A sink, shower or bath that's slow to clear, or a stale smell creeping up out of a plughole, is usually the first hint that a drain is starting to block. It's worth acting on quickly, before things turn into a full-blown emergency drainage situation later on. Let a small build-up grow into a proper blockage and you could find your toilets, sinks, baths or showers out of use altogether, which drags unhygienic conditions, serious disruption, a foul smell and a real risk of water damage along with it.
For a fast response in Ashford, Broadstairs, Canterbury, Dover, Faversham, Folkestone, Herne Bay, Margate, Ramsgate, Thanet, Whitstable and the rest of Kent, contact BP Drains Ltd. With our DrainSafe-approved contractors on the job, you can relax knowing everything will be back to normal in no time.
BP Drains Ltd takes on blockages at homes, businesses and industrial sites alike. We bring a mix of tried-and-tested and modern tools, equipment and machinery to shift blockages of every kind and size, including CCTV drain surveys, manual rodding and high-pressure water jetting.
Rest assured, our team are certified CCTV surveyors and DrainSafe-approved contractors, and we're qualified in the safe, competent use of high-pressure drain jets for through-drain unblocking too.
Drains block for all sorts of reasons. Sometimes it comes back to everyday habits, like putting the wrong things down the drain, or household products that gather inside the pipes over the months and years.
Nature has a hand in it as well. Shifting ground and tree roots pushing their way in can damage pipework, and some systems simply wear out with age, which leaves them far more likely to crack or collapse.
The blocked drains we come across are most often down to:
You can't take the chance of a blockage away completely, but a few small changes to how things are done go a long way towards lowering the odds.
And if your Kent property does end up with a blocked system, BP Drains Ltd is here for you. Our emergency drainage work runs 24/7, and because our phones are always staffed, you'll never struggle to get hold of us.
Keeping an eye on how well your drains are running really does pay off. Catch a problem early and you can have the blockage cleared before it has any chance to grow.
Do that and you're not only shifting the blockage, you're sparing yourself the stress, cost and disruption that ride along with it. We put customers first, and the last thing we want is for you to land in an emergency. Below are some of the signs that most often point to a blocked drain:
As a blockage builds, it eats into the internal bore of the pipe. So if your water is already slow to drain, or you've spotted any other change in how the system behaves, the odds are there's a blockage there already.
