Blocksaway was called out to a house being sold in Eye near Peterborough by the local estate agent on behalf of the purchaser to complete a CCTV survey of the drains.

The survey revealed a very heavy buildup of scale in the foul drain that lead under the sun lounge. The purchaser insisted this be removed before he would agree to buy the house.

Steve high pressure water jetted the run at 4000psi but only managed to remove some of the scale which was like concrete and up to 2″ thick. Undeterred and by using special acid behind the remaining scale overnight on 2 separate occasions, Steve totally cleaned the drain and brought it back to full bore. The alternative would have been a lost sale or an excavation costing thousands of pounds.
