Drainage Livingston: Unblocking, Surveys and Repairs

Livingston is the closest town to our base at Letham Gardens in Pumpherston, which makes it the fastest response we offer anywhere. A call from Craigshill, Ladywell, Deans, Knightsridge, Dedridge, Murieston or Eliburn is a few minutes away rather than a trip out from Edinburgh or Glasgow.
As a planned new town, Livingston has drainage laid out in phases from the 1960s onwards, and each phase behaves differently. The earliest estates have clay and early concrete pipework now well past sixty years old, with settlement, root ingress and open joints. The 1980s and 1990s expansion is generally sound plastic. The newest developments at Eliburn and Murieston are modern systems where problems are almost always wipes, fat or debris rather than the pipe.
The town also carries a lot of commercial drainage. The Centre and Almondvale, the retail parks, Houstoun Industrial Estate, Deer Park and Kirkton Campus all generate the kind of work that has to be dealt with without closing a premises, so we plan around trading hours and work out of hours where it helps.
What we do in Livingston
- 24/7 emergency drain unblocking for homes and businesses
- High-pressure jetting of fat, silt and root ingress
- CCTV surveys, including pre purchase homebuyer surveys
- No-dig patch lining and full relining
- Excavation and replacement where a run has collapsed
- Planned maintenance for retail, industrial and hospitality sites
Shared runs on the estates
A lot of Livingston housing drains through shared runs and communal chambers rather than individual connections. That is why one household clearing its own waste pipe often achieves nothing. We look at the whole run, clear it properly and show you on camera where the restriction actually was, which is also what you need if the cost has to be split.
Commercial and industrial work
Kitchens, wash bays, forecourts and industrial yards silt and grease up on a predictable cycle. Planned jetting every few months is cheaper than an emergency closure, and we will set a schedule that fits how the site actually operates.
