Local Heroes Drainage Engineering Jobs
One of the most frequent questions we receive from customers is "what's the difference between a plumber and a drainage engineer?" and it's a good question. If you have an issue with the pipes in your home, whether that's water not draining or water not coming out of the right pipes, most people are likely to assume they require a plumber.
That may be true, especially if you have a problem with a dripping tap or no water at all, but if you have a problem with water not draining correctly, it's more likely that you need a drainage engineer.
A simple rule to remember is "inside for plumber, outside for drainage", in short, if you have issues with water coming in to the house, you need a plumber; if you have problems with water going out of the house, you need a drainage engineer.
Do I need a drainage engineer?
It can be difficult to tackle drainage work such as adding or repairing a drainage pipe connection on your property or carrying out a CCTV inspection of external drains to check for blockages. A drainage engineer is equipped with the specialist equipment to look at the issues in detail and ensure all problems are properly rectified.
