Blocked Drains Experts Serving Christchurch
A blocked drain brings slow-draining sinks, gurgling toilets, foul smells, and eventually sewage backup — problems that only get worse the longer they are left. A&B Drainage Solutions provides blocked drain clearance in Christchurch, backed by over 33 years' experience and fully equipped vans on every job. Our line is answered around the clock, and we typically reach Christchurch addresses quickly — day or night.
We clear blockages with high-pressure jetting up to 4,000 PSI, electro-mechanical coring, and rodding, then flow-test the drain before we leave — clearance guaranteed. Christchurch sits in Dorset, where the public sewers are managed by Wessex Water — if a problem turns out to be on the public side, we'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction. Christchurch links our Dorset coverage with the New Forest towns we serve in Hampshire.

Good to Know Locally
Blocked Drains in Christchurch: What to Know
Your drain or the sewer?
If neighbours' drains are backing up too, the blockage is probably in a shared sewer. In Christchurch those belong to Wessex Water, which clears them free of charge. If only your property is affected, it's usually your own drain.
Blocked gully in the road?
Road gullies and surface water on public roads in Christchurch are the responsibility of BCP Council. Report those to them directly.

Who's Responsible for Your Drain in Christchurch?
Your own drain
Pipes that serve only your property and sit inside your boundary are yours to maintain. Many home insurance policies cover accidental damage to them.
Shared drains & public sewers
Since October 2011, drains shared with neighbours or running beyond your boundary are usually public sewers. In Christchurch these belong to Wessex Water, so faults on them can be reported to Wessex Water free of charge.
Road drains & gullies
BCP Council is responsible for road gullies and surface water on public roads in Christchurch.
New drains, soakaways & septic tanks
New drainage work needs Building Regulations approval through BCP Council building control or a registered building control approver. Septic tanks and treatment plants must also meet the Environment Agency's general binding rules.
