We offer rapid-response rat removal when you need help urgently. Our team acts quickly to make your home safe and rat-free.

Service overview

Sonar tracing is a specialised technique used by ERAT to accurately locate underground drains, pipe routes, and hidden defects that may allow rats to access your property. Using advanced sonar and tracing equipment, our technicians can track the path of drainage pipes beneath the ground and identify breaks, misaligned connections, or unknown pipework. This technology allows us to pinpoint problem areas without unnecessary digging or disruption. By clearly mapping the drainage system, we can identify how rodents are travelling through the network and recommend the most effective repairs to stop rats entering your home.
