Drainage Problems – What To Look Out For

Drainage issues can lead to significant problems if not addressed promptly. Recognizing the signs of potential problems early on can help you avoid more extensive and costly repairs. Here are some common signs that indicate drainage problems:

  1. Bad Odours: Foul smells emanating from drains or plugholes may signal a blockage. Ignoring such odours can lead to more challenging issues over time.
  2. Strange Noises: Unusual gurgling or bubbling noises from plugholes or toilets can indicate problems within the drainage system. It’s essential to investigate these sounds to identify potential issues.
  3. Slow Draining: If wastewater from sinks, showers, or baths drains slowly, it may indicate a developing blockage. Addressing the problem early can prevent more severe obstructions.
  4. Fluctuating Toilet Water Levels: If the water level in the toilet rises higher than normal, or if there’s overflow before draining away, it could indicate a damaged or blocked pipe. Prompt attention is necessary to prevent further complications.

Fats, Oils and Grease

Blocked drains in domestic, industrial, and commercial premises are often caused by fats, oils, and greases (FOGs).

Fat, oil and grease can often end up being washed down your kitchen sink.  This can cause major problems once they have hardened, causing pollutions and blockages in your pipework.  Over time, they harden to a concrete-like material and restrict the flow of wastewater in the pipes.

These blockages can cause wastewater to back-up through toilets and sinks into homes and businesses – or escape through manholes into streets and rivers.
