Internal Blockages

Internal blockages are often caused by a build-up of hair, soap, grease, food waste or other debris. Left to build up, they can restrict the flow and eventually stop the water from draining altogether.

Questions we get asked

Can a blockage affect my washing machine or dishwasher?
Yes. Appliances discharge into the property's waste system, so a blockage further along the pipework can prevent the water from draining properly and cause it to back up.
What could cause an internal blockage?
Wipes, hair, fat, food waste and other debris can build up inside waste pipes and gradually restrict the flow. The cause can vary depending on which outlet is affected.
