About AJS Drainage.
Practical drainage solutions across Essex — from clearing blocked drains to CCTV investigation and repairing the underlying problem when required.
Drainage problems.
Proper solutions.
AJS Drainage provides drainage services for customers across Essex, helping with everything from blocked and slow-running drains to recurring drainage problems that need further investigation.
Our approach is straightforward: deal with the immediate problem first, then investigate further where the symptoms suggest there may be an underlying cause.
That means a customer can start with the service they need today while having access to CCTV investigation and drain repair options if the problem requires more than simple unblocking.
Talk To AJS
Start with the
actual problem.
Not every blocked drain needs a survey and not every drainage problem needs a repair. The right starting point depends on what is happening.
Listen
Start with the symptoms and understand what the drainage system is doing.
Clear
Where there is a blockage or restriction, restore the flow using an appropriate method.
Investigate
If the problem keeps returning, CCTV can help inspect accessible internal drain condition.
Repair
Where investigation identifies a defect, suitable repair options can then be considered.
Find the cause.
Not just the symptom.
Clearing a blocked drain is often exactly what is needed. Once the obstruction has been removed and the drain continues to perform normally, there may be no reason to do more.
But when the same drain repeatedly blocks, remains slow or shows other signs of a deeper problem, simply clearing it again may not tell the whole story.
That is where investigation becomes useful. CCTV can help provide a visual picture of accessible internal conditions before repair decisions are made.
Repeated blockages can have several causes. If a drain continues to block after being cleared, CCTV investigation can help identify visible restrictions, damage or other conditions within the accessible pipework.

Clear. Investigate.
Repair.
Restore The Flow
Blocked or restricted drainage can often be addressed through professional unblocking, cleaning or water jetting.
Understand Why
If symptoms return, CCTV inspection can help provide evidence about visible conditions within accessible sections of the drainage system.
Fix What's Needed
Where a defect is identified, an appropriate repair method can be considered based on the condition, access and circumstances.

See what's
happening.
Drainage problems happen underground, which means the cause is not always obvious from the symptoms above ground.
CCTV drain inspection can help examine accessible pipework and provide visual information about the condition of the drainage system.
This helps move the conversation from assumptions to evidence when a recurring problem needs further investigation.
