Blocked Shower & Bath Unblocking in Five Ash Down

Blocked Shower & Bath Unblocking for Five Ash Down (TN22) properties

Older homes in Five Ash Down were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every blocked shower & bath unblocking job we take in TN22.

A hair-catcher over the plughole and a monthly bioactive drain treatment prevents almost all recurrence.
