Drainage Services Across West Lothian
Based in Pumpherston and working across every town and village in West Lothian, from Linlithgow and Bo'ness down to Fauldhouse and out to the Calders.
- 1You ring and speak to an engineer, not an answering service.
- 2We tell you honestly when we can be with you in West Lothian and what it is likely to cost.
- 3We jet or rod the drain, clear it, then show you the cause on camera before we leave.
West Lothian is our home county. We are based at Letham Gardens in Pumpherston, which sits almost in the middle of it, so wherever you are between Kirkliston and Fauldhouse we are a short run away. That is the single biggest reason our response times here are better than a firm covering the same postcode from Glasgow or Edinburgh.
The county's drainage is unusually varied for its size. Linlithgow and Bo'ness have historic stone property with original clay pipework and, in places, drainage that predates any record of it. The shale villages at Pumpherston, Seafield, Winchburgh, Broxburn and Uphall were built for the oil works and carry runs laid into made ground that has settled over a century. Livingston is a planned new town with phased systems from the 1960s onward. Armadale, Whitburn, Blackburn and Fauldhouse mix former mining housing with very large modern estates.
We cover all of it with the same equipment and the same approach: clear the blockage, then camera the run and tell you what caused it, so you know whether you have had a one off or a defect that will keep catching.

Made ground and the shale villages
Anywhere built on or near the old shale bings has ground that has moved, and drainage laid into it moves with it. That produces a particular pattern of fault: not a single dramatic collapse but a slow loss of fall, a dip that holds water, and a run that blocks at the same spot forever. Jetting keeps it going. A survey tells you whether re-laying that short section would end it for good.
