Chelmsley Wood was constructed rapidly in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The building methods of that era included the widespread use of pitch-fibre pipes for domestic drainage. Pitch-fibre has a limited lifespan and is highly prone to blistering and inward collapse. If you are experiencing repeatedly blocked drains in Chelmsley Wood, there is a very high probability that a deteriorating pitch-fibre pipe is the root cause. We carry the specialist cutting equipment needed to re-round and reline these failing pipes.

Answers from our local engineers who work across Chelmsley Wood every day.
Pitch-fibre is an old pipe material made of wood pulp and coal tar. Over decades, it delaminates and blisters on the inside, restricting water flow and causing constant blockages.
No. We never charge a call-out fee. We assess the job and give you a fixed price before we start work.
We can reach most Chelmsley Wood addresses within about 30 minutes from our Solihull office. Emergency call-outs are prioritised and we aim to be on site as quickly as possible.
Yes. We re-round the deformed pipe using specialist tooling and then install a structural resin liner inside it. This creates a new pipe within the old one, restoring full flow capacity and preventing further collapse without needing to excavate.
Yes. Many of the terraced and semi-detached properties on the estate share lateral drainage runs. A blockage in one section can cause waste to back up into neighbouring properties. We use CCTV to trace the shared run and identify exactly where the blockage sits before any work begins.
The combined sewers built during the 1960s construction of the estate can surcharge during heavy rainfall, causing waste to back up through floor-level gullies. This is different from a private blockage. We always establish whether the cause is a private fault or a surcharging public sewer before recommending work.
Yes. We offer emergency call-outs across the B37 postcode. There is no additional charge for emergency attendance. We agree a fixed price on site before starting work.
