Maintaining drains is a vital part of property maintenance, supporting the function, health and safety of homes and commercial premises. As with most things, prevention is better than cure; looking after drains keeps them flowing freely, minimising the risk of blocked drains and blocked toilets. In turn, this prevents the inconvenience, disruption, damage and health risks that come with clogged drains and overflowing toilets.

Below, we explain why it’s important to keep drains clear:
Lack of drainage is the most obvious problem that comes with a blockage. When water doesn’t drain, it is impossible to use the affected sink, bath, shower or toilet. Function is also reduced as blockages develop. For example, as debris builds up in the pipework, water begins to drain more slowly.
Blocked toilets and drains are incredibly inconvenient, disrupting daily life. Our team also covers CCTV drain surveys to identify issues and drain lining to resolve them.
Signs of emergency blocked drains are foul smells that can spread through the room and even the wider property, making it an unpleasant place to be. These odours are caused by the build-up of things like food scraps, fat and grease. Items like wet wipes and cotton wool also contribute to smells by causing water to sit and stagnate.
If you want to keep your Yeovil property smelling fresh, keep the drains clear and clean. Our drain company can help with sink and toilet unblocking.
When it comes to domestic and commercial drainage, health is a key consideration. Blocked drains can create the perfect breeding ground for harmful bacteria and insects. Furthermore, blocked and overflowing toilets pose a serious contamination risk; if sewage backs up into the property, there is a risk of exposure to various diseases.
Clearing a blockage will cost you money. Many people spend a lot of money on DIY toilet and sink unblocking solutions, and these often don’t work. If you need to call out a drain company, you’ll have to pay for their unblocking services. There might also be additional costs if the blockage has caused further damage.
Up and Running Drainage is available 24/7 to clear blocked toilets and drains in the Yeovil area. We can also provide expert advice to help prevent future blockages.
