Drain Issues We Can Help With
We understand that blocked drains can cause significant disruption to your daily routine. That's why we offer emergency drain unblocking services, available 24/7 across London. Our team is ready to respond quickly, ensuring your drains are cleared with minimal downtime.
Toilet and Urinal Unblocking
A blocked toilet is one of the most inconvenient plumbing issues you can face. If your toilet isn’t flushing properly, it can quickly lead to unpleasant odours and potential overflow. Whether it’s a minor blockage or a more serious clog, we can swiftly unblock your toilet, ensuring it functions properly and restoring comfort to your home.
Baths and Showers
Blocked bath and shower drains are not only annoying but can also make daily routines difficult. If water is not draining away or the shower is backing up, it’s often caused by hair, soap scum, or grime build-up. Our team can clear these blockages and ensure water drains away smoothly, allowing you to enjoy your bath or shower without any hassle.
Sinks and Basins
A clogged sink can disrupt your kitchen or bathroom routine. Whether it’s a bathroom sink that’s slowly draining or a kitchen sink completely blocked, we can clear the blockage quickly and efficiently. From soap build-up to food debris, we have the tools to restore the proper drainage in no time.
Kitchen Sinks
The kitchen sink is prone to blockages due to grease, food scraps, and even small objects that can get stuck in the pipes. If your kitchen sink isn’t draining properly, our plumbers can identify the cause and clear the blockage, allowing your kitchen to be fully functional again without the risk of unpleasant odours or water backing up.
Internal Waste Pipes
Clogged internal waste pipes are often hidden and can lead to long-term issues if not addressed quickly. These pipes carry waste from your toilets, sinks, and showers, and any blockage can cause a mess. We can clear internal waste pipe blockages, restoring normal drainage and preventing potential damage to your property.
External Pipes and Drains
Blocked external drains can lead to flooding in your yard or driveway, causing damage and frustration. Whether it’s a blockage in your garden drain, patio drain, or any external pipe, we have the right tools, including jet washing and CCTV inspections, to clear and maintain your external drainage system, ensuring everything flows freely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the frequently asked questions we get regarding clearing blocked drains in London. If you require further information regarding our drain unblocking service, then please do not hesitate to get in touch.
What types of drains can you clear?
Our trained, professional drainage engineers can clear all types of blockages including blocked drains, blocked toilets, and pipe blockages.
What will your plumber do?
Our expert drainage engineer will isolate the blockage and get it cleared fast to get your plumbing system back to normal as quickly as possible.
Can you prevent blocked drain?
Limescale and other free-flowing stuff in your toilet reduce its efficiency and life span. This is particularly true for your tap aerators, shower heads, but is also valid for your toilet which can easily become clogged. You can avoid this frustrating issue by water softener installation done by a qualified plumber.
Will a clogged drain go away on its own?
Unlikely. Sometimes a slow drain might seem to improve for a bit, but most blockages just get worse as more gunk builds up. If you leave it, you’ll probably end up with a completely blocked pipe. It’s best to jump on it early – try a plunger or a drain snake, and if that doesn’t do the trick, it’s time to call in a plumber.
Who pays if drains are blocked?
Who pays for blocked drains depends on where the blockage is located. If the blockage is within the boundaries of your property and affects your private drains, you are responsible for the cost of repairs. However, if the blockage is in a shared drain or public sewer, your local water company is usually responsible for clearing it. Landlords are responsible for blocked drains in rented properties unless the tenant caused the blockage through misuse.
How long does it take a plumber to unblock a drain?
It truly depends on the blockage's spot and reason. A basic bathroom or kitchen drain could be completed in 30 minutes or less. A deeper or more severe blockage – especially if it’s outside or affecting multiple drains – could take a few hours. Most plumbers will sort it out in one visit.
How much does it cost to unblock a drain in London?
In London, the cost of unblocking a drain typically ranges from £75 to £250, depending on the type of blockage and the method used. Blockages, location of the drain (residential or commercial), and type of service (standard or emergency) affect price.
What is the cheapest way to unclog a drain?
The cheapest way to unclog a drain is to use a plunger, which costs very little and is effective for minor blockages. Alternatively, you can try pouring a mixture of bicarbonate of soda and vinegar, followed by hot water, to break down grease or debris. For slightly tougher clogs, a manual drain snake is an affordable option before considering professional plumber.
