What Are the Causes of Blocked Drains?

Blocked drains can cause significant inconvenience and potential health risks. Common signs of a blocked drain include foul smells, slow-draining water, gurgling sounds, and overflowing water. These issues can escalate quickly if not addressed, leading to property damage and increased repair costs. Blocked drains can result from a variety of causes. Understanding these can help in preventing future blockages:

Toiletries

Items like nappies, baby wipes, and sanitary products should not be flushed as they can cause blockages.

Foreign Objects

Toys and other items can accidentally be flushed down toilets, especially in households with children.

Soap

Solid soap bars can get lodged in pipes and cause blockages.

Hair

Hair combined with other substances can create blockages. 

Cooking Oil

Oil can solidify and combine with other debris to form blockages.

 

Food Scraps

Especially coffee grounds and fibrous foods, can clog drains.

 

Tree Roots

Roots can infiltrate pipes, causing blockages and damage.

Mineral Buildup

Minerals like calcium can clog pipes, leading to blockages.

 

How to Clear a Blocked Drain?

Clearing a blocked drain depends on the cause and severity of the blockage. Here are some effective methods:

Home Remedies
For minor blockages, these simple remedies can help clear your drains:

Natural Cleaners

  • Boiling Water: Dissolves grease and soap blockages. Pour boiling water down the drain, repeatedly if needed.
  • Hot Water and Dish Soap: Pour hot water and dish soap into clogged toilets to break down the clog.
  • Baking Soda and Vinegar: Combine baking soda and vinegar for a fizzing effect. Pour hot water, then the mixture, followed by more hot water after ten minutes.
  • Salt and Baking Soda: Pour a mix of salt and baking soda down the drain, let sit, then flush with boiling water.

Mechanical Tools

  • Plungers: Create a seal and use a vacuum effect to dislodge blockages, ideal for toilets and sinks.
  • DIY Drain Snake: Use a thin wire with a hook to pull out blockages, effective for hair clogs in showers.
  • Wire Hanger: Straighten a hanger to clear blockages, especially hair.

Other Methods

  • Dish Detergent: For greasy blockages, pour detergent down the drain followed by boiling water.
  • Wet and Dry Vacuum: Use the vacuum to pull clogs up through the pipe.
