Hi, wondering if anyone can help...
A couple of weeks ago our drains blocked, (it's a Victorian terraced house in London). When we opened the manhole cover at the bottom of the garden there was earth, (under one cubic foot), blocking the main drain just before it enters the interceptor. All the sewage was backing up behind this obstruction. I cleared it and everything ran okay.
Now, two weeks later, exactly the same thing has happened again. Before I start getting expensive camera surveys done, does anyone have any idea what this can be? Is it a broken pipe letting in earth? If so how comes it has taken so long for it to block again?
Any suggestions gratefully received!!!
