Firstly, Sorry for the poor British weather. In this one we had strong wind and rain but we did our best considering the conditions.
This Blocked drain was caused by a blocked septic tank overflow to a soak away. when we investigated we were told the property was on the main and first acted as if it was. We quickly discovered there was indeed a septic tank system in place.
We first set out to unblock the kitchen sink gully as we were called to do and it was blocked but when the blockage cleared the water kept coming back, this was the first sign something wasn't right. we moved on to the next IC and found the same situation but this one was not blocked.
we moved on the the final IC and this one was the inlet to a very old septic treatment system. we found the inlet was blocked and once we moved the blockage the rest of the drain line began to empty. However, this was short lived as the septic tank was full above the outlet to the overflow to the soak away pit. we checked the soak away pit and found someone had installed a filter bar on the outlet, likely to prevent rodents from entering the system and intern the house.
we removed the filter bar, cleared it of obstructions and reinstalled it. once the filter bar was cleaned the rest of the drainage system emptied as expected and we were all done.
