I have every confidence I could fix it and in my last property I did but then when it broke again I discovered from the plumber, that it was usually covered on home insurance. In that particular case, B Gas had used an underground thruster and disturbed my drains and they had to pay.notify insurance? come on, we all know plumbers are failed sparks, so if they can sort it, then im sure you can
A plumber wouldn't do this. They only deal with water going to the toilet. The pipes coming from the toilet would be sewer guys.I have every confidence I could fix it and in my last property I did but then when it broke again I discovered from the plumber, that it was usually covered on home insurance.

Cool, I want one. Thanks
Just bought a 10m wireless version of the same thing......£27
I have only been here 3 months when the toilet is flushed it appears to shift the waste quickly down the waste pipe and there is no sign of any disturbance in the offending gullyWe don't have any surface rainwater drains at all...
Just the soil waste drains into man hole then down drive to road.
The surface rainwater just goes to soak-aways front and rear..
We had a blockage a few years back on our waste pipe.. this was at an underground "U" bend at the bottom of the drive before our pipe joined the main street sewer.
Above this bend was a vertical pipe up to ground level to an access cover at the bottom of the drive.
We got local drain company "Drain Doctor" to come and clear it...
He had a higher pressure semi ridged hose he could push down right to the point of the blockage.
Are you sure you don't have a surface drain that has been connected to the waste water manhole as it was the nearest access?
:C
I phoned them on monday, Drain Advisory Services are coming next weds to assess the job. So 9 days of poo in the back garden before it even gets looked at.we had a blockage a few years ago, turned out to be the handle off a childs plastic wheel barrow had somehow got into the drain, then 'caught' lots of stuff and eventually blocked. Being an old house there was a rodding point at the bottom of our garden with a sort of bottle trap just before it meets the main sewer (which previous owners had covered over - prats!). Called house insurance company, they has a team of guys out, who dug all down the garden by hand, replaced all darin pipes, cleared blockage, replaced bottle trap and made good. Took them 3 days and only cost us the policy excess on the claim. I would phone insurance company.
yes but only on the allotmentSo you won't be growing rhubarb next year?
