Blocked Shower & Bath Unblocking for Orpington (BR6) properties

Older homes in Orpington 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 BR6.

Most common drainage problems in Orpington

  • Displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement
  • Root ingress at clay pipe joints on tree-lined streets around Orpington

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