Questions & booking
Before we visit.
What can I try before calling about a drain choke?
Avoid mixing chemicals. If safe, remove visible debris near the drain and note where water is backing up.
Why does the drain smell bad?
Odour can come from trapped debris, dry traps or drainage issues. The location and timing help narrow it down.
Is a recurring blockage different from a one-off choke?
Yes. Recurring blockages may indicate a deeper issue and should be described clearly.
What photos help?
Send the affected drain, surrounding area and any standing water.
