What Causes Drain Blockages in Acton?

Drain blockages in Acton are often caused by everyday materials and habits that gradually accumulate within your drainage system. In residential properties, the most common culprits include grease and fat from cooking, hair buildup in bathroom drains and soap scum that sticks to pipe walls over time. Foreign objects such as wipes, sanitary products or excessive toilet paper can also cause severe clogs.

In older buildings around Acton, tree roots can infiltrate cracked or ageing underground pipes, leading to persistent and hard-to-reach blockages. Commercial premises may face blockages from a mix of heavy usage, food waste and poor maintenance.

Understanding the cause of a blockage is essential for choosing the right drain cleaning method. Our experienced engineers identify the root cause quickly and use the most effective tools to resolve the issue, keeping your drainage system flowing smoothly.

Prompt drain cleaning in Acton is essential to prevent small blockages from turning into costly and disruptive problems. Ignoring slow drains or minor blockages can lead to:

We use high-pressure water jetters and mechanical machinery to force stubborn debris from drainage systems. Our drain clearance technology can remove the toughest debris, such as hair, grease, fats, leaves, and small objects.

Would you like a CCTV inspection of the hidden areas within your drainage system? We can use a small CCTV camera to inspect the parts of your drainage system that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This inspection is necessary for spotting hidden damage, leakage, and blockages that our initial clearance efforts may have missed. Once we locate these areas, we can make the required repairs and clearances to restore them to normal.
