A Friary drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.
Local Salisbury drainage engineers covering Friary. Blocked drains, high-pressure jetting, CCTV surveys and drain repairs, with a clear price agreed before we lift a cover.

The Friary sits close to the city centre in SP1, about three miles from where we're based, so you're rarely waiting long for us to arrive. It's a mixed area, older terraced housing rubbing up against converted commercial buildings and some light industrial units near the ring road. Drainage calls here tend to split between residential blockages in Victorian-era pipes and the occasional trade waste issue from small businesses. The age of the stock means problems come up more often than people expect.
We typically come in along the ring road routes that feed into the city's eastern fringe. The housing around here dates mostly from the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, which means clay pipe runs, shallow cover, and shared sewer connections that haven't changed in over a century. Tree roots are a regular headache, particularly where older street trees sit close to boundary walls. Honestly, shared sewers in this part of Salisbury cause more neighbour disputes than almost anywhere else we cover.

Friary FAQ
That points to a blockage or collapse on the shared sewer section, which in most cases is now Wessex Water's responsibility to fix. We can run a CCTV survey to pinpoint exactly where the problem is and confirm which side of the boundary it falls on, so you've got something concrete to put to the water company rather than just a complaint.
