Common Causes of Blocked Drains

🍳

Grease & Fat

The most common cause of blocked kitchen drains. Never pour fat down the sink — it solidifies and restricts flow.

🚿

Hair & Soap

Hair and soap scum combine to block shower and bath drains. Regular cleaning prevents build-up.

🌿

Tree Roots

Tree roots can infiltrate older clay pipes, especially common in Bristol’s Victorian and Edwardian properties.

🗑

Foreign Objects

Wipes, sanitary products, cotton buds — these should never be flushed. We remove blockages safely.

💧

Mineral Scale

Bristol has moderately hard water. Scale builds up in pipes over time and reduces flow.

🚧

Collapsed Pipes

Older properties may have collapsed or offset pipe joints. We can diagnose with CCTV drain survey.

Blocked Drains Bristol FAQ

Yes — we unblock outdoor gully drains, manhole covers and shared drainage systems. We can also advise on whether a blockage falls within Wessex Water’s responsibility.
What causes a blocked toilet in Bristol?
The most common causes are flushing wipes, too much toilet paper, or a build-up of mineral scale. We unblock toilets same day across Bristol.
