Drainage Services in Richmond

Cooper & Sons Drainage covers Richmond as part of our regular Surrey and SW London patch. As a family-run business, part of the same family behind Cooper & Sons Roofing, we focus on six core services: 24/7 emergency drain unblocking, high-pressure jetting, CCTV surveys, sewer cleaning, root removal and manhole unblocking, whether you’re on the riverside or further from the water near Sheen.

24/7 Emergency Drain Unblocking in Richmond

A blocked toilet, sink, bath or shower doesn’t wait for office hours, and our emergency line runs genuinely around the clock. We clear the vast majority of blockages on the first visit, from Richmond Hill’s Victorian villas to the riverside properties near Petersham.

High-Pressure Drain Jetting in Richmond

Where rodding alone won’t shift a blockage, high-pressure water jetting clears grease, scale and root ingress from the full length of the drain run without disturbing period gardens or driveways. It’s the fix we reach for most often in Richmond, where older clay drainage under East Sheen and Richmond Hill is now well past its intended service life.

CCTV Drain Surveys in Richmond

A CCTV survey puts a camera down the line so we can see exactly what’s causing a problem before any work is agreed, particularly useful given the age of drainage near Richmond Park and the mature tree roots that often intrude into it.

Sewer Cleaning in Richmond

Routine and reactive sewer clearance keeps a property’s main connection running freely, common in Richmond’s converted villas and flats near the town centre, where several units often share a single drain run. We clear the blockage and confirm the line’s flowing properly afterwards.

Root Removal in Richmond

Mature trees bordering Richmond Park and lining Richmond Hill are one of the most frequent causes of root ingress we deal with in this postcode. We clear root growth mechanically or with jetting depending on severity, and advise honestly on whether ongoing management or relining a section of pipe is the better long-term answer.

Manhole Unblocking in Richmond

A surcharging manhole or inspection chamber is often the first visible sign of a blockage further down the line rather than the problem itself, and this is common near the riverside after heavy rain. We clear it quickly to stop the immediate overflow, then trace the actual cause.

Commercial Drain Maintenance in Richmond

We also maintain drainage for businesses around Richmond town centre and along George Street, with scheduled jetting and CCTV checks arranged around trading hours.
