Common Causes of Blocked Sinks in Ilminster and Somerset

Sinks typically block for a variety of reasons, often due to everyday build-up. Understanding the culprits can sometimes help prevent future issues, but when it's too late, our team is here to help Ilminster homeowners.

Here are the most frequent causes we encounter:

Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG): These substances solidify in your pipes, especially when cooled, creating sticky blockages that trap other debris.
Food Debris: Bits of food, coffee grounds, and tea leaves can accumulate over time, forming a sludge that obstructs water flow.
Hair and Soap Scum: In bathroom sinks, hair combined with soap residue creates tough, matted blockages.
Foreign Objects: Accidental dropping of small items like jewellery, bottle caps, or even children's toys can cause immediate blockages.
Mineral Build-up: Hard water can leave mineral deposits that narrow pipes and lead to blockages over time.

Our Efficient Process for Clearing Your Ilminster Blocked Sink

When you call Devon and Cornwall Drainage for your blocked sink in Ilminster, you can expect a prompt and professional service. Our process is designed for maximum effectiveness and minimal disruption.

Rapid Response: We aim for same-day service wherever possible, understanding that a blocked sink needs immediate attention.
Initial Assessment: Our qualified engineer will quickly assess the blockage to determine its location and likely cause.
Powerful Unblocking: Utilising high-pressure water jetting, we blast away blockages with incredible force, dislodging grease, debris, and any other obstructions. For more delicate pipes or specific blockages, we may employ electro-mechanical cleaning.
Thorough CCTV Inspection: The crucial final step involves a free CCTV drain survey. A small camera is inserted into your pipework to ensure the blockage is completely cleared and to check the structural integrity of your drains, giving you peace of mind.

"Our kitchen sink has been slow-draining for months. After trying every chemical from the supermarket, we finally called the experts. They cleared a massive grease blockage and then used a camera to show us the pipe was clear. Professional, tidy, and very knowledgeable. A fantastic, reliable local service."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our blocked sink unblocking services in Topsham, Exeter, and across Devon.

What is included in the £199 fixed-price drainage service?

Our £199 fixed price covers the entire domestic drain clearance process with no hidden call-out fee. It includes the labour, the use of our professional unblocking equipment, and a free follow-up CCTV drain survey to check the pipe is perfectly clear.

How quickly can you fix my blocked sink in Topsham?

We know a blocked sink disrupts your day, so we offer same-day callouts and a 24/7 genuine emergency response. If you face a severe blockage or an overflowing sink, we aim to be with you as fast as possible.

Why does my kitchen sink keep blocking?

Frequent blockages usually happen because of fat and grease build-up. Hot oil poured down the drain cools and solidifies in the pipes, trapping food scraps and creating a solid plug. Our high-pressure water jetting completely removes this stubborn grease.

Do you clear shared drains or just private ones?

We clear all private domestic drains. If we discover the blockage is located in a shared lateral drain, we will advise you on how to contact South West Water, as they are normally responsible for those shared public sewers.
