Blocked Drains
What are the main causes of blocked drains ?
When it comes to blocked drains there are a lot of causes. Here are the main 5 issues:
- grease,
- sanitary items,
- tree roots,
- dislodgements and
- collapsed pipework
How to prevent them from happening?
Avoid pouring leftover cooking grease down the sink.
Be mindful of what sanitary items you can and can’t flush down your toilet, especially in recent years popular ‘flushable’ wipes.
