How we do the work in Bonnyrigg

Bonnyrigg drainage, in plain terms
Bonnyrigg's large new-build developments sit next to much older stock, so we see both settled modern laterals and failing clay drains within the same street.
Estates completed in the last decade still throw up construction debris in laterals — grout, plaster and offcuts rather than genuine wear. Two properties on the same street can still need completely different approaches.
Most drainage services work in Bonnyrigg involves large new-build developments and older stone cottages, and each brings its own typical faults. The pipe material tells you as much about the likely fault as the symptom does.
We hold maintenance arrangements with premises near Bonnyrigg town centre, and take one-off domestic calls from new-build owners on the same day. That keeps the price for Bonnyrigg the same as anywhere else on our patch.
Parking near the property is the only real constraint here — the run in from the A720 takes no time. That keeps the price for Bonnyrigg the same as anywhere else on our patch.

Everything drainage, handled in-house. Whether it is a blocked gully at midnight or a planned lining job on a commercial site, the same team sees it through from diagnosis to repair.

Bonnyrigg drainage FAQs
Is a CCTV survey worth it before buying in Bonnyrigg?
Where the property is older or has mature trees close to the boundary, yes. Households out most of the day only notice a slow drain at night, which is when a lot of these call-outs come in. A survey costs a fraction of an unexpected excavation. We are happy to talk it through on the phone first.
What causes most blockages around Midlothian?
Fat and wipes in domestic property, grease in food premises, roots and displaced joints in the older runs. We tell you which of those it was, not just that the drain is running again. There is no charge for the advice either way.
Do you need access inside the property?
Usually not — most Bonnyrigg work is done from an external chamber or gully. If internal access is needed we will say so on the phone so someone can be there. There is no charge for the advice either way.
Can you deal with septic tanks and soakaways near Bonnyrigg?
Yes, on the properties around Bonnyrigg that are not on mains drainage. These are handled differently to sewer-connected systems and quoted separately. Most people in Bonnyrigg ask this, so you are not alone.
Do you cover both domestic and commercial work?
Yes — homeowners, landlords, factors, hospitality, retail and commercial sites.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry £5 million public liability insurance and hold NRSWA, high pressure water jetting and confined spaces credentials.
How quickly can you get to me?
We operate 24/7 across West Lothian, Edinburgh, Falkirk, Lanarkshire and Fife and aim to attend urgent work the same day.
