A client in Milton Keynes, for example, might be experiencing repeated instances of blocked drains. Continually having them temporarily unblocked might be proving tedious and expensive, so they call in a team like Northants Waste Control to get to the bottom of it. During the course of the CCTV drain survey, we find a narrow area of pipe that has accumulated a build-up of pollutants, making it easily blocked. We can then recommend high pressure jetting to clear out the drains.
