PORTSMOUTH DESCALING & FAT REMOVAL SERVICES

Descaling and Fat Removal Services in Portsmouth

If you own a home or rent an apartment, you must have experienced a blocked sink. You are not alone because we frequently receive calls from distressed homeowners requesting that we unblock their drainage system. Blocked drains cause awful smells, overflowing gutters, and even flooding in extreme cases. Fortunately, No1PHD has a team of experienced plumbers who will unclog your sink and stack pipes allowing wastewater to flow normally.

What causes the blockage?

When you wash dishes, fat deposits in the waste water fall through the sink into the drainage pipes. It then mixes from other solid waste from dishwashers and other household items to form solid deposits. The deposits accumulate over time and end up clogging the pipes. Even if you wash fats with detergents to break them down, they will still clog your drainage because there are so many fat particles in the wastewater. Sometimes the pipes do not block completely but instead accumulate dirt on the sides until the passage is so narrow that water flow is reduced to a trickle. Such plumbing lines have scales formed through the reaction of different chemicals found in wastewater.

Before your drainage blocks completely or even bursts, there are telltale signs that there is a blockage. They include:

• Foul smell emanating from the pipes.
• Leaks especially at joints and other weak points due to extreme pressure.
• Slow emptying of wastewater in the sink.

How we remove it

When our No1PHD plumbing and drainage experts come to your property, one technique they can employ when they start to survey the blockage is by using drain camera equipment. The survey helps find out exactly where the blockage is so that we can determine the type of equipment to use on a particular drainage problem. We then apply degreasers which are alkaline detergents that dissolve oils and fats, followed by high pressure water jets to drive the fats out.

If the blockage is still there, we use rotary machines that can reach areas that are out of reach of the jetting equipment to remove the dirt. The machines come with hardy grinding ends to remove the scales through a process of back cutting until the pipe returns to its original volume. We can then apply drain jetting to drive out the fats and other compounds that have been removed by the rotary machines. Finally, the plumbers identify those pipes that need repair and replacement to restore your drainage to its original form.
