If you’re dealing with blocked drains in your bath, London Drains Direct is ready to help.

Why is my bath blocked?
The blocked bathroom can be caused by a wide range of factors. All bathroom drains can become blocked, no matter the age of the connections or size of the pipes. Obstruction in the pipework is what usually causes a blocked bath. Somewhere deep down in the drainage system, there is always an obstacle that is not letting water go freely as it should.
Your drains are the most important access points which usually connects the plumbing system together. The first thing that comes to mind when experiencing a blocked bath is to identify if the problem is caused by one pipe or the whole drainage system.
The number one reason for a blocked bath is excessive hair in the drain pipes. Although it seems like hair could not pose a problem, it has the tendency to curl up together and block the path of water. At first, you may not notice, but after a while, you may be standing in a lot of dirty water as the drainage system becomes fully blocked. If this happens, it’s advisable to seek professional help to avoid unnecessary delays or rising bath drain services cost due to worsening issues.
Most common bath blockage causes:
- Hair – Please remove any hair you see going down the drainage system, it can become a nuisance later on and fully block the water path.
- Soap – While soap itself is not a problem, some people use thick soap brands which have the tendency not to dissolve fully in the water before going down the pipe.
- Unnatural oils – It is fine to use natural products for your good bathing experience, but do not “overdose” on brands that contain too much unnatural oil. This will make it easy for the hair to gather and cause a big bowl of unwanted substance in your bath drain.
- Sometimes a blockage can occur in more than one area. Since all your plumbing is well connected, the blocked water can often have a hard time circulating. As a result, you might experience several blocked areas because of just one.

Why DIY Fixes Often Fail for Blocked Bath Drains
Temporary Fixes vs. Long-Term Solutions
While plungers and drain cleaners might seem like a quick fix for blocked bath drains, they often only address the surface of the problem. These temporary methods may restore some water flow, but they rarely clear deeper obstructions in the pipework.
The Risk of Further Damage
DIY tools and chemical cleaners can do more harm than good. Harsh chemicals can damage pipe linings, and forcing blockages with inadequate tools can lead to cracked or dislodged pipes. This not only worsens the problem but can significantly increase your bath drain services cost in the long run.
