Drains in Kingston upon Thames: what our engineers see

Kingston grew outwards from its old market town. Close to the centre and in Surbiton you will find Victorian villas and terraces, and the further south and east you go, through Tolworth, Berrylands, Old Malden and Chessington, the more the streets are filled with interwar and post-war semi-detached houses. Older clay drains suffer from cracked joints, while some mid-twentieth-century homes were laid with pitch-fibre pipes that can deform or blister with age, narrowing the bore until waste catches.

Being a riverside borough, Kingston has a long Thames frontage, and the Hogsmill River flows through Berrylands and Old Malden before joining the Thames in the town centre. Properties close to either river can find their drains slower to empty during long spells of heavy rain, and owners of riverside flats with lower-level outlets may want to ask about non-return valves.

Gardens are large across much of the borough, and with Richmond Park, Coombe and plenty of mature street trees nearby, roots are a frequent cause of partial blockages in outer suburbs. Kingston town centre and the restaurant strips of Surbiton and New Malden bring a different risk: grease from busy kitchens. Whichever applies, jetting clears the pipe and a CCTV survey confirms whether there is damage behind the blockage.

Kingston upon Thames drainage FAQs

Do you cover Chessington, Tolworth and Surbiton?

Yes, we cover the whole of Kingston upon Thames, including Chessington, Hook, Tolworth, Surbiton, Berrylands, New Malden, Old Malden, Norbiton, Coombe and Kingston Vale. We only work inside Greater London, so if your address is just over the Surrey border, call us on 0800 470 0946 to check before booking.

What are pitch-fibre drains and could my house have them?

Pitch-fibre pipes were made from wood fibre bonded with pitch and were used in some homes built from around the 1950s to the 1970s. With age they can soften, deform or blister, which reduces the space for waste to pass. A CCTV survey will confirm what your pipes are made of and whether they have deformed.

My outside drain overflows when it rains heavily. Is that a blockage?

It can be, but not always. If a gully or chamber overflows only in heavy rain, the drain may be partly blocked with silt, leaves or roots, or the sewer downstream may be overloaded. We jet the drain to clear any debris and check it on camera. If the pipe is clear, the problem may lie with the public sewer.

Do you clean drains for businesses in Kingston town centre?

Yes. We work with restaurants, cafes, shops and offices across the town centre and the local high streets. We can unblock drains in an emergency or arrange regular jetting to keep fat, oil and grease from building up. Online booking lets you choose a day and time window, and urgent jobs can be phoned through at any hour.
