Services
Drain unblocking
Our drain unblocking service resolves blocked drains, sinks, toilets, and manholes using modern equipment. We guarantee successful clearance of blockages in domestic and commercial properties. Our engineers respond rapidly to emergencies, employing high-pressure water jetting and mechanical rodding techniques to restore proper drainage function while minimizing property disruption.
Pipe repairs
We provide comprehensive pipe repair services for burst pipes, leaking joints, and damaged pipework. Our qualified plumbers use industry-approved materials to repair both internal and external plumbing systems. Emergency call-outs ensure rapid response to water leaks, with temporary fixes and permanent replacements available for all property types.
CCTV surveys
Our CCTV drain surveys identify blockages, cracks, and structural issues in drainage systems. High-resolution cameras inspect pipes from 150mm to 1500mm diameter, providing detailed reports with digital footage. This non-invasive technique enables accurate diagnosis of drainage problems and informs appropriate repair strategies without unnecessary excavation.
Emergency plumbing
Available 24/7, our emergency plumbing service addresses urgent issues like burst pipes, severe leaks, and drainage failures. Rapid-response engineers carry essential tools and spare parts to resolve critical problems swiftly. We prioritize water damage prevention and system stabilization during out-of-hours emergencies across residential and commercial properties.
No-dig repairs
Our no-dig repair technology fixes damaged drains without excavation. Patch lining and full pipe relining techniques restore pipe integrity through small access points. This minimally invasive method preserves landscaping and reduces repair times, offering cost-effective alternatives to traditional drain replacement for various pipe diameters.

Brilliant. Had a leaking mixer tap that was causing so much noise. Called JLM and they made time for me the next day. Fixed within 30 mins. Cannot fault and will definitely recommend.

A marvellous job from start to finish. It was a real pleasure to have James come to work on our back garden/patio flooding problem. He was extremely hard working yet always took time to patiently answer our questions. Would I recommend him to others? Absolutely!

Must agree with all other positive reviews about JLM Utilities.
James did a first class job on fixing my drain problem. He turned up when he said he would and stuck with the work until
it was complete. Also worked through torrential rain to get the
job finished. Can't recommend James highly enough.
