Blocked Drains Bittern

Older Bittern homes often have copper pipes with joints that deteriorate over decades. Tree roots commonly penetrate these aging connections, particularly in established gardens. The original pipe layouts in these homes may also have gradient issues that weren't apparent when first installed.

Clay soil expands when wet and contracts when dry, putting pressure on underground pipes. This movement can cause pipes to shift, creating low spots where waste accumulates. Clay also drains poorly, which can lead to surface water entering damaged pipe joints and overwhelming the system.
