Fixing the cause

Plenty of blockages come back because the real problem is the pipework – a waste with too little fall, a sharp bend, an undersized pipe, or a trap that collects everything. Once it's clear we'll look at why it blocked and, if it's likely to happen again, tell you what would stop it.

When it's the drain outside

If every sink and toilet in the house is slow, or the outside manhole is full, the blockage is likely in the underground drain. Shared drains serving more than one property are usually Severn Trent's responsibility, and they'll clear them free of charge. We'll help you work out whose drain it is before you pay anyone to jet it.

Please don't use caustic drain cleaner on a full sink

If the water isn't going anywhere, chemical drain cleaners sit in the trap and can burn skin and damage plastic wastes – and they're dangerous for whoever has to open the pipe afterwards. Call us instead.
