A blocked bath can be frustrating, and if left unattended, it can become a health hazard. A blocked bathtub prevents water from draining, making it difficult to bathe or shower. Standing water in your bathtub can also cause unpleasant odours and create breeding grounds for bacteria and a host of unwanted microorganisms. The appearance of foam, scum, or even mould around your bathtub can become increasingly distressing.

Blocked baths can be caused by a range of factors, from hair and soap scum to grease and foreign objects. Some blockages can be removed by using a plunger, but in most cases, it requires professional intervention. Attempting to remove the blockage by yourself can make the situation worse, leading to additional costs and extensive repairs.
