One of the key problems which occurs from blocked drains is the health risk posed by flooding. Most of the water which is sent down drains can be most politely described as 'dirty'. In addition to this, any water sitting in a blocked drain becomes the perfect environment for all sorts of nasty bacteria to thrive. This is where the revolting smell comes from and can be incredibly detrimental to your health. Obviously the worst case is when the blocked is in the soil pipe from the toilet drain, as this will contain fermenting waste, chock full of bacteria.
If your drains become blocked it is important to deal with the problem promptly. Otherwise you risk both damage to your property and a wide variety of health risks.

Unless you know what you are doing it is best not to attempt to clear any blockage yourself or you could cause worse damage. Chemical cleaners can damage plastic pipes and pollute the environment.
