Our Process

When you contact Drainage Cumbria, one of our skilled technicians will answer your call and guide you through an initial problem assessment. This assessment determines the nature of the problem and what's required to fix it.

Our team will then visit your property to assess the situation properly. We begin by locating the blockage using advanced camera inspection technology. This technology allows us to see the exact location and nature of the blockage, giving us the information we need to remove it.

Unblock the Sink

Depending on the cause of the blockage, we employ a range of tools and techniques. Our team is trained to handle all kinds of blockages, ensuring they can unblock your sink quickly and efficiently. We usually try to use the most appropriate method that will cause the least damage to the drain.

In most cases, we use one of two methods - plunging or drain snaking. The plunger is a straightforward method, involving a rubber cup that is pressed over the drain and then pushed up and down. Meanwhile, the drain snaking method involves the insertion of an auger or flexible cable into the drain, which turns to reach the clog and then draws it out.

Prevention

Prevention is better than cure, and keeping your sink in good working order can help avoid future blockages. Here are a few steps you can take to prevent blockages in your sink:

• Don't put food waste in the sink
• Use a sink strainer to catch food scraps, soap and hair
• Don't pour grease, cooking oils or paint down the sink
• Flush the sink with hot water after each use to wash away any lingering debris
