Blocked drain

Hi Does anyone have a recommendation for someone who can unblock drains? In the past it has been roots that has been the problem but I can't find the people who came before. Not really urgent so want to try and avoid call out fee if I can. Thanks

Who is responsible for the drains?

This one is within my property so think down to me as no one else uses it. The shared drains running through ours and outside are Thames water, they have unblocked shared ones in the past. Might be worth a call to them though.

Thames water are coming but not sure it is one of theirs, they will advise so might not need a name as yet. Thanks for your reminding me Ewoowar!

Very Impressed with speed of Thames Waters response they have been. They assesed and did jet a little which helped a bit but it is not part of their responsibility. So still looking for a number as they think there is a blockage in the pipe and I think it's roots again.

If you ring Thames Water again they have a list of approved contractors.
