Porreres is an inland municipality with no coastline, a town of stone houses and a municipality of open countryside: almond and apricot trees, vineyards and lanes leading to fincas and country houses. It borders Campos, so we know it well.
Blocked drains in Porreres
In the town of Porreres most homes are village houses, many of them with decades of history. Old pipes, inner courtyards and inspection chambers that sometimes ended up under a renovation: that's where the most typical kitchen, soil stack and inspection chamber blockages appear.
We clear sinks, toilets, soil stacks and sewer pipes with our jetting truck, in homes and in the town's shops, bars and restaurants. If the inspection chamber can't be found, we'll locate it before breaking up the floor.

Septic tank emptying in Porreres
Outside the town centre, Porreres is countryside. Most of the country houses, fincas and renovated properties in the municipality aren't connected to the mains sewer and rely on a septic tank or cesspit. Many are old masonry tanks that haven't been emptied for years.
When a tank hasn't been emptied for a long time, the sludge compacts and is harder to remove. We do it with our tanker and high-pressure water, and the waste goes to an authorised treatment plant. If you've just bought a country house and don't know when the septic tank was last emptied, the sensible thing is to empty it and see what condition it's in.
We explain how often it should be emptied in our article on how often to empty a septic tank (in Spanish), and on our septic tank emptying page.
Parts of Porreres we cover
- Porreres (town)
- Around the Montisión sanctuary
- Fincas and country houses across the municipality
- Country lanes towards Campos, Felanitx, Llucmajor and Montuïri
Porreres has no coastal developments or large separate villages: the work is in the town and, above all, spread across the countryside. At fincas, tell us what the track and entrance are like, because many old gates are narrow.
Service for hotels and restaurants in Porreres
Porreres has no beach hotels, but it does have agroturismos, rural hotels, wineries and restaurants that are very busy in season and almost always rely on their own septic tank or treatment plant. For them we provide scheduled emptying before and during the season, grease trap cleaning and emergency drain clearance, with invoices to your business.
