Case study at a glance
Location: Uphill, Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset.
Reported issue: blocked drains at the property.
Finding and work: a substantial quantity of wet wipes was found during a jetting clearance.
Recorded outcome: clearance completed; a cover for a 100 mm gully was recommended as follow-up work.
The problem: blocked drainage at the property
Aquablast was asked to attend a property in Uphill, Weston-super-Mare, to inspect a blocked drain and carry out the necessary work.
What our engineer found
During the work, the engineer found a substantial quantity of wet wipes in the drainage system. The completion note describes the wipes as a possible contributor to the blockage, rather than conclusively establishing them as the sole cause.
The solution: high-pressure water jetting
Aquablast used high-pressure water jetting to clear the blocked drains. The original photograph attached to the job shows material photographed during the clearance visit.
The recorded result and follow-up recommendation
The drainage clearance was recorded as completed. The engineer also recommended a cover for a 100 mm gully to help prevent rubbish entering the drain. The record does not say that a cover was fitted, so installation is not claimed as part of the completed work.
What this job demonstrates
The workflow combined blockage clearance with a practical follow-up recommendation. Keeping those actions separate makes the case study clear: the jetting was completed, while the gully cover remained a recommendation.
Photographs from the drainage visit
Material photographed during the Uphill drainage clearance. The engineer recorded a substantial quantity of wet wipes as a possible contributor to the blockage and completed clearance by water jetting.
