What Causes a Blocked Sink?
Blocked sinks are typically caused by a gradual build-up of materials within the drainage system, particularly in kitchen environments.
Common causes include:
​
-
Grease and fat build-up within pipes
-
Food waste and debris
-
Soap residue and general build-up
-
Foreign objects entering the drain
-
Blockages further along the drainage system
​
Over time, these materials restrict water flow and can lead to complete blockages.

How We Clear Blocked Sinks
Our engineers use a range of professional methods to safely and effectively clear blocked toilets.

High-Pressure Water Jetting
In many cases, clearing the sink alone is not enough, and the blockage may be located further along the drainage line, with high pressure water jetting required to clear.

Electro-Mechanical Drain Cleaning
For tough blockages, specialist mechanical equipment can be used to break through heavy obstructions inside the pipework.

Removal of Debris and Obstructions
Where obstructions and debris have accumulated inside the pipes, our crews are equipped with specialist equipment to remove these.

When a Blocked Sink Indicates a Bigger Problem
Persistent sink blockages may indicate a wider issue within the drainage system.
​
This could include:
-
Blockages within the main drainage line
-
Build-up deeper within the pipework
-
Damaged or misaligned pipes
-
Root ingress affecting flow
Where necessary, we can provide recommendations for drainage repairs to address the underlying cause.
​
CCTV Drain Surveys for Blocked Sinks
​
If the cause of the blockage is unclear or the issue keeps returning, a CCTV drain survey can be used to inspect the internal condition of the drainage system.
