FAQs — Water Jetting in Ashton-in-Makerfield

Will jetting damage my drains?

No, when used correctly. Our engineers match the nozzle and pressure to the pipe material — clay, cast iron, pitch fibre, plastic — so the pipe wall isn't touched. We won't jet a pipe we suspect is collapsed without a camera first.

Do you do storm drain and gully cleaning?

Yes — including gullies, channel drains, ACO drains and surface water systems. Particularly useful before winter to stop blockages becoming flooding.

Do you actually cover Ashton-in-Makerfield?

Yes — Ashton-in-Makerfield is part of our core coverage, including WN4 and surrounding areas like Wigan, Haydock, Bryn. On the WN4 / WA11 boundary — jobs often combine well with Haydock visits.
