How to prevent blocked drains

Eager to avoid drainage issues with your Manchester property in the future? Fortunately, following just a few top tips can help you to reduce the frequency of drain blockages.

1. Regularly flush your plugholes

Minor drain blockages can often be cleared by simply flushing your plugholes. You can do this using extra strong liquid drain unblocking solutions as well as traditional tools, like plungers and drain snakes.

Regularly using these drain unblocking solutions can play an important role in preventing minor blockages from developing into more serious blockages that require professional support.

2. Be careful what you put down the drain

Whether you’re using the toilet, bath, shower, or kitchen sink, there are certain items that you should avoid letting get down into your drains. This includes everything from sanitary items and nappies to makeup wipes, cooking oil (grease and fat), and substantial leftover food residue.

Even if you have a garbage disposal in your sink, you should try to avoid using it as a rubbish bin. Food debris that is well-known for blocking drains includes potato peels, eggshells, and coffee grounds, so we recommend keeping these items far away from your sink.

3. Invest in drain protectors and tools

Suitable for using on your sinks, shower, and bath, drain protectors are small devices that are placed over the plughole to catch most of the debris that can build up in your drains. From hair to food, drain protectors act as a filter to help prevent more serious blockages in the future.

Other tools that can help you to keep your drains clear with regular use includes plumbing snakes, plungers, and liquid drain unblocking solutions.
