I called Urban Reactive to look at a blocked soil pipe with suspected root intrusion. Luke was able to give me a good idea of cost over the phone, and had a team out to me at my earliest convenience. The guys gave me lots of information about what they were looking at and talked me through how best to resolve it. It was all very transparent and informative and they went ahead and fixed the problem with a resin casing, and showed me a video on completion. Everything is working fine again within the day and I'll be sure to call them again if I have any other problems with my drainage system.

I never thought I’d need a ‘drain man’, but having bought an aging house that had stood empty for a while and was in need of refurbishment, I found I did. Luke and his team have kept my system going whilst preparing for the build. They are knowledgable, efficient and quickly responsive in an emergency. They will be my drain company of choice when I refurbish my home. If you need a go-to drain company, Urban-Reactive are the best! Highly recommended.

I cannot recommend Urban Reactive too highly. They delivered on time, to budget and to a really high standard, a new driveway at the front of my home. This required extensive works, including the removal of a large volume of concrete, new drainage and the creation of garden space. Everyone involved was truly a pleasure to deal with, unfailingly tidy, and very considerate. Having been recently widowed I was nervous about carrying out works alone - they made the process a pleasure.

A very professional service. Quick response to our enquiry. Peace of mind to have our old drains checked with up to date technology. We were able to get repairs done without digging up our driveway. Highly recommended

Very professional, efficient and friendly service at a competitive rate. The response to my enquiry was very quick and the information provided was clear and easy to understand. The team arrived on the day and time quoted and ensured I was advised on what they were doing at every stage of the job. They were very polite and left the work area clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to use them again and recommend them to anyone else.

Sewer pipe blocked on 1st Jan and a well-known national company came out and jetted it but did not put a camera down and it blocked again days later. Insurance company sent another big company out who put a camera down, told me that the problem was tree roots but did not fix it. Urban-reactive came out, got rid of the roots and then came back a couple of weeks later to repair the pipe and raise manholes above the patio. Did a very nice job.

This is an exceptional company, Luke is extremely knowledgeable and works with you to come up with a solution. His team is professional and reliable. My experience of Urban-Reactive was excellent, both in undertaking the survey and delivery of a solution. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Great job carried out by Urban Reactive today. Damp living room wall caused by blocked gully on roof & blocked downpipe & drain full of roots. Blockage cleared,drain rebuilt with concrete & brick surround.All debris taken away. The lads were very respectful of my property whilst carrying out some of the work via a velux window in loft bedroom.
Very reliable,would highly recommend.

Groundworks in Ellesmere Port

Groundworks in Ellesmere Port involve all preparatory work below ground level before construction starts. Inaccurate execution at this stage can lead to structural problems later. As a result, we meticulously plan each site.

We prepare land for extensions, new constructions, and commercial spaces, including excavation, drainage planning, and foundation work. With our drainage expertise, we always assess water flow and soil conditions before pouring concrete.

Site Clearance and Preparation

Groundworks in Ellesmere Port always begin with proper site clearance and preparation. Before any build begins, we remove debris, old structures, and unstable materials. Then, we level and compact the ground to form a solid base.

This stage sets the tone for the whole project. If preparation is rushed, movement and cracking often follow. Therefore, we assess soil conditions and existing drainage before excavation continues. Where underground pipework may be present, we recommend a CCTV Drain Survey to avoid unexpected damage.

Concrete Slab Installation

Concrete slabs must be laid on firm, well-compacted ground. First, we carefully prepare the sub-base. Next, we install membranes and reinforcement where required.

We also form the slab with correct falls. As a result, surface water drains away from the structure rather than collecting against it. If damaged pipework is located beneath the build area, we resolve it early through Drain Repairs.

Trenchless Excavation Services

Where access is limited or surfaces need protection, trenchless excavation offers a practical solution. Instead of opening long trenches, we work through controlled access points.

This method reduces disruption to driveways and landscaping. Moreover, it keeps reinstatement costs lower. If blockages or intruding roots appear during the process, we address them immediately with Drain Unblocking or Root Removal.

Utility Ducting and Water Main Installation

We install utility ducting and water mains in line with current regulations. Accurate trenching and correct spacing between services are essential.

By planning service routes carefully, we prevent leaks, movement and cross-interference with drainage lines. This attention to detail protects the system long term.

Sewer Connection Services

Connecting to the main sewer requires careful grading and secure joints. We manage sewer connection services in Ellesmere Port from excavation to final testing.

Before backfilling, we confirm flow direction and watertight connections. This ensures the system performs properly from day one.
