Kettering Blocked Downpipe – Part 2
by steve
Welcome to Part 2 of our blocked downpipe project in Kettering. In Part 1, we diagnosed a blockage causing serious overflow issues. Now, we’ll walk you through how we fully cleared the system, tested the flow, and restored proper drainage — all in one tidy visit.
Step 2: Full Clearance and Flush
We dismantled the bottom section of the downpipe
Used specialist equipment to remove compacted moss and silt
Flushed the full length of the pipe using high-pressure water
Checked water flow from top to bottom — confirmed clear drainage
Step 3: Final Checks and Clean-Up
Reassembled and secured all brackets
Checked alignment and joints for leaks
Inspected the underground drain connection
Cleaned up all removed debris and water runoff
The Result:
A fully working downpipe, no more overflow, and a relieved homeowner in Kettering. We recommended seasonal gutter and downpipe checks to prevent future issues.
