Signs your drain is blocked

If you're seeing any of these, don't leave it, a partial blockage usually turns into a full one fast.

Slow-draining sink, bath or toilet

Water sits and takes its time to drain away, or the toilet rises before it clears, a sign of a building blockage.

Gurgling sounds

Bubbling or gurgling from plugholes and the toilet when you run water, caused by trapped air behind a blockage.

Bad drain smell

A foul, sewer-like smell from a sink, shower or outside drain, usually trapped waste rotting in the pipe.

Water backing up or overflowing

Water rising back up the sink, shower or an outside drain, or an overflowing gully, the blockage needs clearing now.

While you wait for us

What to do right now

Three quick steps to limit the damage, then leave the rest to us.

1

Stop using the drain

Stop running taps, flushing or using the affected sink, bath or toilet so waste water can't back up further.

2

Go easy on chemicals

Shop drain cleaners often don't shift a real blockage and can splash back. Don't pour bottle after bottle in.

3

Keep water away from electrics

If water is overflowing, mop it up and keep it clear of sockets and anything electrical.

4

Call us

We'll talk you through it and get an engineer out to you, usually the same day across North & Inner London.

Sewage backing up into the property? Keep clear of the contaminated water, keep children and pets away, and call us straight away. We deal with it quickly and safely.
Why it's blocked

Common causes of a blocked drain

The good news: most blockages are cleared on the first visit, no digging up the garden.

Grease, fat and food waste

Fat and oil poured down the kitchen sink cool and set hard, trapping food waste and choking the pipe over time.

Wipes and sanitary items

"Flushable" wipes, sanitary products and kitchen roll don't break down like toilet paper and quickly jam the drain.

Limescale and hair build-up

Scale and soap in hard-water London pipes, plus hair in bathroom drains, slowly narrow the pipe until it blocks.

Tree roots or foreign objects

Roots work into cracked underground pipes, and dropped objects lodge in the drain. A CCTV survey finds the exact cause.

Most blockages clear with rodding or high-pressure jetting. If it's a recurring problem or a collapsed pipe, a CCTV drain survey shows exactly what's going on, and we'll explain it honestly.

Your questions

Blocked drain FAQs

How fast can you come out to a blocked drain?
Usually the same day, and often within the hour. We're on call 24/7, 365 days a year across North & Inner London, so a blocked drain doesn't have to wait until tomorrow. Call us and we'll give you a realistic time before we set off.
How much does it cost to unblock a drain?
It depends on where the blockage is and what's causing it, but you get a fixed price upfront before we start, with no call-out fee, so there are no surprises on the bill. Most everyday blockages are cleared on the first visit.
Do you use CCTV drain surveys?
Yes. For recurring blockages, slow drains that keep coming back, or where we suspect a damaged or collapsed pipe, we run a CCTV camera down the drain to see exactly what's happening. You get a clear picture of the cause before any further work, all at a price agreed in advance.
What causes blocked drains?
The usual culprits are grease, fat and food waste in kitchen drains, wipes and sanitary items in toilets, limescale, soap and hair build-up in bathrooms, and tree roots or dropped objects in outside drains. We clear the blockage and, where it keeps recurring, find the underlying cause with CCTV.
My drain keeps blocking, what can you do?
A drain that blocks again and again usually points to a bigger issue, scale build-up, a partial collapse, a fall in the pipe that's too shallow, or roots getting in. We clear it, run a CCTV survey to find the real cause, and explain your options honestly so it doesn't keep happening.
Do you clear inside and outside drains?
Both. Sinks, baths, showers and toilets inside, and gullies, manholes and underground drains outside. We clear them with rodding or high-pressure jetting depending on the blockage. If a drain is shared or the responsibility of the water company, we'll tell you that too.
Are you available out of hours and at weekends?
Yes. We're available 24/7, 365 days a year, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays. A real person answers, and we're rarely more than an hour away across North & Inner London.
