A blocked drain, sink or toilet is one of the most disruptive plumbing problems — and it rarely happens at a convenient time.

Common causes of blocked drains

Most blockages come from a build-up of grease, fat, hair and soap scum in the pipes, wipes and sanitary products flushed down toilets, or leaves and debris washed into outside drains. Sometimes the cause is deeper — a collapsed or root-damaged pipe — and we'll find that rather than just clearing the symptom.

Our unblocking process

We identify where the blockage is, clear it using the right method for the job — plunging, rodding or high-pressure water jetting — and then check the pipe is flowing freely. Where a blockage keeps returning, we can investigate the line to find the underlying cause.

Preventing blockages

Bin fat and food scraps rather than washing them down the sink, use a sink strainer, and only flush the three Ps — pee, poo and paper. A little care keeps most drains running freely and avoids repeat call-outs.

When a blockage is an emergency

If a drain is backing up and threatening to flood your home, or a toilet is completely blocked with no other facilities available, treat it as an emergency. We offer 24/7 call-outs for urgent blockages across Croydon, Bromley and South London.
