How we Tackle Drain Blockages
When it comes to clearing blockages, our approach combines advanced technology and expert techniques to tackle even the toughest clogs. We start by conducting a thorough inspection using specialised tools, such as drain cameras, to accurately identify the source and extent of the blockage.
Once pinpointed, we employ methods like high-pressure water jetting or professional drain snakes to dislodge and remove the obstruction. For persistent or complex issues, we may also perform detailed pipe cleaning or repairs. Our goal is to restore your drainage system to full functionality while ensuring minimal disruption to your home.
Drain Blockages Around your Home
Blockages in sinks, toilets, and showers can disrupt daily routines and lead to significant plumbing issues if not addressed promptly. In sinks, blockages are often caused by accumulated grease, food debris, or foreign objects, which can be cleared using specialised tools and techniques like high-pressure water jetting or drain snakes.
Toilets can become clogged due to excessive paper use, non-flushable items, or other obstructions, requiring careful attention to avoid overflows and damage.
Showers are commonly affected by hair and soap scum build-up, which can be effectively managed with advanced cleaning methods and pipe inspection. Our team ensures that each type of blockage is handled with precision, restoring proper function and preventing future issues.

Drain Blockage FAQs
What are the common causes of drain blockages?
Drain blockages can be caused by a variety of factors including grease and oil buildup, hair clogs, foreign objects, soap scum, and food debris. In toilets, non-flushable items like wipes or sanitary products can also lead to blockages.
How can I prevent drain blockages from occurring?
To prevent blockages, avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain, use drain guards to catch hair and debris, and ensure that only toilet paper is flushed. Regularly clean drains and consider using enzyme-based cleaners to break down build-ups.
How can I tell if I have a blockage in my drain?
Signs of a blockage include slow draining water, unpleasant odors, gurgling sounds from the drain, and water backing up in sinks, showers, or toilets. If you notice these issues, it’s likely you have a blockage that needs addressing.
What should I do if my drain is blocked?
If you experience a blockage, first try using a plunger or a drain snake to clear the obstruction. If these methods don’t work or if the blockage recurs, contact a professional plumber who can perform a thorough inspection and use advanced tools to resolve the issue.
Are professional drain clearing services necessary for minor blockages?
While minor blockages can sometimes be cleared with home remedies, professional services are recommended for persistent or severe blockages. Plumbers have specialized tools and expertise to address complex issues and ensure your drainage system is fully restored and functioning properly.
