hOW DO I KNOW IF I NEED DRAIN UNBLOCKING?

If you’re noticing water draining slowly from your sink, shower, or bathtub, it could be a sign that a clog is starting to form. When water doesn’t flow as quickly as it should, it’s usually one of the first things homeowners spot, and it can be pretty frustrating, especially when you’re in a rush. Another thing to watch out for is any unpleasant smells coming from your drains. If you start to notice a musty or rotten odor near sinks or toilets, it could mean there’s a blockage in the pipes, causing organic matter to build up and decompose. These smells might seem harmless at first, but they can lead to bigger issues, and even health concerns, if ignored. In addition, keep an ear out for strange gurgling or bubbling noises when water drains. This usually happens when air is trapped in your pipes, trying to escape through a blockage. If you hear this, it’s a good indicator that your plumbing needs some attention before the problem gets worse. Catching these signs early can save you from more costly repairs down the road.

Have you noticed any of the aforementioned signs of a blocked drain? It is best to get an expert drain specialist to assess the situation as soon as possible. Our engineers are available 24/7 to help. Still not sure it’s a blocked drain issue? Call us today for free advise our experienced drainage managers are happy to help.

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF BLOCKED DRAINS AND DRAINAGE SYSTEMS?

Blocked drains can be a real headache, causing slow drainage, foul odors, and even potential damage to your property if left unresolved. Within homes, one of the biggest culprits is hair, which easily washes down bathroom sinks, showers, and tubs, tangling with soap scum and forming stubborn clogs. In kitchens, grease, fats, and oil are a major cause of drainage issues. When poured down the sink, these substances solidify inside the pipes, gradually restricting water flow and leading to blockages. Food waste is another common problem, especially when starchy foods like rice and pasta or fibrous vegetables get stuck in the pipes, absorbing water and expanding.

Soap scum can also build up over time, especially in homes with hard water, where minerals combine with soap and create a thick residue inside pipes. Foreign objects like wet wipes, cotton buds, sanitary products, and even small toys accidentally flushed down the toilet can quickly cause serious drainage issues. Unlike toilet paper, many of these items do not break down in water and can get stuck in narrow pipework.

Outside drains are not immune to problems either. Tree roots are a major cause of blockages in underground drainage systems, as they grow into small cracks in pipes, expanding over time and causing serious damage. Leaves, dirt, and other debris can also clog external drains, particularly during autumn, leading to flooding and water pooling around properties. Hard water areas often suffer from mineral build-up inside pipes, which can gradually reduce water flow and create stubborn blockages.

Frequently Asked Questions on Drain Unblocking

Drain unblocking cost in the UK can vary depending on a few things, like how severe the blockage is, the method used to clear it, and which company you choose. Some companies have set prices for standard blockages, while others may give you a quote after they’ve assessed the situation. At Clanville Drain Tech, we offer a fixed rate for our drain unblocking service and can typically unblock your drains within the hour. For instance, a simple unblock can cost anywhere less than £100 . However, in the case of a more complex blockage where a CCTV drain survey or inspection maybe required, it would cost more. Got a blocked drain emergency? Don’t hesitate to give our team a call at 01264 710543. We’re here to help!

Most blocked drains won’t clear up on their own. Over time, things like hair, grease, and waste build up, eventually leading to a full blockage. If you leave it unchecked, you might end up with more serious problems, like leaks, foul odors, or even damage to your pipes. It’s always best to tackle the issue sooner rather than later. If you can’t clear the blockage yourself, we are here to help!

When it comes to severe blockages, professional help is often the best option. In our experience, DIY methods do not do the trick for stubborn blockage. 

  • High-Pressure Water: Some drain companies or plumbers use high powered pressure washer with a drain attachment to clear out clogs.

  • Professional Drain Jetting: For tougher blockages, high-pressure jetting is a powerful tool that removes grease build-up and stubborn clogs effectively.

  • CCTV Drain Survey: If the blockage doesn’t budge, a camera inspection can pinpoint exactly what’s causing the issue. 

If you’re facing an emergency, give Clanville Drain Tech a call at 01264 710543. We’re available 24/7 for all your drain unblocking and advanced jetting needs. We have high-tech CCTV cameras and high-powered jetting equipment and jet vac tankers to dislodge any kind of blockage.

Yes, you can fix minor drain blockages yourself with a few simple DIY methods:

  • Plunge the Drain: Grab a plunger and use it to create suction that can help dislodge the blockage.

  • Pour Boiling Water: This works especially well for kitchen sinks, as it can break down grease and fat build-up.

  • Try a Drain Snake: A drain snake or auger can help you manually remove debris that’s causing the blockage.

  • Use Baking Soda and Vinegar: Pour a mix of baking soda and vinegar down the drain, followed by hot water, to dissolve any grime or buildup.

However, if these methods don’t work, it could be a more complex clog or one that’s deeper in the system. In that case, it’s best to leave it to the professionals. If you’re in need, you can call Clanville Drain Tech anytime at 01264 710543. Our team is available 24/7 to handle your drainage issues quickly and safely.

The short answer? It depends on your insurance policy. Some home insurance plans cover drainage issues caused by accidental damage or structural faults, but if the blockage is due to lack of maintenance, grease build-up, or tree roots, it might not be included. If you’re not sure what’s covered, it’s always best to check with your provider.

Leaving a clogged drain for too long can lead to bigger headaches down the line. What starts as slow drainage can quickly turn into standing water, foul smells, and even leaks. As the blockage builds up, pressure increases in the pipes, which can cause cracks or bursts—leading to costly repairs. In some cases, backed-up water can create mold and bacteria growth, making it a potential health hazard. The longer you wait, the worse it gets, so it’s always best to deal with the problem as soon as possible. If you’re struggling with a stubborn blockage, give Clanville Drain Tech a call—we’re here to help!

Who’s responsible for a blocked drain depends on where the blockage is. If it’s within your property boundaries—like in your sinks, toilets, or private drain pipes—it’s usually your responsibility to clear it. However, if the blockage is in a shared or public drain, it falls under the responsibility of the local water company or authority. If you’re unsure, checking with your water provider can help also, feel free to call our office for free advise.
