Heatwave Headaches: How Dry Weather Affects Kingston’s Drains

Blocked drains in Kingston

Table of Contents

When summer heat scorches Kingston Upon Thames, it’s not just gardens that suffer—your underground drain system does too.

At Kingston Upon Thames Drains24, we’ve seen a sharp rise in calls for drain unblocking during dry spells. Why? Because drought conditions create the perfect storm for drain damage.

🌱 How Dry Weather Damages Drain Pipes

In prolonged heat, the soil contracts and shifts. This movement can:

  • Crack or misalign older clay or pitch fibre pipes
  • Create small openings where water leaks
  • Invite tree roots to break in seeking moisture

Once roots get inside, they grow fast—causing partial or total blockages, especially in older homes around Surbiton, Norbiton, Coombe, and Kingston Hill.

🔍 Warning Signs to Watch For:

  • Slow-draining sinks or showers
  • Gurgling toilets
  • Bad smells from external drains
  • Overflowing or damp areas in your garden

Ignoring these signs could result in major pipe damage, leading to expensive emergency repairs.
