Blocked Drains Experts Serving Crawley
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 Crawley, backed by over 33 years' experience and fully equipped vans on every job. Our line is answered around the clock, and we typically reach Crawley 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. Crawley sits in West Sussex, where the public sewers are managed by Southern Water — if a problem turns out to be on the public side, we'll tell you honestly and point you in the right direction. Crawley is mainly commercial and industrial territory for us, with capacity for larger contracts.

Who's Responsible for Your Drain in Crawley?
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 Crawley these belong to Southern Water, so faults on them can be reported to Southern Water free of charge.
Road drains & gullies
West Sussex County Council is responsible for road gullies and surface water on public roads in Crawley.
New drains, soakaways & septic tanks
New drainage work needs Building Regulations approval through Crawley Borough Council building control or a registered building control approver. Septic tanks and treatment plants must also meet the Environment Agency's general binding rules.
