How We Work
Common Signs of a Blocked Drain
Not sure if you’ve got a blocked drain? Here are the most frequent warning signs to look out for:
🚫 Unpleasant Odours
If you notice foul smells coming from your sink, bath, or toilet, it’s often caused by food waste, grease, or sewage building up inside your pipes. The smell usually gets stronger over time and won’t go away with normal cleaning.
💧 Slow-Draining Water
Water that lingers in your sink, bath, or shower before draining away is a clear sign that something is obstructing the pipe. Even a partial blockage can quickly turn into a complete one if left untreated.
🔊 Gurgling or Bubbling Noises
Strange gurgling sounds from your plugholes or toilet usually mean trapped air is struggling to escape past a blockage. It’s a tell-tale sign that water flow is being restricted inside the drain.
⚠️ Water Backing Up
If water starts rising back into your sink, toilet, or shower when you try to drain it away, you likely have a serious blockage. This can be messy, unsanitary, and should be dealt with immediately to prevent flooding or damage.
👉 Why it matters:
Blocked drains don’t fix themselves – they only get worse. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to overflows, pipe damage, unpleasant odours, and costly repairs. Acting quickly means we can clear the blockage fast, often with a simple solution before it escalates.
