Metro Rod Aberdeen are experts when it comes to unblocking drains, so if you are faced with rising toilet water or it just wont flush then we are the ones to call.
Signs You Have A Blocked Drain
Some of the most common signs that you have a blocked drain will be:
-
- Your toilet not flushing properly and high water levels in the toilet bowl
- Bad, unpleasant odours coming from your drains
- Pooling water around the sink, shower, dishwasher etc
- Gargling sounds coming up from the drains, which is the sound of trapped air escaping with the flow of water
You can try and unblock drains at home yourself in a couple of ways
- Down the drain chemicals followed by boiling water to help flush the blockage out
- The home remedy of 1 cup of baking soda followed by 1 cup of vinegar, waiting 10 minutes before flushing it through with hot water
- Using a plunger to dislodge the blockage
Metro Rod Aberdeen have two main solutions that we use to unblock drains, high-pressure water jetting and electro-mechanical cleaning. After assessing the site we will choose the best option for you to ensure the blockage is fully removed.
High-pressure water jetting is the preferred method we use to unblock drains as it provides a long lasting solution. By spraying pressurised water directly at what is causing the blocked drain we are able to break up the material and then flush it through.
Electro-mechanical cleaning is the process of using a motorised tool with a rotating cable or spring inside, which the engineer feeds into the drain. The tool which rotates breaks up the mass blocking the drain so that it can be pushed through the pipe and drain.
You may benefit from one of these services if you find yourself frequently with a blocked drain that wont go away even after using the home remedies of baking soda and vinegar or drain unblockers. When people manage to unblock drains themselves we find that it usually only removes part of the blockage which makes it more likely to become blocked again as there is still material in the drains attracting more debris. So, for a long-term solution its good to have one of our engineers check it out for you - it will be beneficial in the long run.
