Sewer well cleaning and pumpingin Tbilisi

The well in the yard is full or water stands in it — we pump it out and flush the pipe. We quote the price on the phone before we come.

We quote the price right on the phone, before the visit

When the well needs cleaning

Check in the yard — it decides whether you need pumping or a pipe flush.

  1. Water comes out of the well into the yardThe well is full: water doesn’t go any further.
  2. Water in the well stands above the pipesThe blockage is in the pipe after the well — water can’t go on.
  3. A smell in the yardStanding water and sediment in the well rot, and the smell comes through the lid.
  4. Everything in the house drains slowlySinks, bath and toilet are all slow: the pipe from the house has nowhere to drain.

If it’s in the street: water stands in a city manhole in the street — that is the GWP network, and they clean it themselves, free of charge.

When to call right away

Water from the well floods the yard or rises in the house through the drains — call right away. We quote the price on the phone before we come.

Until the technician arrives: don’t use water in the house — whatever you drain goes into the full well.

The price depends only on the work, not on your home. On site the price changes only by a line of this table, and only before work starts.

Included: inspecting the wells, flushing, checking that water drains.

Not included: repairing the well, digging and replacing the pipe — a separate job.

We need electricity and water on site — for the jetting machine.

Why the well and the pipe get blocked

The outside pipe and the well clog over years. Here is what we find most often.

  • Silt and sandSettle at the bottom of the well and in the pipe after it.
  • Kitchen greaseSets in layers in the cold outside pipe.
  • Roots in the jointsTrees in the yard grow into the pipe through the joints.
  • A full septic tank after the wellWater doesn’t go any further, and the well fills up.
  • A sagging pipeWater stands in the sag and sediment builds up.

Pumping or clearing — what you need

You can’t do this yourself, but you can tell the case by where the water stands.

  • Water stands in a through well — the pipe after it is blocked. Pumping helps for a day; the pipe needs flushing.
  • The septic tank or cesspit is full — there is no way out, it needs pumping.
  • Water in a city manhole in the street — call GWP, it’s free.

Not sure — describe it on the phone and we’ll tell you what is needed.

Frequently asked

How much does it cost to pump out a well?

Pumping is 30 ₾ per m³; the total depends on the volume. Flushing the pipe with hydro jetting is 50 ₾ per metre, over 100 m — 25 ₾ per metre. We give the total on the phone before we come.

What is the difference between a well and a septic tank?

Water passes through a well further on — into the city network or a septic tank; the well gives access to the pipe. A septic tank or cesspit is a holding tank: there is no way out, so it is pumped.

Whose is the manhole in the street?

City manholes in the street and the network behind them belong to GWP — they clean them themselves, free of charge. Ours are the wells and pipes on your plot, up to the city network.

How often should a septic tank be pumped?

It depends on the size of the tank and how many people live in the house. Describe it on the phone and we’ll advise.

How is flushing charged?

By the metre of pipe: 50 ₾ per metre, over 100 m — 25 ₾ per metre. We measure the length on site and give the total before starting. For example, a 15 m pipe is 750 ₾.
