Internal Drain Unblocking

Blocked toilet, sink, bath or shower? We clear internal drains and waste pipework quickly and cleanly, with a fixed price agreed before we start.

A blocked toilet, sink or bath is one of the most common drainage problems in any home or business, and usually one of the most disruptive. Inside a property, blockages typically build up from fat, oil and grease cooling and solidifying in kitchen pipework, or from hair, soap scum and so-called "flushable" wipes catching in bathroom waste pipes and toilet branches. On their own, these deposits narrow the pipe gradually until water can no longer pass freely.

Some minor clogs can be cleared with a plunger or hot water, but once a blockage affects more than one fixture, keeps returning, or brings sewage smells into the property, it usually points to something further down the system that needs proper equipment to clear. Our engineers carry drain rods, motorised mechanical clearance tools and jetting equipment suited to internal pipework, so we can identify the cause and clear it in a single visit.

What's Involved

Every internal call-out follows the same careful process, from first diagnosis through to a final flow test.

On-Site Diagnosis

We check which fixtures are affected to establish whether the blockage sits in an individual branch pipe or further along the main run.

Drain Rods & Mechanical Clearance

Manual rodding or a motorised drain snake is used first to break up and remove the blockage through the nearest access point.

Internal Jetting Where Needed

For grease build-up or a stubborn clog that rodding alone won't shift, we use jetting equipment calibrated for internal pipework.

Flow Test & Clean-Up

Before we leave, every affected fixture is tested to confirm it's flowing freely, and the work area is left clean and tidy.

Signs You Need Internal Drain Unblocking

These are the clearest signs a professional clearance is needed rather than a DIY fix.

  • Water draining slowly from a sink, bath or shower
  • Gurgling sounds from a drain or toilet when water runs elsewhere in the property
  • Water rising in a bath or shower tray when the toilet is flushed
  • A persistent smell of sewage gas from a drain or fixture
  • More than one fixture backing up at the same time
  • The same blockage returning within days of clearing it yourself

We carry out internal drain unblocking for homes, landlords and businesses across London, Essex, Hertfordshire, Surrey, Kent, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Suffolk.
