Inverkeithing drainage FAQs
What should I do before you arrive in Inverkeithing?
Stop using water in the property if it is backing up, clear access to the chamber if you can find it, and take a photo of the overflow — it helps us bring the right kit to Inverkeithing first time. There is no charge for the advice either way.
Do you handle commercial premises near Inverkeithing High Street?
Frequently. We schedule Inverkeithing commercial work around trading hours, including overnight, so kitchens and shop floors are not shut during service. Ring 07427 195142 if you want that checked before booking.
How long does a typical Inverkeithing visit take?
A straightforward clearance is usually under an hour. A survey of a full run takes longer because we record the footage properly. Either way you are told the likely duration before we set off for KY11. Most people in Inverkeithing ask this, so you are not alone.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes. If the same fault returns within the guarantee period we come back to Inverkeithing at no charge — and if the cause is structural we will have flagged that on the first visit rather than after it. Ask when you call and we will confirm it for your address.
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.
