Hand on heart: most people only think about their sewer system when it's already too late - clogged, silted up or smelling bad. Our approach is different: we start early to prevent emergencies from occurring in the first place.
During a professional sewer cleaning in Thun, we remove everything that blocks the flow from your sewer pipes - from stubborn deposits and root ingrowth to grease and limescale. Whether it's a detached house on Lake Thun, a business in the city center or large-scale municipal infrastructure - we work precisely, thoroughly and with the latest flushing and camera technology.
We always look beyond the acute problem. We check the entire pipe system to identify weak points at an early stage and extend the service life of your sewer system in the long term. This saves you time, money - and a lot of stress.
Years of experience
Thun has many facets - from historic old town streets to charming neighborhoods and modern new development areas. Deposits, blockages and even pipe damage are particularly common in older properties or densely built-up street sections.
Sometimes it is due to the low gradient of the pipes, sometimes to the building fabric - often it is a combination of different factors. One thing is certain: only a look inside the pipe system reveals the true extent of the problem.
Our experience from numerous operations in Thun and the surrounding area is clear: those who have their drains checked and cleaned at an early stage save money. Regular sewer cleaning prevents backwater, reduces the risk of costly water damage and often makes expensive renovations unnecessary.
And yes - people often say: "It still works." This is exactly the right time to act with foresight.

"The bistro in the city center suddenly had water in the kitchen - right in front of the lunch service. The guys were there less than an hour later. Really saved our day."
"At first I wasn't sure whether I should call someone because of a strange smell. Luckily I called - it was actually a small root ingrowth. I'm really glad it was discovered so early."
Our experience shows: In Thun, blockages or deposits occur more frequently, especially in older districts such as the old town, Allmendingen or Steffisburg. This is often due to narrow pipe cross-sections, low gradients or older buildings.
Typical triggers are grease and limescale deposits, foreign bodies that do not belong in the drain and root ingrowth in old pipes. Rainwater and meltwater can also cause problems on slopes around Lake Thun if drains are not regularly maintained.
But don't worry: you will always receive a transparent quote in advance.
Depending on usage, we recommend professional cleaning every 1-3 years. For restaurants, hotels or apartment buildings, annual maintenance may be advisable - especially to avoid expensive emergencies.
As a rule, we will be with you within 60 minutes - whether in the middle of the night, at the weekend or on public holidays. Blockages don't know office hours, and we won't keep you waiting.

"We had been having problems with a floor drain in the laundry room for months. The team not only fixed it quickly, but also drew up a maintenance plan for us straight away. No more trouble since then."
