Blocked Drains in Boston from £120 + VAT
This is our starting price. The final price depends on the job — access, depth and what we find on site — and we always confirm a fixed price before any work starts. No call-out fee. Call 07300 600 950 for a quote.
In Boston the public sewers belong to Anglian Water. If the blockage is in a pipe you share with a neighbour, or beyond your boundary, it's normally the water company's to clear — call Anglian Water on 03457 145 145. If it's in a drain that serves only your property, it's yours, and that's where we come in. Our engineer finds the blockage first and tells you whose it is before any work starts.
Water pooling around a road gully outside? Road drains are Lincolnshire County Council's responsibility — report it to the council. We clear private gullies, channels and manholes anywhere in Boston town centre, Skirbeck, Wyberton, Fishtoft and the rest of PE21.
What We Know About Boston
In the early hours of 6 January 2025, 38 homes on Wyberton West Road and Park Road in Boston flooded inside. Lincolnshire County Council's Section 19 investigation found several causes working together: rain and snowmelt across the Black Sluice catchment, tidal locking that stopped the South Forty Foot Drain discharging into the Haven, and water overtopping low wall sections along the drain's southern bank.
Few towns show as clearly how much drainage depends on water being able to get away. Your own drains still need to be clear, because a pipe that is already partly blocked fails sooner when the wider system is under strain.
Most blockages are more everyday than that. In October 2025 Anglian Water said it had removed 18,071 unflushable items, mostly wipes, from blockage hotspots in eight weeks, using devices it calls sewer "hedgehogs" to catch them. It says 80% of the blockages it deals with are avoidable. We clear household blockages with rods or jetting, and use a camera if the same drain keeps blocking. The starting price is £120 + VAT.
