Blocked Drains Harrogate

At Blocked Drains Harrogate, we often receive calls from homeowners and businesses in North Yorkshire who are struggling with clogged drains. One of the most effective methods we use to unblock drains is caustic soda. But how does it work?

Caustic soda, also known as sodium hydroxide, is a strong chemical compound that is commonly used for unblocking drains. It is a highly alkaline substance that can dissolve grease, fat, and other organic matter that can cause blockages in drains.

When caustic soda is poured down a blocked drain, it reacts with the water to produce heat. This heat helps to break down the blockage, allowing the caustic soda to penetrate and dissolve the grease and fat that is causing the blockage. The caustic soda also helps to break down any other organic matter that may be contributing to the blockage, such as hair and soap scum.

To use caustic soda to unblock a drain, it is typically poured down the drain in a concentrated form. The caustic soda is then left to sit in the drain for a period of time, allowing it to work its way through the blockage. After the caustic soda has had time to work, hot water is poured down the drain to rinse away the blockage and any remaining caustic soda.

At Blocked Drains Harrogate, our team of drainage experts are trained in the safe and effective use of caustic soda to unblock drains. We use caustic soda to unblock drains in homes and businesses throughout North Yorkshire, including Harrogate, Killinghall, Scotton, Knaresborough, and Calcutt.
