Clearing

Blocked Shower & Bath Unblocking

Standing in an inch of water? Sorted before your next shower.

Shower trays and baths block gradually. Hair binds with soap scum in the trap and slowly restricts flow until you're standing ankle-deep in cold water. We clear the trap, treat the pipe run and check the stack — no chemicals dumped into your drainage, no chipped enamel or cracked trays.

Our process

How we handle blocked shower & bath unblocking

01

Trap access

We remove the grille and inspection point to reach the trap.

02

Manual clearance

Hair and scum removed by hand and by specialist snake.

03

Waste pipe flush

Warm degreaser or mini-jetter used to clear the pipe run.

04

Flow test

Full drain-down test confirms the run is clear.

Kit we bring

Hair-removal augers
Enzymatic degreasers
Mini-jetter
Endoscope camera

While you wait — do

✓ Remove bath mats and shampoo bottles
✓ Ventilate the room during the visit

Please don't

✕ Don't pour bleach in and wait — it doesn't dissolve hair
✕ Don't use metal implements on acrylic trays

Common questions

Will you scratch my shower tray?▾

No — we use protective sleeves on all tools and work through the trap where possible.

How can I stop it happening again?▾

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