Blocked drains are a common issue for homeowners and businesses across Southampton, often causing unpleasant smells, overflowing water, and even structural damage if left untreated. At Southampton Drains24, we specialise in identifying the causes of drainage issues and providing fast, reliable solutions with no hidden fees.
Common Causes of Blocked Drains
- Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) Build-Up
Cooking fats and oils poured down sinks cool and harden inside pipes, creating sticky blockages that restrict water flow. - Foreign Objects
Wet wipes, nappies, sanitary products, and other items flushed down toilets can quickly cause stubborn blockages that require professional clearance. - Tree Root Intrusion
During dry weather, tree roots naturally seek out water sources – including underground drains. Over time, roots can break into pipes, causing cracks and severe blockages. - Collapsed or Damaged Pipes
Older drainage systems or those affected by ground movement can collapse, preventing water from draining properly. - Build-Up of Scale and Debris
Hard water areas like Southampton often see scale and mineral deposits line the inside of pipes, narrowing the flow path until drains become completely blocked.
