https://forcesg.uk/ 2026-10-10 weekly 1.0 https://forcesg.uk/logo.png Force Services Group logo Force Services Group — drainage, plumbing and civils in West Sussex https://forcesg.uk/hero.jpg Force Services Group brand visual https://forcesg.uk/gallery/drain-dye-tracing-clay-pipe-chamber.jpeg Drain dye tracing Fluorescent dye confirms where a clay drain runs and whether it is leaking into the chamber. We use dye tracing across West Sussex when the route, a misconnection or a leak is not obvious from the surface. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/rainwater-gully-dye-test-downpipe.jpeg Rainwater gully test A downpipe and gully checked with dye so surface water is proven to reach the right outlet. Useful when patios flood or a gully looks blocked but the real fault is further down the line. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-camera-push-rod-floor-excavation.jpeg Camera before we dig The push-rod camera is on the floor next to an opened soil connection. A CCTV drain survey shows the defect first, so any excavation for a repair stays as small as the job allows. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/hot-water-cylinder-thermostat-replacement.jpeg Cylinder thermostat Immersion and thermostat work on a hot water cylinder, including a seized pocket that had to come out. Part of our emergency plumbing for leaks, failed controls and pipework around the cylinder. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/blocked-toilet-waste-pipe-drain-rod.jpeg Toilet waste cleared An access panel opened so a rod can reach a blocked toilet waste without ripping the whole wall out. Typical of internal drain unblocking when the pan keeps backing up. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/grease-blockage-brick-inspection-chamber.jpeg Grease in the chamber A brick manhole choked with fat and solids around the outlet. High-pressure jetting and a follow-up CCTV survey clear the line and show whether the pipe itself is damaged. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/commercial-urinal-floor-channel-repair.jpeg Urinal channel repair Floor channel and gully reinstated in a commercial WC after a blockage and leak. We clear blocked urinals and put the drainage back so the room can stay in use. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/commercial-kitchen-grease-trap-blockage.jpeg Kitchen grease trap A commercial gully lifted to a solid mass of grease and food waste. Regular blockage clearance and jetting stop this reaching the underground drain and causing a wider backup. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/kitchen-sink-trap-and-waste-pipework.jpeg Sink waste rebuilt Trap and waste pipework under a sink, with the supplies left accessible. We sort slow wastes, leaks and poor falls before they turn into a recurring blocked drain. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-survey-scale-and-debris.jpeg Scale on camera Live CCTV at 0.9 m shows scale and debris sitting in the invert. The recording and depth readout become the evidence for jetting, descaling or a repair quote. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/macerator-toilet-installation.jpeg Macerator install A macerator fitted where a conventional soil fall is not available. We install and repair macerator toilets, including the discharge pipe and the electrics that keep them reliable. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-survey-clear-pipe.jpeg Line proven clear At 5.4 m the bore is open and round. After jetting or rodding we run the camera again so you can see the drain is clear, not just hope the blockage has moved. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/kitchen-sink-waste-fat-blockage.jpeg Fat in the sink waste The trap is off and the bore is packed with grease. Kitchen wastes are a common cause of blocked drains in homes and commercial kitchens across our patch. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/outdoor-drain-rodding-blocked-gully.jpeg Gully rodded outside A cordless rodder working a blocked external gully and waste run. Outdoor drain unblocking like this is often the first visit before any excavation. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/ridgid-drain-machine-domestic-blockage.jpeg Machine on the patio A drain machine staged outside a house so the cable can clear a domestic blockage with less mess indoors. We carry jetting and rodding kit for the same call-out. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-tree-root-ingress-drain-survey.jpeg Roots at 2.46 m Survey stills with roots filling the bore. Tree root cutting follows the camera so we cut where the roots are, then advise if the pipe needs a patch or a relay. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-survey-report-manhole.jpeg Written survey record Depth-stamped frames from a manhole-to-manhole CCTV survey. Insurers and buyers get the footage and the notes, not a verbal guess about the drain. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-cracked-drain-pipe-joint.jpeg Cracked joint on CCTV Longitudinal cracks and an open joint caught on camera. That is the difference between another clearance and a proper drain repair or CIPP lining. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-monitor-tree-roots-in-drain.jpeg Roots at 4.36 m The site monitor locks the depth while roots sit across the flow. We record it, cut the roots, and only excavate if the pipe will not hold. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/drain-rodding-brick-manhole.jpeg Rodding from the manhole Working down an open brick manhole to rod the outgoing drain. Access like this is how most blocked drains in older West Sussex properties actually get cleared. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-footage-debris-in-drain.jpeg Debris at the start The camera head meets debris as soon as it enters. High-pressure jetting shifts silt and scale, then a second pass confirms the bore. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-chain-flail-descaling.jpeg Descaling on camera A chain flail working the bore while the CCTV watches. Descaling removes hard scale that jetting alone will not shift, without digging the pipe up. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/collapsed-clay-drain-pipe-excavation.jpeg Collapsed clay drain The old clay run has dropped and broken in the pit. When a CCTV survey shows collapse, excavation and a new connection are the honest repair. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/pitch-fibre-drain-pipe-deformation.jpeg Pitch fibre deforming A pitch fibre drain ovaling at the chamber. These pipes blister and collapse with age. We survey them and then line or replace the failed section. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-drain-camera-scale-build-up.jpeg Scale at 1.96 m Heavy deposits on the pipe wall, recorded with depth. The clip supports a jetting and descaling visit instead of a blind dig. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/sewage-pump-control-panel.jpeg Pump panel live Control panel for a sewage pumping set, with level on the display and the isolator in place. We install and fault-find pumped drainage where gravity cannot take the flow. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/packaged-pump-station-chamber.jpeg Inside the pump station Twin pumps, floats and non-return valves in a packaged chamber. This is the plant behind basement and low-level drainage that will not fall to a sewer by gravity. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/basement-pump-station-installation.jpeg Basement pump install Chamber, rising main and wall-mounted panel in a plant room. A complete pumped drainage install, not just a pump dropped in a hole. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/leaking-stopcock-replacement-before-after.jpeg Stopcock replaced A weeping stopcock taken off and a new brass valve fitted on the rising main. Emergency plumbing for leaks that will not wait for a planned visit. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/pinhole-leak-copper-pipe-repair.jpeg Pinhole leak repaired A pinhole in copper, then a compression repair on the same run. We trace the weep, cut out the failed piece and leave the pipe tight. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/corroded-valve-replaced-with-brass-stopcock.jpeg Seized valve swapped The old valve is corroded shut. The replacement is a brass stopcock with a clean adaptor onto copper, so the supply can be isolated again. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/cctv-survey-displaced-drain-joint.jpeg Displaced joint The camera is looking at a joint that has shifted. Displacement lets roots in and catches debris. The survey decides between lining and a local excavation. https://forcesg.uk/gallery/toilet-blockage-clearance-ridgid-machine.jpeg Toilet blockage Cable from the drain machine into a blocked WC. Internal blockages are cleared on site, then we check the stack if the same pan keeps filling. https://forcesg.uk/drainage/horsham/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/crawley/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/mid-sussex/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/coast/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/brighton/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/croydon/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/surrey/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8 https://forcesg.uk/drainage/kent/ 2026-10-10 monthly 0.8
