Vortex Plumbing & Drainage Ltd keeps drains flowing across Dartford for homeowners, landlords and businesses alike. From a slow kitchen sink to a flooded yard, we clear blockages, run CCTV surveys, jet out heavy build-ups and carry out lasting repairs. We answer the phone day and night and aim to reach urgent jobs within the hour.
A blocked drain in Dartford never waits for a convenient time. That is why we answer the phone day and night and aim to be on site within the hour for urgent jobs. We clear blocked gullies, overflowing manholes, slow sinks and backed-up toilets, then tell you exactly what caused the problem so it does not keep coming back. When you need us in a hurry, our blocked drain clearance service is ready around the clock, with every price agreed up front and no hidden charges.
Blocked toilets, baths, sinks and basins are the jobs we handle most days in Dartford. Wipes, hair, grease and scale are the usual culprits, and we remove them with the right manual or mechanical tools rather than guesswork. From a single bathroom to a busy commercial kitchen, we get everything draining freely again. If your blocked toilet keeps coming back, we will find the cause and put it right for good.
Our jetting service is the quickest way to clear heavy build-ups inside drains and underground pipework. High pressure water scours away grease, limescale, silt and root matter without any need to dig up your garden or driveway. It works just as well as a one-off emergency clearance or as planned maintenance for Dartford homes and businesses that depend on free-flowing drains.
When a problem keeps coming back, a camera tells the real story. Our CCTV drain surveys send a small camera through your pipes to pinpoint cracks, root ingress, displaced joints and blockages. You get HD footage, a written summary and plain advice on what to do next. Surveys are ideal for ongoing drainage trouble, pre-purchase checks on a Dartford property, and insurance or build-over reports.
From a cracked gully to a collapsed underground run, we repair and replace drainage across Dartford. Our work includes no-dig pipe relining, patch repairs and traditional excavation, plus fresh drainage for extensions and new builds. Everything is finished to current regulations and built to last, so you are not paying for the same fault twice.
Dartford mixes Victorian terraces with newer riverside developments and large estates, so drainage here ranges from original clay pipes to modern systems that still suffer surface water and grease problems. We work on all of it, from the town centre out to Stone, Wilmington and the riverside.
We cover every part of Dartford, including Stone, Wilmington, Joydens Wood, Temple Hill and Greenhithe, along with the DA1 and DA2 postcodes. We also look after the neighbouring towns and villages, so if you are close by we can usually help on the same day. Drainage trouble in Bexleyheath, Greenhithe, Swanley and Gravesend is no problem at all.
Homeowners, letting agents, landlords and commercial sites all use us because we are quick, tidy and honest about what a job needs. No call-out is too small, and no blockage is too stubborn.

When a drain backs up, you want a team that is fast, local and straight with you about the price. That is exactly what we are. We have cleared and repaired drains across Kent for years, and we treat every Dartford job, large or small, with the same care.
