Clearing Blocked Waste Pipes

Slow or blocked sinks, baths and basins are usually caused by a build-up of hair, grease and soap in the waste pipe. We clear the blockage and get the water draining freely again. Dealing with it early stops the smell and the standing water that a full blockage causes.

More Information

Blocked Drains Outside

Blockages further along the drain can cause several fittings to back up at once, or water to pool outside. We locate the blockage and clear it, then check the drain is running properly. Clearing it promptly avoids the mess and smell of an overflowing drain.

Stopping Blockages Coming Back

Once the drain is clear, we look at what caused it, whether that is grease, hair or something washed down that should not have been. Knowing the cause means we can advise on how to keep it clear, so you are less likely to face the same blockage again soon.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my drain is blocked in Portishead?

Common signs are slow-draining sinks or baths, gurgling noises, bad smells, or water backing up when you flush or empty a basin. If several fittings are affected at once, the blockage is likely further along the drain. Call us and we will find it and clear it for your Portishead home.

Can you clear a blockage without digging up the drain?

Usually, yes. Most blockages are cleared using rods or drain machines through existing access points, with no digging needed. Only in rare cases, such as a collapsed pipe, is more work required. We start with the least disruptive method and explain if anything more is needed.

What causes drains to keep blocking?

Repeat blockages are often caused by grease, hair, wipes or leaves and roots getting into the pipe. Once we clear the drain we look at the likely cause, so we can advise on how to avoid it happening again. Small changes in what goes down the drain often make a big difference.
