Drainage Cumbria: Unblock Your Drain With Ease

If you live in Cumbria or the North West of England, you will know that drain blockages are a common occurrence. A blocked drain can cause serious issues, such as overflowing sewage into your home, which not only creates a discomforting smell, but can also pose a serious health risk.

At Drainage Cumbria, we understand how inconvenient and frustrating it can be to have a blocked drain. That's why we offer fast and efficient drain unblocking services throughout the Cumbria region. Our team of highly skilled professionals are available 24/7 to help you with your drainage needs.

The Importance of a Clear Drain

A blocked drain can cause significant damage to your home or business. The stagnant water can begin to smell, and can even cause health issues to those who are exposed. Additionally, the water can cause significant structural damage to your property if left unchecked.

To keep your drains clear, it's important to understand what causes blockages. The most common culprits are:

• Hair
• Grease
• Food waste
• Soap scum
• Mineral buildup

By taking preventative measures, such as avoiding pouring certain materials down the drain, you can help reduce the chances of experiencing a blockage. However, if you do experience a blockage, it's important to take action immediately to prevent further damage.

Signs of a Blocked Drain

It's important to know the signs of a blocked drain, so you can take action quickly. Some common signs of a blocked drain include:

• Water backing up in your sink, toilet, or bathtub
• A gurgling sound coming from your drain
• A foul smell coming from your drain
• Slow draining water

If you notice any of these signs, don't hesitate to contact Drainage Cumbria. We will send one of our skilled professionals to your property to diagnose and fix the problem.

How We Unblock Your Drain

At Drainage Cumbria, we use a variety of techniques to unblock your drain. The method we use is dependent on the severity of the blockage and the location of the blockage.

Some of the methods we use include:

• High-pressure jetting: This technique uses high-pressure water to push the blockage through the pipes.
• Drain rodding: This technique uses a flexible rod with a brush or hook on the end to push the blockage through the pipes.
• Chemical drain cleaners: We only use these as a last resort, as they can be harsh on your pipes and the environment.

Our team of skilled professionals will assess the situation and determine the best method to unblock your drain quickly and effectively.

What NOT to Pour Down Your Drain

Preventing blockages can save you time, money, and potential damage to your property. To help you keep your drains clear, it's important to know what NOT to pour down your sink or drain. Some common culprits to avoid include:

• Cooking grease or oil
• Coffee grounds
• Eggshells
• Fibrous materials (such as vegetable peels)
• Chemical drain cleaners

By following these simple preventative measures, you can help reduce the chance of experiencing a blocked drain.
