Blocked Drains Harrogate

Are you tired of dealing with a blocked shower drain in your North Yorkshire home? At Blocked Drains Harrogate, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that comes with a clogged drain. In this article, we'll provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to unblock a shower drain in North Yorkshire, as well as offer expert advice on how to prevent future problems.

Before we dive into the solution, it's essential to understand the cause of the problem. A blocked shower drain can be caused by a variety of factors, including hair, soap scum, and grease buildup. In some cases, the blockage may be further down the drain line, requiring professional assistance to clear.

To unblock a shower drain in North Yorkshire, follow these steps:

1. Use a plunger: A plunger is a simple and effective tool for clearing blockages in shower drains. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction.
2. Use a drain snake: A drain snake, also known as an auger, is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up blockages. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
3. Use baking soda and vinegar: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

If you're unable to clear the blockage using the above methods, it's time to call a professional drainage company like Blocked Drains Harrogate. Our team of experienced drain specialists will use advanced equipment, such as high-pressure water jetting and CCTV surveys, to identify and clear the blockage.

To prevent future problems with your shower drain, consider the following tips:

• Regularly clean your drain: Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they go down the drain.
• Use a drain maintenance product: There are many products available that can help break down grease and other substances that can cause blockages.
• Be mindful of what you put down the drain: Avoid putting grease, oil, and other substances down the drain that can cause blockages.

In North Yorkshire, the responsibility for clearing blocked drains depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is within your property boundary, it's your responsibility to clear it. However, if the blockage is further down the drain line, it may be the responsibility of your local sewer authority.
