Your project in the canton of Jura
For work in the canton of Jura, identify the property by its municipality and postcode, whether in Delémont, Porrentruy, the Franches-Montagnes, Moutier or another municipality. Describe the part of the building concerned and its current condition. If the property includes both living rooms and former farm spaces, identify which areas belong to the project instead of assuming that all parts need the same work. Give vehicle access, any narrow passage or steps, and whether the building will remain occupied. For a conversion or an exterior alteration, clarify the project-specific requirements with the municipality or competent authority and provide any existing protection or approval documents.
- For a farmhouse in the Franches-Montagnes, specify which part (living quarters, barn, stable) is concerned.
- Mention your current heating system, as insulation matters a great deal given the Jura winters.
- In the old town of Porrentruy or Delémont, describe access from the street and the space available in front of the house.
Drain unblocking in the canton of Jura
In the Jura, many farms and village houses have been converted into homes, with pipes from different periods connected as best they could be. In Porrentruy, the old town has old buildings whose drains run beneath vaulted cellars. The limestone subsoil of the plateau encourages infiltration, and some isolated farms on the high plateau, near Saignelégier, still depend on a septic tank that needs emptying. The marked winter cold can freeze outdoor drains. In Delémont, it is mainly the stacks of apartment buildings that need cleaning. Farms also need their gutters cleared. Replacing a septic tank or changing a connection in the Jura requires consulting the municipality beforehand.
- In a converted farmhouse, ask for a plan of the network based on the camera inspection: it will be useful for future work.
- Have the septic tank emptied before it is full, especially if you are expecting guests or letting the property.

Frequently asked questions
How is a drain unblocked in Jura?
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.
