What to compareCCTV drain surveys and non-invasive diagnostics

CCTV drain surveys and non-invasive diagnostics

A CCTV drain survey can give a provider a recorded view of the pipe before recommending work.

  • Have access points such as manholes or rodding eyes cleared and reachable before the survey.
  • Many Galway city-centre properties have older drainage runs, so a survey may need to trace beyond one property's boundary.
Structural workBlocked sink and kitchen drain clearing

Blocked sink and kitchen drain clearing

Use this route for common household blockages, including a blocked sink, shower or toilet.

  • Note which fixtures are affected and whether water is draining slowly or not at all.
  • Older Galway properties with cast-iron or clay pipework may need gentler clearing methods than modern plastic systems.
Structural workMain line and tree-root blockage clearing

Main line and tree-root blockage clearing

Use this route where several fixtures back up together or root ingress may be involved.

  • Avoid running more water until professional advice is obtained, and note any nearby trees, hedges or recent landscaping close to the affected run.
  • Responsibility may change at the property boundary, so a provider or Uisce Éireann may need to confirm the relevant section of drain.
Another way we can helpHydro-jetting and mechanical clearing methods

Hydro-jetting and mechanical clearing methods

Providers may use jetting or rodding equipment sized to the pipe diameter and likely blockage type.

  • Let the provider know if the blockage is new or has resisted previous clearing attempts.
  • Commercial kitchens and food-service sites can experience grease-related blockages that need an appropriate drain-cleaning assessment.
Structural workEmergency callout triage for complete blockages

Emergency callout triage for complete blockages

Complete blockages affecting sanitation or multiple fixtures need clear symptom and location details before you get in touch.

  • Stop using the affected fixtures, and describe the urgency and any visible overflow when you make contact.
  • For any suspected public-sewer issue, contact Uisce Éireann rather than assuming a private provider is responsible.
