainage. Regular de-sludging prevents system failures and environmental contamination. Our engineers service tanks in rural homes and businesses, offering maintenance contracts to ensure compliance with environmental regulations across Dorset and Hampshire.
Flood Prevention
Comprehensive flood risk assessments identify drainage vulnerabilities in residential and commercial properties. We implement soakaway systems, gully cleaning, and drainage upgrades to mitigate surface water flooding. Emergency response teams deploy high-volume pumps to remove floodwater and prevent property damage during extreme weather events.
Drain Installation
Our drainage engineers design and install new drainage systems for property extensions, new builds, and commercial developments. Using durable uPVC pipework and modern techniques, we create compliant drainage solutions that meet building regulations. Services include connection to mains sewers and sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) for new construction projects.

Report
The guy and eventually guys attended today. Absolutely fantastic. The first in attendance went over and above, staying on way after hours, with the on call guy to sort out the issues. They even sanitised my bathroom floor so I could manage during the night. I would really recommend these guys. Thanks Teresa xx

Absolutely BRILLIANT! From first contact with 'Mark number 1' who was very cool, friendly and helpful, who took the booking on the Bank Holiday Weekend, to 'Mark H' who attended, who was also very friendly and helpful and hard working and thorough, explaining whilst working. Also pointed out little health and safety type matters such as when best idea to stand back, ha ha (good idea that one)! Mark H had a 'way' with neighbours (can be an issue at times) so all amicable and enabled him to get on with the job, after tracing to said neighbour's property, without (somewhat expected, normally) issues.
Mark H also has the neatest handwriting seen in a long time lol! 'Teresa' at the office is absolutely lovely. Really, really pleased and can't recommend highly enough! Thank you so, so much! Brilliant company!

Gerry came to our rescue this morning, we've had bubbling toilets & sinks for a couple of weeks and despite my best attemps with bleach & boiling water the problem kept returning. Thanks to Gerry everything is draining away beautifully. Thanks for the quick & friendly service, we will recommend Canford Drains to all in need!
