Before you buy your home, check for blocked drains.

When you’re buying a property in Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford and Huddersfield, whether it’s your first home or not, you do not want to be caught out by unmaintained blocked drains! Metro Rod West Yorkshire suggests a CCTV Survey.

Blocked drains cracked pipes or root overgrowth is not something you will notice when viewing a house but a CCTV Survey can show you. A blocked drain doesn’t always cause like a flood or leak which is noticeable. Whether the property is in Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford and Huddersfield we can provide you with a CCTV survey that can locate what is causing the blocked drains and where exactly the blockage is.

 

Who is responsible for your blocked drains?

 

Drain Responsibility 1200x729

 

Typically, blocked drains that are within your property boundary are the homeowner’s responsibility, including drains that take wastewater directly away from your home. If the blocked drains are located within this boundary, give Metro Rod West Yorkshire a call.

You are responsible for all drain maintenance of drains connected to your home. Whether it is drain repair or to unblock drains, it’s up to you to arrange a fix unless the blocked drain is a lateral drain*

*The lateral drain is part of your private drain that runs outside of your boundary.

A CCTV Survey could find where the blocked drains lie: in your property boundary, neighbours or the sewer system. Sewers are publicly owned and therefore maintained by your local water company – if you’re in Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford and Huddersfield this would mean Yorkshire Water.

If the CCTV Survey finds that your blocked drains are in fact blockages in the sewer system, then this blockage is not your responsibility.
