What this covers

Improving access for future clearing and CCTV where chambers are buried, broken or missing.

Do this first

  • Keep clear of sewage and electrics near standing water.
  • Avoid pouring more water into a blocked fitting.
  • Note whether upstairs and downstairs drains are affected and photograph any overflow if safe.
