A Canbury drainage engineer,
on call 24/7 with a clear price before we start.

Canbury is the grid of Victorian terraces between Richmond Road and the river, just north of Kingston station, so we can usually be there in minutes rather than hours. It's a mix of young families, renters and flat conversions, and that mix works the old pipework hard. In KT2 we get called for blocked kitchen drains, leaking stopcocks, washing machines plumbed into kitchens never designed for them, and the shared back runs that let one household's wet wipes block three sinks at once.

Coming from the town centre it's straight up Richmond Road, two minutes on a clear run. Canbury Gardens sits along the Thames at the edge of the grid, and the streets behind it test their gullies every autumn once the riverside leaves come down. Our honest take on Canbury: the terraces' shared clay runs are the weak point. When one blocks, don't assume your own kitchen caused it.

Most common Canbury jobs

• Shared terrace drains, one blockage, three angry kitchens
• Leaking stopcocks and old gate valves that won't shut off
• Blocked gullies each autumn when the leaves come down near the river
• Washing machine and dishwasher plumbing squeezed into Victorian kitchens
• Descaling cast-iron stacks in the flat conversions
