Drainage problems can escalate quickly. Slow-draining sinks, toilets that struggle to flush, unpleasant odours from outside drains, or wastewater backing up through several fixtures may all indicate a blockage. Overflowing gullies, sewage around inspection chambers, and recurring issues after previous clearance can point to a more serious obstruction or underlying pipe defect.
ASAP Drainage assists homeowners, landlords, tenants, managing agents, and businesses throughout Teddington. Engineers attend houses, flats, riverside homes, shops, cafés, pubs, offices, schools, and managed developments.
How attendance is arranged: Teddington is within ASAP Drainage’s priority South West London service area. Estimated arrival times are provided when booking, although traffic, roadworks, and local conditions may affect journeys. All engineers are directly employed by ASAP Drainage.
ASAP Drainage resolves blockages, recurring drainage issues, CCTV inspections and underground pipe defects. Appointment recommendations are based on the symptoms, access details, and property information provided.
Fixed quote on the phone
Engineers clear blocked drains, waste pipes, gullies, manholes, and underground runs. Multiple affected fixtures may indicate a deeper obstruction requiring further investigation.
Fixed quote on the phone
We unblock toilets in homes, flats, schools, offices, hospitality venues and commercial premises. Overflowing, slow-flushing or backing-up toilets should be addressed promptly.
Quoted after survey
Repairs are available for cracked pipes, root ingress, collapsed sections, displaced joints, defective gullies, damaged manholes and other structural drainage defects.
Quoted after survey
Drain lining installs a resin liner inside suitable damaged pipework, creating a new internal surface without excavating the entire drainage run. Severely collapsed or deformed drains may still require excavation.
From £149 +VAT
Standard CCTV surveys start from £149 plus VAT and include footage, photographs, a digital report, a drain schematic, MSCC5 coding, and recommendations.
Explain what is happening when you call. The team can advise whether the initial visit should focus on clearing a blockage, inspecting the drain with a camera, tracing the pipe route or assessing suspected damage.

ASAP Drainage does not publish one standard price for every blockage because the work varies between properties. Before booking, the team asks about the affected fixtures, property type, symptoms, and available access. A fixed quotation is confirmed before the engineer travels, with no separate call-out fee.
What moves the price: The price may depend on whether the obstruction is internal or external, how far it sits from a manhole or rodding point, and whether several fixtures are affected. Grease, hardened scale, roots, and solid debris may require jetting or mechanical cutting.
CCTV surveys are priced independently from clearance work. If the inspection identifies structural damage, the engineer should explain the findings and provide supporting evidence. Drain repairs or lining only proceed after the customer approves a separate written quotation.

ASAP Drainage serves homes, businesses and managed properties across TW11, covering varied drainage systems throughout Teddington.
Older buildings, flats and businesses often share drainage. Grease, heavy usage and restricted access can cause problems.
Commercial units, apartments and homes may require drain unblocking, toilet clearance, CCTV surveys and communal investigations.
Riverside properties may have shared drainage, basement outlets and access restrictions requiring CCTV investigation.
Family homes with mature gardens may experience root ingress. CCTV confirms defects before repairs are recommended.
Extensions and alterations can obscure drainage routes. Surveys and tracing help identify pipe locations before building work.

An overflowing toilet in a High Street flat or a restaurant drain backing up during service can require immediate attention. Sewage entering a ground-floor room, a school toilet failure or a communal blockage affecting several apartments can be equally urgent. Emergency calls are attended by ASAP Drainage’s own engineers. Call for the current arrival estimate and confirmed quotation.
A property owner is generally responsible for internal waste pipes, gullies within the boundary, and private drains serving only that address. This commonly includes the pipework running from the building until it connects with a shared sewer or public lateral drain.
Responsibility may be less straightforward in converted homes, apartments, mixed-use buildings, flats above shops, and managed developments. Communal drainage within the property may fall to a landlord, freeholder, management company, or managing agent rather than one occupier.
Thames Water normally maintains public sewers, public lateral drains, and adopted shared sections. Once a drainage run carries waste from more than one property, the shared section may fall within the public network, including qualifying pipes that cross private land.
An ASAP Drainage engineer can investigate where the obstruction appears to sit, whether one or several properties are affected, and whether the drain is private or shared.
Our approach: when the available evidence identifies a blockage within Thames Water’s network, the customer will be advised to report it rather than approve private drainage work that may not be their responsibility.
Tenants and leaseholders: notify your landlord, freeholder, or managing agent when communal drainage may be involved. Responsibility depends on the affected pipe, the property arrangement, and the cause of the blockage.
Tell the team which fixture or drain is affected, when the symptoms began and whether sewage is overflowing. Mention if several outlets are blocked, along with the property type, floor level, access arrangements, parking restrictions and details of any landlord or managing agent. The likely service, quotation and estimated arrival window are then confirmed.
A directly employed engineer attends with equipment for common clearance and inspection work. The estimated arrival time reflects current traffic, workload, access conditions and the position of the available engineer.
Drain rods, high-pressure water jetting, flex-shaft tools, mechanical cutters, CCTV cameras or sonde tracing equipment may be used. The engineer selects the method according to the obstruction, pipe condition and available access.
If damage is discovered, the customer receives an explanation and supporting evidence. Any repair or lining work is quoted separately. Qualifying completed work carries the applicable 28-day workmanship guarantee.

Had a big blockage issue that previous plumber couldn’t fix. Chase and Billy do an excellent job, fixed the issue and cleaned up at the end. Really grateful to them both.

Really efficient, friendly and timely service provided. Had a few bad experiences in the past with other services, this was a breath of fresh air! Highly recommend.
— Stuart A, Google review
Excellent job uninstalling one radiator and fitting a new one with underfloor pipes. Work was undertaken quickly by a knowledgeable worker. No fuss and a good price.

The quotation depends on the obstruction’s position, available access, and the equipment required. ASAP Drainage confirms a fixed price before attendance, with no separate call-out fee. CCTV surveys, repairs, and specialist reporting are priced independently and require customer approval.
Teddington is a priority South-West London location. You receive an estimated arrival time when booking, based on the available engineer’s position, traffic and current workload. Roadworks, level crossings, and local events can affect the journey, so the stated window is an estimate rather than a guarantee.
Yes. Emergency drain unblocking is available 24 hours a day, including overnight, weekends, and bank holidays. Call with your TW11 postcode, property type and a description of the symptoms so the team can confirm the current attendance estimate and fixed quotation.
Coverage includes Teddington High Street, Broad Street, Teddington Lock, Bushy Park, Fulwell, Park Road, Queens Road, and the surrounding TW11 streets. Addresses near Hampton Hill, Strawberry Hill, or Hampton Wick may use TW12, TW2, or KT1 and should be checked individually.
Thames Water normally maintains public sewers, public lateral drains and adopted shared sections. A private drain within the boundary that serves only one property generally remains the owner’s responsibility. Managed buildings may also involve a freeholder, landlord or managing agent.
Yes. A homebuyer CCTV survey can record the accessible pipe condition, drainage layout, and visible defects. It may be useful for period houses, converted properties, extended homes, and buildings with established gardens. Reports can include footage, a schematic, coding, and repair recommendations.
Roots can enter a drain through a crack, displaced joint or another existing defect. Mature trees nearby do not prove that root ingress has occurred. CCTV inspection is needed to identify whether roots are present and assess the condition of the pipe around them.
Repeated blockages can result from grease, wipes, scale, roots, displaced joints, poor gradients, pipe deformation or a communal drainage fault. Another routine clearance may restore flow temporarily without identifying the cause. A CCTV investigation can reveal defects or deposits deeper within the run.
