Stop rats at the point they get in

Rat problems often start below ground, where damaged sewer lines give pests a direct route into your property. We trace that entry point properly, so you're not left dealing with the same issue again a few weeks later. Our work focuses on faults such as cracked pipes, failed joints and missing vent guards that let rats move through the drainage system, frequently addressing these breaches via our specialised patch repair services. We handle this for homes and business premises across Derby, with a clear plan based on what we actually find. Hi - Flow Drains Ltd takes a practical approach that deals with the cause rather than just the mess it leaves behind. That means you get rat mitigation work that protects your building as well as your peace of mind.

What we look for during mitigation work

A proper inspection tells us where the breach is and how rats are getting through, especially around extensions where connections are sometimes poorly sealed. We check the condition of the affected line and look for structural weaknesses that can keep inviting the problem back, utilising comprehensive CCTV drain surveys to examine underground areas clearly.

 

Our high-pressure water jetting certification supports safe, effective drainage work where cleaning or access preparation is needed. In lighter infestations, fixing the defect can bring long-term relief without constant baiting or trapping. You'll know what needs doing, why it matters, and what the most sensible next step is.

James from Hi-Flow Drains helped us with a blocked drain. Very professional and friendly service and very quick response. He cleared the blockage, tested all drains to make sure they are free flowing and cleaned everything afterwards. I can't recommend James and the company enough.
