The warning signs of a blocked drain are an unpleasant odour (like sewage or rotten eggs) in your kitchen or bathroom, strange sounds (like a rattling or gurgling noise) coming from your pipes, and water taking longer than usual to drain.  

Drain blockages usually start out as a sticky base layer of fat (for example, butter, lard and oils used in food preparation). Hair and other debris such as food waste then cling to the sticky fat, and the blockage begins to grow. Flushing things down the toilet that shouldn’t be flushed is another common cause of blocked drains. As a guide, you shouldn’t flush items like sanitary products, wet wipes or dental floss down your toilet. 

A drain blockage will only continue to get worse if left untreated. Severe blockages can cause your drain to overflow and flood your home. To avoid unpleasant and expensive flooding, it’s important to tackle a blocked drain before it gets too serious. 

It’s a good idea to install drain protectors to catch and prevent hair and food waste from being washed down the drain. You should never pour fat down your kitchen sink or flush items like sanitary products and wipes. Keep an eye on little ones, in case they try to flush small toys or other items – this is a surprisingly common occurrence! 

How long the job takes is entirely dependent on the size and nature of the blockage. We will always work efficiently to diagnose the issue and strive to resolve it as quickly as possible.
