Assess whether jetting suits the restriction
Pressurised water delivered through a hose and nozzle can loosen and move suitable deposits or obstructions. Pipe condition and working access determine whether this method is appropriate. Tell SouthFlow which outlets are affected and whether wastewater is overflowing.

Provide useful background before work
Share previous survey findings or known damage, along with earlier clearance attempts. Describe available drainage points, locked gates and shared working areas. If preparation or inspection is needed, clarify whether it is included in the clearance proposal.
Distinguish restored flow from structural repair
Jetting does not repair cracks or collapse. A returning problem may require investigation of visible condition and a suitable repair assessment. Ask which checks and attendance charges are included and how additional work beyond the agreed scope would be authorised.
Your Basingstoke service questions
What does high-pressure drain jetting do?
It uses a hose and nozzle to direct pressurised water at suitable deposits and blockages inside a drain. This can help remove built-up waste and restore flow. The approach depends on the pipe’s condition and the obstruction.
Is drain jetting the same as jet vacuumation?
No. Jetting uses pressurised water to loosen and move deposits. Jet vacuumation combines water jetting with vacuum extraction to remove material such as silt or sludge. Tell us what needs clearing so the appropriate service can be discussed.
Can jetting guarantee the drain will stay clear?
No. Clearance does not prevent new waste from accumulating or resolve underlying pipe damage. If the drain repeatedly blocks, a CCTV inspection may help identify a defect or another reason the problem keeps returning.
Is jetting suitable for every drain?
No. The pipe’s condition, available access and type of obstruction matter. Share any known damage or previous survey findings before work begins so the clearance method can be assessed.
Will jetting repair a cracked or collapsed pipe?
No. Jetting clears suitable obstructions; it does not repair the pipe itself. Damaged sections need separate assessment to determine whether relining, excavation or another repair is appropriate.
Is a CCTV inspection included with jetting?
Only if it is included in the agreed work. Ask whether the quote covers a camera inspection and any footage or written findings you need.
How much does the work cost?
We quote for the work your property needs. The price depends on the problem, access, preparation and attendance arrangements. When requesting a quote, ask what is included and whether VAT or additional investigation charges apply.
