Our Drainage Services
Poole is a historic harbour town whose development stretches back centuries. While its coastal location brought prosperity through trade, fishing, and shipping, it also created a complex and ageing drainage network beneath the town. Today, this long history is one of the main reasons blocked drains in Poole are so common and why a fast, experienced drainage service is essential for homes and businesses.
Poole developed around Poole Harbour, one of the largest natural harbours in the world. Its sheltered waters made it ideal for early settlement long before modern infrastructure existed. Trade, fishing, and shipbuilding shaped the town, with buildings constructed close together along the harbour edge. Streets were added gradually, land was reclaimed from the harbour, and properties were built on top of earlier structures. Drainage systems were installed in stages, often adapting older routes rather than replacing them.
By the 12th century, Poole was an established port town. The Old Town and Quay became densely built commercial areas, with narrow streets and shared yards. Wastewater and surface water were originally directed away from properties through basic channels leading toward the harbour. These early drains were never designed to handle modern levels of water usage.
During the 19th century, Poole expanded inland with the arrival of rail connections and new residential areas. Clay pipe drainage systems were introduced, often connecting into much older pipework. Tree-lined streets later led to widespread root intrusion, and many of these clay and pitch fibre pipes are still in use today, making them prone to cracking, collapse, and blockages.
Poole’s drainage infrastructure now consists of medieval shared drains, Victorian clay systems, post-war concrete and plastic pipework, and modern surface water management systems. These layers frequently connect into one another, meaning faults are often hidden deep within older sections of pipework.
Common causes of blocked drains in Poole include ageing pipework, tree root ingress, fat and grease build-up, collapsed or displaced drains, silt from harbour-side areas, and heavy rainfall overwhelming combined drainage systems. Areas such as Poole Old Town, Parkstone, Hamworthy, Canford Heath, and Sandbanks all experience different drainage behaviours due to their development history.
We provide professional blocked drain services in Poole for residential and commercial customers. Our services include emergency drain call-outs, toilet and sink unblocking, high-pressure water jetting, CCTV drain surveys, root cutting, and drain repairs and replacements. We focus on identifying and resolving the root cause of problems, not just clearing the immediate blockage.
