Blocked drains are a nightmare, don't suffer call the experts

Drains are a fact of life, we need water to live and once we're finished with it we need somewhere for it to go. Many of the drainage systems we use today can trace their ancestry back to Roman times or earlier, and many of the core components of our sewerage system today were built when Victoria was on the throne.

For the average household, the drains are made of vitrified clay, run from the house to the mains drainage system and are safely ignored for years if not decades. During this time they are down there, doing their job, carrying waste water and rain water away from your home. Safely keeping your home from flooding.

What causes blocked drains?

But once in a while, something is going to happen that causes a problem. Unfortunately, while these problems can be a long time in the making, they are often as no quite spectacular when they finally erupt. And erupt is sometimes the word. Backed up drains can be quite nasty and need sorting quickly as waste water coming back out of the sinks can be a health hazard, especially to children. But there are also other significant issues to worry about, leaking pipes can lead to subsidence or contamination of the ground.
