The purpose of this page is to introduce you to the main causes of blocked drains Reading so you can get some ideas of how to avoid future problems and what may be causing current issues.
One of the most common causes of blocked drains is bulky, large waste items being flushed down the loo. These bulky items include incontinence pads, sanitary towels, disposable nappies and much more.
Blocked drains can also be caused by grease, oil and fat going down our drains. The oil may be in liquid form as you pour it away, however, once it hits the cold temperatures beneath the ground it will harden and catch on any rough surfaces gradually building up into a blockage.
Another reason for blockages is tree roots, these can spread as the tree grows and when they grow into your drainage system can often result in collapsed, broken and blocked pipes.
