Drain Unblocking in South Wales

Warning signs of a blockage include water draining slowly, toilets struggling to flush, gurgling pipework, unpleasant smells and outside drains beginning to overflow.
Rods Away clears blocked toilets, sinks, baths, showers, waste pipes, external drains and gullies. Help is also available for recurring blockages and wastewater backing up inside or outside a property.
Common causes include grease, food waste, hair, soap, wipes, sanitary products, leaves, mud and silt. Clearing a blockage early can help prevent further mess, smells and disruption.

Blocked Toilets, Sinks and Showers

Many drainage problems begin inside the property. A toilet may stop flushing properly, a kitchen sink may take too long to empty, or water may collect in a bath or shower.
If several drains are affected at once, the blockage could be further along the shared pipework rather than at a single plughole. Rods Away can investigate the symptoms and use a suitable method to clear the obstruction.

Outside Drains and Gullies

Outside drains can become blocked by leaves, mud, silt, grease and other debris. This can cause water to collect around driveways, paths, patios, gardens, entrances and commercial premises.
Rods Away clears blocked yard drains, driveway channels, gullies and other external drains. If an outside drain is overflowing with wastewater, avoid contact and keep children and pets away while you arrange assistance.

Drain Rodding, Jetting and CCTV Surveys

The best clearance method depends on the location and cause of the blockage.
Drain rods may be suitable for a straightforward obstruction. High-pressure water jetting can remove stubborn grease, sludge, silt and debris, while a CCTV drain survey can help investigate recurring blockages or possible pipe damage.
Jonie will assess the problem and recommend the most appropriate method.
