Who we work with

Supporting homeowners, pest professionals and property teams

We work with homeowners, pest control companies and property professionals to identify rodent ingress through drainage systems and provide clear, practical solutions to resolve the problem.

  • Homeowners

    Helping identify how rats are entering your property and providing clear, practical answers when the true source of the problem is not obvious.

  • Pest control professionals

    Working alongside pest control companies to investigate suspected drainage issues and support accurate diagnosis of rodent ingress where the source remains unclear.

  • Property teams

    Supporting landlords, managing agents and commercial property teams with clear, structured investigations across residential, commercial and multi-unit buildings.

Homeowners

If you are dealing with a rodent problem at home, identifying how rats are getting in is the first step to resolving it properly. In many cases, the drainage system is suspected but not fully investigated.

DRAINRAT carries out targeted drainage inspections to determine whether rodent ingress is occurring and, if so, exactly where access is being gained. This provides clarity where previous efforts may not have delivered clear answers.

We understand that these issues can be stressful and often ongoing. Our aim is to give you a straightforward diagnosis and a clear explanation of what is happening, so you can take the right next steps with confidence.

Pest control companies

We work alongside pest control professionals to investigate suspected drainage-related rodent ingress where the source of the problem has not been clearly identified.

In many cases, pest control teams have a strong indication that drainage may be involved, but require a focused inspection to confirm and locate the exact access point. This is where DRAINRAT provides support.

Our role is to complement the work already carried out, providing clear findings and practical recommendations that help move the job forward. We focus on accurate diagnosis, allowing pest control professionals to resolve the issue effectively for their clients.

Landlords and letting agents

Rodent issues within rental properties can be difficult to manage, particularly where the source of the problem is unclear or ongoing.

DRAINRAT supports landlords and letting agents by carrying out targeted drainage investigations to determine whether rodent ingress is occurring and identify the point of access. This helps avoid repeated call-outs without resolution.

We provide clear reporting and practical recommendations, allowing you to take the appropriate action quickly and with confidence. Our aim is to help resolve the issue efficiently while minimising disruption for tenants and ongoing management concerns.

Housing providers

For housing providers managing multiple properties, rodent issues can present ongoing challenges, particularly where drainage systems are shared or complex.

DRAINRAT carries out structured investigations across housing stock to identify rodent ingress and assess whether drainage systems are contributing to the problem. We understand the need for clear, consistent reporting across multiple properties.

Our approach helps housing providers gain a better understanding of recurring issues and identify practical solutions. By providing accurate diagnosis and clear recommendations, we support more effective long-term management of drainage-related rodent problems.

Commercial property teams

Rodent issues within commercial properties can affect operations, compliance and reputation, particularly where the source of the problem is not clearly identified.

DRAINRAT supports commercial property teams by carrying out targeted drainage investigations to determine whether rodent ingress is occurring and where access is being gained.

We provide clear findings and practical recommendations, allowing property teams to take appropriate action with minimal disruption. Whether working within offices, retail or mixed-use buildings, our focus is on delivering a reliable diagnosis and a clear route to resolution.

Local authorities

Local authorities are often responsible for managing rodent issues across a wide range of property types, where drainage systems may play a role in ongoing problems.

DRAINRAT provides targeted investigations to identify rodent ingress within drainage systems, supporting more accurate diagnosis across public sector properties and housing stock.

We deliver clear reporting and practical recommendations, helping local authorities understand the root cause of issues and take appropriate action. Our aim is to support a structured, efficient approach to resolving drainage-related rodent problems.
