Drain Cleaning Service
Commercial Drain Cleaning
Commercial drain cleaning, clearing and planned maintenance across the UK, with priority cover across Greater Manchester and the North West. Commercial drainage is higher-stakes than domestic plumbing. In a warehouse, a blocked yard gully can flood a loading bay fast. In a restaurant, a fat build-up can trigger odours, downtime, and an Environmental Health headache. Aspin Group provides commercial drain cleaning and maintenance that fixes the immediate problem and reduces repeat callouts. UK-wide coverage for multi-site clients, with priority response across Greater Manchester and the North West.

Drain Cleaning & Emergency Unblocking
Most commercial drain callouts happen when something has already gone wrong. The mistake is treating every blockage the same way and hoping it stays solved. That is how sites end up paying for the same issue twice. We clear blockages, but we also look at why they formed in the first place. Grease build-up, urinal scale, hard-water scale, silt and leaf litter, or structural faults all need a different approach.
We support commercial drainage across restaurants and commercial kitchens, schools and universities, offices and multi-tenant buildings, warehouses and distribution centres, healthcare and public buildings, and leisure sites. If the building has washrooms, kitchens, staff welfare areas, external gullies, or busy footfall, drainage needs proper maintenance, not occasional emergency fixes.
The right method depends on the problem, the pipework, and the risk on site. Typical work includes:
Clearing blockages and restoring flow
High-pressure water jetting to remove build-up
FOG build-up removal on kitchen lines, including fats, oils and grease deposits
Urinal scale removal where the uric acid scale is narrowing the pipework in the washroom stacks
Descaling for hard-water scale build-up in problem areas
External drainage and yard gullies, including silt and leaf litter clearance
Planned maintenance schedules to reduce repeat incidents
Root-cause diagnostics using CCTV surveys when the issue keeps returning, or the cause is unclear
We do not just punch a hole through a blockage and leave you to deal with it again next month. When a drain keeps blocking, there is usually a reason.
A CCTV survey is often the quickest way to move from reactive spending to planned maintenance. It helps identify whether the issue is FOG accumulation, scale narrowing the bore, a damaged connection, root ingress, a partial collapse, or poor fall. Once you know the cause, you can fix the right thing and stop the repeat callouts.

Client Testimonials
What our commercial cleaning clients say
On behalf of B & E Boys I would like to thank you for all your help over the past few months, from last minute builders cleans to recently taking on one of our largest properties within our Property Portfolio. Aspin Group have been nothing but friendly and professional throughout everything so far, and your advice provided to us has also been invaluable. We look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.
I've been working with Aspin for a while now, and they consistently impress me with their deep expertise in their field. They are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure my needs are met, offering proactive solutions and clear communication throughout the entire process.
We started using Aspin in 2018 as a company we out grew our previous building and moved into a new one, leaving the 2 building to much for our inhouse cleaners. We have our regular cleaner who is reliable and who has been amazing through the current situation, we can ask them to change hours and do additional hours at any time. We have regular visits and audits asking if everything is OK and how can they improve anything to make things better. I would definitely recommend Aspin you feel like they care about your company as if it was their own .

FAQ
Commercial drain cleaning questions, answered
Everything you need to know about our cleaning services in Manchester and across the UK.
Can’t find what you need? Our team is ready to answer any specific questions about your site.
Why does my commercial kitchen drain keep blocking even after it has been jetted?
Usually, because jetting clears the soft centre of a blockage but leaves build-up on the pipe walls. Over time, fats, oils and grease can harden and narrow the pipe again. We look at the full line, clear properly, and recommend a maintenance schedule to stop rebuilding.
What causes bad drain smells in restaurants and commercial kitchens?
Most commonly, grease build-up, trapped food waste, and biofilm in pipework. If smells keep returning, it usually points to a build-up further down the line, not just a local trap.
What causes repeated washroom blockages in commercial buildings?
Common causes include a urinal scale from uric acid build-up, foreign objects, and poor maintenance in high-use stacks. Descaling and a planned schedule often solve repeated issues.
Do you clear external yard gullies and surface water drains?
Yes. Yard gullies often block due to silt, leaf litter and debris. We clear the gully and can put a routine schedule in place for sites where the risk is high.
When should we use a CCTV drain survey?
If the problem keeps returning, if the cause is unclear, or if you suspect a structural issue such as root ingress, a damaged run, or poor fall. It is the fastest way to stop paying for guesswork.
Do you provide RAMS and work safely on live sites?
Yes. We provide site-specific RAMS where required, follow COSHH-compliant methods, and complete any inductions or permits needed before starting.
How do you price commercial drain cleaning?
Pricing depends on the issue type, access, severity, whether jetting, descaling, or CCTV diagnostics are required, and whether it is a one-off callout or part of a maintenance plan. A site visit allows accurate pricing.
