Blocked Drains York

As a homeowner or business owner in York, it's essential to prioritize drain maintenance to prevent costly repairs and ensure the smooth operation of your property's drainage system. At Blocked Drains York, we recommend regular drain cleaning to avoid common issues that can lead to more significant problems.

Clogged drains can cause a range of problems, from slow-draining sinks and toilets to more severe issues like sewage backups and property damage. In York, the city's older infrastructure can contribute to drain issues, making regular cleaning and maintenance crucial.

Cleaning your drains regularly can help prevent:

• Blocked drains and pipes
• Slow-draining sinks and toilets
• Sewage backups and overflows
• Property damage and costly repairs
• Unpleasant odors and health risks

The frequency of drain cleaning depends on various factors, including:

• Usage: If you have a large family or run a business, your drains may require more frequent cleaning.
• Age of the property: Older properties may require more frequent cleaning due to the age of the drainage system.
• Type of property: Commercial properties, such as restaurants and cafes, may require more frequent cleaning due to the high volume of waste.
  As a general rule, we recommend:
• Cleaning your drains every 6-12 months for residential properties
• Cleaning your drains every 3-6 months for commercial properties

At Blocked Drains York, we use various methods to clean drains, including:

• Drain jetting: Using high-pressure water jets to clear blockages
• CCTV surveying: Using cameras to inspect and diagnose drain problems
• Drain excavation: Digging up and repairing damaged or blocked drains

Gullies, also known as drain covers, can become clogged with debris and leaves, causing water to accumulate and leading to drainage problems. Regular gully cleaning and maintenance can help prevent these issues.

To prevent drain problems, we recommend:

• Being mindful of what you put down your drains
• Avoiding pouring grease and fat down your drains
• Using a drain screen or filter to catch hair and debris
• Regularly checking your drains for signs of blockages or damage
