Your project in the canton of Basel-Landschaft
Basel-Landschaft largely surrounds the city of Basel and extends towards the hills of the Tabular Jura. The municipalities near the border, such as Allschwil, Binningen, Muttenz and Pratteln, are densely built, with apartment blocks, business areas and terraced houses. Further south, Liestal has kept a compact old town, while Sissach and the villages of the Ergolz valley retain a rural character, with farmhouses and cherry orchards. Post-war houses and those from the following decades are common and are often due for energy upgrades or new kitchens and bathrooms. The canton is German-speaking, but you can still describe your project in English. For alterations affecting the outside of a building, check with your municipality. Add the village or town and postcode, together with delivery arrangements in the village street or residential area.
- For a post-war house, describe the current condition of the heating and windows.
- In a densely built municipality such as Allschwil or Binningen, mention the parking options in front of the building.
- For a former farmhouse, describe which parts are to be converted and which are to stay as they are.
Drain unblocking in the canton of Basel-Landschaft
In Basel-Landschaft, suburban municipalities such as Allschwil and Muttenz have many villa estates and condominium buildings built at the same time, with drainage networks that are ageing together. The roots of garden trees readily work their way into the joints of old stoneware pipes. Further up, towards Liestal and Sissach, clay soil and ground movement can misalign a pipe and create back-falls where water stands. Root cutting, jetting and a camera inspection give a clear picture of the condition of the network. Relining or a repair on the street side is prepared by asking the municipality about the procedure to follow.
- If you have large trees near the house, have the connecting pipe checked even if there is no visible blockage.
- In a condominium, have work on the common parts approved by the building manager before ordering it.

Frequently asked questions
How is a drain unblocked in Basel-Landschaft?
The specialist first locates the blockage, often with an inspection camera. They then choose a suitable technique, such as a drain rod or high-pressure jetting, and check that water flows freely again. Ask for a short report or images if the underlying cause needs further work.
What should I report if several drains back up together?
List every affected fixture and whether the problem changes when water is used elsewhere. Mention known inspection chambers and any products already used. Keep people away from contaminated water; avoid adding chemicals or dismantling shared pipework while waiting for assessment.
What should I compare in drain unblocking quotes?
Check whether inspection, unblocking, testing and a report are included. If damaged pipework or roots are found, ask for the evidence and a separate description of repairs; clearing a blockage and replacing a drain are different scopes.
How should I prepare for the drain unblocking visit or work?
Locate existing pipe plans or earlier inspection reports if available. Tell the specialist about cellar access and communal areas, and arrange permission with the property manager where necessary. Do not enter drains or inspection chambers yourself.
