Blocked Drains
Blocked Drains in Cornwall
Blocked drains have a sneaky way of showing up at the worst possible moment, usually when you’re midway through cooking, cleaning, or just trying to enjoy a quiet cuppa.
The good news…
Most drains will give you a few tell-tale warning signs before they become a full-on household drama.
The warning signs of a Blocked Drain...
Slow-Moving Water
If your sink, bath, or shower is draining slower than usual, it’s often an early sign that something is restricting the flow. Sometimes it’s soap scum. Sometimes it's hair. Occasionally it’s a mystery no one wants to investigate. Either way—don’t ignore it!
Gurgling Sounds
Hear a strange gurgling coming from your pipes? That’s your drainage system trying to tell you that air is trapped where it shouldn’t be. If your sink sounds like it’s trying to communicate with you… it probably is.
Unpleasant Smells
Drains shouldn’t smell like a swamp monster’s holiday home. If you’re getting unpleasant whiffs from your sinks, outdoor drains, or toilets, it may be a build-up of waste, grease, or other debris. Smells are one of the strongest indicators that something is brewing & not in a good way.
Rising Water in the Toilet
If flushing your toilet causes the water level to rise higher than usual or worse, too high, this is a major warning. Toilets don't joke about blockages, so don’t hesitate to call in the professionals!
External Drain Overflowing
Seeing water pooling around external drains during light rain or normal water usage, this is an indicator there's likely a blockage below ground. Early action can prevent flooding or damage to your property.
