Harry Drains in Bishop's Stortford
Bishop's Stortford is in Hertfordshire, but its postcodes begin with CM, which belongs to the Chelmsford postcode area. If you are in CM22 or CM23, you are within our coverage, and 07301 977507 is the number to call. We offer a 24/7 emergency response, seven days a week.
A busy household can put a lot of demand on its drains, and the bathroom and kitchen are usually where the first signs appear: slow draining, a gurgle, a smell. We are an independent specialist with more than ten years' experience, and we would rather you rang at the first sign than waited for a full blockage.

Early signs, and what they mean
These are the symptoms we hear about most often, and the usual explanation behind each.
Slow draining baths, showers and sinks
Usually a partial blockage building up, often hair, soap or food waste. It is the easiest stage to deal with.
Gurgling from plugholes or toilets
Air is being pushed back through the water, which can mean the pipe downstream is restricted.
Smells from drains
A persistent smell can point to a blockage, build-up inside the pipe, or damage. It is worth investigating rather than masking.

How we decide what to do
Not every blocked drain needs the same treatment. If the blockage is simple, clearing it may be all that is needed. If it is stubborn, or the drain has blocked before, jetting can clean the pipe as well as opening it.
If the same drain keeps giving trouble, or if there are signs of damage, a CCTV drain survey shows what is inside. Then we can talk about repairs if they are needed.
We explain which we recommend and why, so you can make the decision. To start, call 07301 977507.
If you are not at home when a problem starts, such as water coming up while you are at work, tell us who can give access and where the affected drain is. A photo from a neighbour, tenant or family member sent to our WhatsApp number saves time. For problems that can wait, say so when you call and we can arrange a time that suits you.
