24-hour drain unblocking service in Dénia: emergency tanker truck

What we do in an emergency unblocking situation

1) Rapid assessment of the call-out
We confirm the symptom (overflow, slow drainage, odour), the affected area (bathroom, kitchen, patio, garage) and access for the lorry. We advise you on how to minimise damage until we arrive (turn off taps, avoid flushing, clear the area).

2) High-pressure and suction unblocking
We use pressurised water and suction equipment from the tanker lorry to break up and remove grease, wipes, sand or roots. We protect passageways and leave the work area clean.

3) Flow verification
We test the flow with water and, if necessary, open manholes to check that no material is retained. In complex cases, we recommend inspecting the pipes with a camera to confirm their internal condition and prevent recurrence.

4) Brief report and prevention
We provide specific recommendations (e.g., cleaning siphons, scheduling drainpipe inspections, checking ventilation). If we detect structural defects, we assess pipe repairs without construction work or pipe milling.

Advantages of our 24/7 service in Dénia

• Continuous response: year-round coverage for emergencies.

• Own tanker truck: high-flow suction and pressurised water to speed up resolution.

• Clean intervention: floor protection, waste removal and tidiness in the work area.

• Actual diagnosis: possibility of video inspection and report with images.

• Permanent solutions: milling and even trenchless internal repair where appropriate.

• Prevention: clear guidelines to prevent the jam from recurring.

Types of incidents we resolve on a daily basis

• Blockages in the kitchen caused by grease and food scraps.

• Blockages in the bathroom: toilet, shower, sink, bidet.

• Overflowing drains and manholes in communities.

• Overflowing patios and terraces after rainfall.

• Flooded garages or basements (pump out with a tank when necessary).

• Roots in pipes, sediment and sand in service connections.

If the blockage is caused by an overflowing septic tank, we will coordinate the emptying and cleaning from the septic tank extraction page.

Regular service areas in Dénia

We attend emergencies in Dénia town centre, Les Marines, Les Rotes, Montgó, La Pedrera, Troyas and nearby residential areas. We also cover neighbouring residential areas and industrial estates, depending on access and lorry availability.

Note: actual times depend on traffic, access and notification queue. If the property has complex access, please indicate this during the call so that we can plan the lorry manoeuvre and hose points.

When is it advisable to add a camera or a repair without construction work?

There are symptoms that indicate a structural defect beyond a temporary blockage:

• Repeated traffic jams at the same spot.

• Gurgling and odour return after intensive use.

• Slow drainage despite previous cleaning.
  In these cases, we recommend inspection with a camera to locate counter-slopes, deformations, open joints or roots. Once the problem area has been detected, we can repair it without construction work or milling and close it with a flow test.

Tips for avoiding another emergency

• Kitchen: collect oils in a container; do not pour them down the sink.

• Toilet: only toilet paper; never wipes, sanitary towels or cotton buds.

• Siphons: prime them in rooms that are rarely used, especially in second homes.

• Rainwater drainage: clean terrace drains before the rains come.

• Maintenance: if you have a septic tank, schedule inspections and emptying according to usage; if it is a community tank, consider a maintenance contract (ask us for information via contact).

How to prepare for the tanker truck visit

1. Clear access routes (cars on ramps, furniture in courtyards).

2. Indicates the approximate location of manholes or pits.

3. Please refrain from using water in the bathrooms/kitchen until we arrive.

4. Pets and children: keep them away from the work area.

5. Documentation: if you are a property manager, have the keys to technical rooms and the premises’ operating licence to hand, if applicable.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

1) How long does it take to unblock a drain with a tanker truck?
It depends on access, the material causing the blockage, and whether manholes need to be opened or a camera added. In many domestic incidents, the problem is quickly resolved, but in long networks or those with roots, it may take longer (or a second visit with milling).

2) Will it leave odours or dirt behind?
We work with protective equipment and remove any waste generated. At the end, we check the flow rate and, if necessary, leave guidelines for temporary ventilation. If you detect a persistent odour, we can inspect with a camera to rule out waste bags or poor ventilation.

3) Can you come in the evening or on public holidays?
Yes. That’s what our 24-hour and urgent services are for. Please provide the address and type of access so we can plan the lorry.

4) The blockage keeps happening in the same bathroom. What should I do?
Ideally, you should have it inspected with a camera. If we see roots, encrustations or an open joint, we will assess whether milling or repair without construction work is required.

5) Do you serve communities and hospitality establishments?
Yes. We coordinate with management or the person in charge, plan access and, if necessary, propose preventive maintenance. Write to us via the contact form.

6) What can I do if the garage is flooded?
Cut off the electricity in the affected area if it is safe to do so, avoid entering deep areas and call us. We pump out water using a tanker when necessary and check the network to prevent further overflowing.

7) Do you also work with septic tanks?
Yes. If the source is a saturated pit, we coordinate the emptying and cleaning from septic tank extraction and, if necessary, we close with a camera inspection.
