Services
Blocked Drains
We specialise in rapid unblocking of residential and commercial drains using high-pressure water jetting and mechanical rodding. Our engineers clear obstructions caused by debris, tree roots, or structural issues. Every unblocking service includes a complimentary CCTV inspection to identify underlying problems.
CCTV Drain Surveys
Our advanced CCTV camera systems inspect drain interiors to detect cracks, collapses, or blockages. This non-invasive method provides real-time video footage and precise location data. Surveys help prevent future issues by identifying defects in pipework and joints.
Drain Relining
We offer trenchless drain relining to repair damaged pipes without excavation. This method uses cured-in-place liners to create a durable, seamless replacement pipe. Ideal for cracked, leaking, or root-damaged drains, with minimal disruption to property.
Rat Investigations
Our team identifies drain-related rat infestations by inspecting for entry points and structural weaknesses. We collaborate with pest controllers to seal underground access points. Solutions include repairing damaged pipes and installing rat-proof barriers.
Smell Investigations
We diagnose persistent drain odours using smoke testing and CCTV inspections. Our process locates faulty traps, damaged pipework, or underground leaks. Solutions include pipe repairs, vent installation, and comprehensive drain cleaning.

Very helpful, very friendly service! I called at 9am to report a blocked kitchen sink. A very friendly engineer was here before the morning was out and got everything working again with no fuss. Highly recommended.

Thank you for your prompt response today to a drain issue. Luke was very polite and happy to explain what the problem was, and although it took a bit longer than expected to clear, I must now have the cleanest drains in Wiltshire!

Very prompt and helpful service - faster than I was expecting. The chap that came was super efficient, very personable, explained clearly what he was doing, and managed to solve both problems completely and tidily. Definitely worth using. Thank you, Alpha Rod.

Fantastic service from the moment I made the initial call to the engineer driving away after completing the work. I have been in construction for 40+ years, and can happily say Alpha Rod are up with some of the best I have ever come across. If needed, would definitely use them again.

I spoke to Pandora who was extremely helpful and patient in explaining costs and also took time in understanding what the problem actually was. Gordon arrived within 2 hours of ringing and the problem was resolved within 30 minutes. Everyone was polite and professional. Would certainly recommend. Thank you

Friendly and professional team, shout out to Glen Houston, very hard working and professional chap, good to have on board. Definitely recommend Alpha Rod, got their number out of Dentons directory.
Alpha Rod definitely got me out of a jam. Word to the wise, if you put expanding foam down holes next to a drain, absolutely make sure you've not got a hole in your drain beforehand.
