Blocked Drain Service – Quick Responses & Satisfaction Guaranteed
Having a blocked drain in your home or commercial property can be very stressful and cause several problems, from bad smells to flooding. It can be incredibly inconvenient for you, your family or employees too. In the workplace, drain blockages can also be costly if the premises has to shut due to not having working toilets. Booking drain clearance services is the quickest and easiest way to remove blockages, helping water flow freely again. A blocked toilet needs urgent attention to prevent further inconvenience and damage.
Unsuitable items flushed down the toilet? Food waste lodged in the sink? Or simply an old drain that needs replacing? Whatever the cause, a drain blockage needs sorting fast. We can identify the cause of the problem and prevent further damage to your drainage system. By getting blockages removed as soon as you notice something is wrong, you can avoid build-ups further back in the pipe which can be much harder to fix.
Drainage pipes are only designed to take waste water from kitchens, bathrooms and toilets along with pee, poo and toilet paper. Anything else can cause blockages that prevent water from flowing through the pipes. Using high pressure water jetting, our experienced team can dislodge anything stuck in your drainage system and effectively remove blockages.

Blocked Drains FAQ
How do I know if my drains are blocked?
Common symptoms of a blocked drain are sinks not draining away, toilets rising to the top when flushed and staying in that state or going down slowly, bad smells and gurgling sounds.
If you’re ever in doubt about drain blockages, it’s always beneficial to call a professional company like Origin Drainage and Plumbing.
Can blocked drains cause damp?
Yes, blocked drains are a common cause of damp in both houses and commercial properties. When the drain pipes are blocked, the waste sits in the pipes.
If there are any cracks, breaks or problem joints they can allow the waste to slowly leak out causing damp. Fixing drain blockages as quickly as possible can help you avoid costly problems with damp.
Are blocked drains covered by home insurance?
Home insurance can cover blocked drains but it would depend on your policy and the cause of the blockage. For example, if roots had come through the drain and caused the blockage you could be covered. However, every policy is different, so it’s best to double-check with your insurance provider.
Even if drain blockages aren’t covered, it’s still important to book professional services to deal with the problem effectively.
What is the biggest cause of blocked drains?
The most common cause of blocked drains is grease and fat being washed down the sink after cooking. Other causes can be using non-biodegradable items, such as wet wipes, and flushing them down the toilet. Root ingress or a build up of scale can also result in drain blockages, and it’s crucial to look out for the signs that there are problems with your drainage system.
