Need a Local Drain Unblocker?

Drain problems can quickly become stressful, especially when wastewater is backing up, an outside drain is overflowing or a toilet will not clear properly.

Rods Away can help if you are dealing with:

• A blocked outside drain
• A toilet that will not flush properly
• Water rising in the toilet bowl
• A blocked kitchen or bathroom sink
• A bath or shower draining slowly
• Bad smells from drains or gullies
• Gurgling sounds from plugholes
• Water backing up into sinks, baths, showers or toilets
• An overflowing gully or manhole
• Grease, sludge, wipes or debris causing a blockage
• A drain that keeps blocking again

If you are unsure what is causing the problem, call Jonie on 01495 687667 and explain what is happening. You do not need to diagnose the blockage yourself.

What to Do If Your Drain Is Blocked

If you have a blocked drain, avoid pouring harsh chemical drain cleaners into the system. These products often fail to clear deeper blockages and can make the work more hazardous.

If it is safe to do so:

• Stop using the affected sink, toilet, bath or shower
• Avoid flushing the toilet repeatedly if the water is rising
• Keep children and pets away from overflowing drains
• Check whether other fixtures are draining slowly
• Look outside to see whether a gully or manhole is overflowing
• Call Rods Away on 01495 687667 for advice

The more information you can give, the easier it is to understand whether the blockage is likely to be close to one fixture or further along the drainage system.

Drain Unblocking Services from Rods Away

Rods Away clears a wide range of domestic and commercial drainage problems.

Blocked Outside Drains

Outside drains and gullies can become blocked with leaves, silt, mud, grease, wipes, waste and general debris. If water is standing in the gully or overflowing around the drain, the blockage may need clearing from the outside drainage system.

Blocked Toilets

A blocked toilet may be caused by excess toilet paper, wipes, sanitary products, objects dropped into the pan or a blockage further along the waste pipe. If the water rises when flushed, stop flushing and call for help.

Blocked Sinks

Kitchen sinks often block because of grease, fat, food waste, soap residue and sludge. Bathroom sinks can block with hair, soap and general build-up. If plunging has not cleared the problem, the blockage may be further along the waste pipe.

Blocked Baths and Showers

Baths and showers can drain slowly when hair, soap, scale and debris build up in the waste pipe. Rods Away can help clear the restriction and get the water draining properly again.

Overflowing Gullies and Manholes

An overflowing gully or manhole can suggest a blockage further along the drainage run. This may need rodding or high-pressure water jetting depending on the location and severity of the blockage.

Recurring Drain Blockages

If the same drain keeps blocking, there may be an underlying issue such as heavy build-up, a restriction in the pipe, root ingress, damaged pipework or repeated unsuitable material entering the drain. Rods Away can help assess the symptoms and advise on the most practical next step.

How Rods Away Clears Blocked Drains

Every blockage is different, so Jonie will choose the most suitable approach based on the symptoms, access and type of drain involved.

Drain Rodding

Drain rodding is a tried-and-tested method for clearing many common blockages in outdoor drains, gullies and accessible pipework. It can be effective where the blockage is reachable and caused by debris, waste or general build-up.

High-Pressure Water Jetting

High-pressure water jetting may be used for tougher or deeper blockages. It can help clear grease, sludge, silt, debris and other material from inside the drainage system more thoroughly than basic clearing methods.

Advice After the Blockage Is Cleared

Once the drain is flowing again, Jonie can explain what may have caused the blockage and what can be done to reduce the risk of it returning. In many cases, avoiding wipes, reducing grease going down the sink and keeping outside gullies clear can help prevent repeat problems.
