Drainage System Construction, Maintenance and Repair in Tallinn

A properly working drainage system is the backbone of any building. Toru SOS offers a full range of drainage services — installation, repair, maintenance and emergency work, for both interior and exterior systems.
Drainage services
A drainage system is complex technology made up of many components — interior waste pipes, vertical stacks, exterior mains, traps, ventilation and connections to utility networks. Each part requires its own expertise and experience. Our specialists cover the whole spectrum.
- Installation and replacement of interior drainage in a flat
- Design and construction of a house's drainage system
- Vertical stack replacement in apartment blocks
- Exterior mains construction and repair
- Septic tank and soakaway system installation
- Video inspection of drainage
- Blockage removal and jetting
- Stormwater pipe installation
- Drainage system construction
- Emergency drainage repair
A house's drainage system
A house's drainage system usually consists of the interior part (pipes inside the house), the exterior main (from the house to the septic tank or city connection) and the wastewater treatment (septic tank, soakaway system or city connection). Each part needs to be correctly designed and installed for the system to run trouble-free for decades.
Toru SOS offers a complete service for house drainage — from design through to a turnkey solution. We work on both new builds and renovations of existing systems. We're experienced with a range of septic solutions (classic septic tanks, biological treatment plants, soakaway systems) and can select the best solution for your site's conditions.
Replacing vertical stacks in apartment blocks
The vertical drainage stacks in Soviet-era apartment blocks are usually cast iron and in many buildings are already in critical condition. Leaks, blockages and odours are everyday problems. Replacing the stacks is a bigger project affecting every flat stacked above one another, but it's an essential investment for keeping the building running.
Toru SOS has replaced stacks in many Tallinn apartment blocks. The job involves removing the old cast-iron pipe, fitting new (usually plastic) pipe, reconnecting all the flat-side fittings, and finishing touches. We deliver the whole job with a single team to minimise disruption to residents.
How does the process work?
Everything starts with your call or online enquiry. Our dispatcher listens to the problem, assesses how urgent it is, and sends the nearest available technician. In an emergency we head out immediately; for planned work we agree a time that suits you. The technician arrives with the equipment and spare parts needed to sort things out in a single visit wherever possible.
On site we run a first diagnosis, pin down the exact cause of the fault and propose the best solution. We agree the scope and price with you before starting, so you know exactly what you're paying for. Any extra materials or work are always confirmed separately before we proceed.
Once the job is finished we test the system, clean up after ourselves and issue a report. We give you practical advice on further care and, where useful, can offer a maintenance contract with regular preventive check-ups.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How long does it take to replace a flat's drainage?
One flat usually takes 1–2 days. Larger projects (a whole stack) take a week or more.
Can you build drainage for a new house?
Yes, we offer both design and turnkey construction. We can help you choose the right septic solution.
What's the difference between a septic tank and a biological treatment plant?
A septic tank is simpler and cheaper but needs regular emptying. A biological treatment plant cleans the water much better, but costs more and needs electricity.
Do you do video inspections of drainage?
Yes, it's a good way to identify problems without digging. Prices start from €125.
Do you install stormwater drainage too?
Yes, rainwater drainage from the roof and property is also part of our services.
