A blocked sink can be caused by many different things, but the one constant is that it can make anyone’s day miserable. Whether it’s a kitchen sink backing up when you want to do the dishes, or a bathroom sink refusing to drain after a shave, it’s no fun by any measure. Rather than let it ruin your mood, call No1PHD. We have professionals in Portsmouth ready to deal with all your sink unblocking needs on, 01425 208031
Several things can cause a sink to back up, but the main culprits are fats/oils, and hair. Obviously, a bathroom sink is likely to see more hair than it is fats and oils, and vice versa for the kitchen sink. Even though most people know they shouldn’t be flushing these things down the drain, it still happens. Even with people who are careful not to flush fat down their kitchen sink plughole, there will inevitably be some that make it through, unless you never use your sink for dishes. And as for hair, we can’t help it if we lose a strand or two in the shower. Unfortunately, fats, oils, and even hair tend to build up. Once they’ve got a grip on your pipes, it’s much easier to accumulate over time. No1PHD have a range of unblocking tricks and tools at their disposal, so you needn’t worry about anything more than giving us a call and waiting for your expert to arrive.
While it’s handy to have No1PHD’s Portsmouth number 01425 208031 at hand in case of any sink blockages you might unexpectedly face, you might prefer to tackle this kind of problem from a more preventative position. Regular maintenance is not only effective at preventing sink blockages from occurring in the first place, but it also saves you having to deal with the stress of having a sink blockage at all! Call us to talk to an expert about sink drainage maintenance.
There’s something about human nature that seems to like putting things off, but you should resist the urge to do that with your blocked sink (and any drain, for that matter). Even if the blockage is only partial, and the water drains but much more slowly, you are likely to encounter other problems, such as unwanted odours. Not to mention a partially blocked sink will almost always become a fully blocked sink if left to its own devices. And nobody wants dirty sink water spilling onto their floor.
If a sink blockage is localised—that is, only occurring in that one sink—it’s probably limited to that drain in particular. If you are experiencing reduced or no drainage across the property you may have problems deeper in your drainage system. Fortunately, our wealth of experience and specialist equipment means that No1PHD can handle this kind of problem just as professionally as a regular sink blockage. Call us today to book an appointment and we’ll take care of all your blockage related woes.
When it comes to dealing with blocked sinks, kitchen, bathroom, and everything in between, you can’t do better than No1PHD. Proudly serving the wider Portsmouth area, we are happy to provide professional plumbing services. Give us a call on 01425 208031 or email us at; info@no1phd.co.uk
