Blocked Sink and Shower Experts in Lancaster & Morecambe
A slow-draining sink or shower is more than just frustrating—it’s often the first sign of a persistent blockage that needs professional attention. Hair, soap scum, and everyday debris accumulate quickly in your waste pipes, leading to bad smells and eventual flooding. Our local team provides fast, non-invasive unblocking services for all blocked sinks and showers across Lancaster, Morecambe, and the surrounding areas, restoring your plumbing system quickly and effectively.
Causes of Blocked Bathroom and Kitchen Drains
The waste pipes leading from your sinks and showers are smaller than your main drain, making them particularly susceptible to localized blockages. We use specialized equipment to pinpoint the exact location and cause of the blockage, which commonly includes:
-
Bathroom Sinks and Showers: Accumulation of hair, soap residue, beauty products, and mineral build-up.
-
Kitchen Sinks: Heavy residue from Fat, Oil, and Grease (FOG) combining with food particles to create a tough, sticky obstruction.
-
Foreign Objects: Small items that have been dropped down the plug hole.
Attempting to clear these with plunger or chemical products often fails to remove the entire blockage, leading to the problem returning quickly.
Fast, Local Unblocking Service: No Call-Out Fee
When your sink or shower is out of action, you need rapid service. Our engineers are local to the Lancaster and Morecambe area and aim to be on site quickly, often within 30 minutes for emergency calls.
