Updated: Oct 9
An apartment in Bristol experienced restricted wastewater flow connected to an obstruction in the external main waste drainage. Aquablast’s original report records CCTV inspection followed by water jetting.

Problem and findings
The recorded assessment identified accumulated waste restricting passage from the apartment towards the garden drainage. Water was backing up. The report does not establish a collapsed pipe or structural repair, so those should not be presented as the diagnosis or outcome.
Recorded workflow
Inspect the affected drainage, including CCTV assessment.
Use a drain jetter to clear the obstruction.
Test water flow following clearance.
Explain the work and prevention advice to the customer.
Completed outcome
The original report records successful clearance during the first visit and normal drainage after the water test. Photographs were taken and shared with the customer. The result describes this specific visit, without promising a fixed response time or identical result for another property.
Frequently asked questions
Should I keep flushing a blocked toilet?
Stop flushing if the water is rising. More water can cause an overflow. Avoid using other affected fixtures until the problem is assessed.
Does one slow fixture mean the main drain is blocked?
Not necessarily. The restriction may be local to its trap or waste pipe. Several affected fixtures can suggest a downstream problem, but inspection is needed to establish the cause.
When might CCTV inspection be useful?
It can help when blockages recur, the cause is uncertain or a repair needs evidence. Ask whether inspection and a report are included in the agreed work.
Will every blockage be cleared with jetting?
No. The engineer selects a method based on access, pipe condition and the obstruction. Damaged or collapsed pipework may need separate repairs.
