There are many reasons a drain might become blocked. The most common causes are excessive amounts of toilet paper, hygiene projects such as wet wipes, or even foreign objects such as keys and small toys being flushed down the toilet.
In the bathroom, hair and soap are the main culprits that end up getting washed down the plugholes. In the kitchen, food waste is the main cause of drain blockages. Oil, fats and even small food items like fruit pips can all contribute to a drain blockage.
Blocked drains should be taken care of as soon as possible, to avoid causing them causing an even bigger, more expensive problem. Because we know that a drainage emergency can happen at any time, we are available 24/7.

Drain guards are a useful preventative measure, as they catch hair and food waste to prevent it from being washed down the drain.
You might want to consider switching from traditional soap bars to an alternative like liquid handwash. This is because the grease and fat used to manufacture bars of soap can bind with the minerals in your water to leave behind a hard residue. When this residue builds up in your drains it can cause a blockage.
Fats, oils and greases solidify as they cool, which is why they should never be poured down your sink. They should always be placed into a suitable container and disposed of with the rest of your food waste. Food that’s left on your plate should never end up down the sink either.
Try to avoid flushing excessive amounts of toilet paper and never flush sanitary items like tampons or towels. Wet wipes do not flush well with some toilets. Keep an eye on small children, as they can very often be the culprit for flushing foreign objects such as toys!
Our on call drainage specialists are available 24/7, to help customers day or night. If your drain is blocked but otherwise undamaged, we can use a combination of drain rods and high-pressure water jetting systems to blast away blockages and remove fat, grease and oil.
This highly effective and affordable solution can tackle even the toughest of blockages quickly and efficiently. Get in touch with us on 0800 690 6777 to find out more.
If a drain has become damaged, worn or misaligned, it will need to be replaced as well as unblocked. This is something we can help with. Drain relining is both cost-effective and non-destructive, providing an excellent solution that avoids the need for digging up the area.
Drain relining is a process in which a pipe is created within a pipe. A liner impregnated with a special resin is inserted into the pipe and inflated. Once inflated, the liner is then heated using hot water or UV lighting causing the resin to adhere and set to the inside of the current pipe. The liner is then removed, leaving behind a brand-new resin pipe that will seal up any cracks, allow for water to flow correctly and keep out any pests.
In nearly all cases there is zero need for any excavating (unless the pipe has sharp bends, in which case some digging may be required). Overall, the process will save you time and money when compared to traditional techniques. It’s also an environmentally friendly solution, as it stops sewage from seeping out and causing harm to the surrounding area.
