The most common problem homeowners face now and then is a clogged drain. Depending on the extent of the blockage, it can be an expensive and time-consuming problem to resolve, and it is usually inconvenient.
But what are the top causes of Blocked Drain Kent , and how do we stop getting our drains clogged?
- Grease and Fat
The most common cause of drain blockage is this. Most people dump extra fat and grease down their plughole when washing kitchen utensils, creating clogs in their drainage system.
Since fatty substances are notoriously sticky, they stick to the drain’s edges, steadily piling up as more fat and grease is poured down the drain.
Keep an eye on what you’re putting down your plughole to stop this fatty drain blockage. Look for other ways to eliminate any fatty deposits or grease scraping into tissue and tossing in the garbage.
- Hairstyles
You might be thinking that the hair can easily be washed out through the drain but, you are wrong since they are very versatile and can easily get stuck on pipes. This allows more hair to get tangled in the already tangled hair, resulting in a nasty buildup.
This can make showering very uncomfortable because damp hair attracts any chemicals washed down the plughole, causing the buildup to smell. It will also prevent water from draining correctly, leaving you standing in a pool of essentially polluted water.
You need to regularly check for hair in and around your drain hole, and you must invest in a drain hole cover with smaller holes to trap the hair that runs through the holes but still let the water flow through it, which will help avoid a significant buildup.
- Leaves
Since you can’t fully manage what goes down your drain, it’s still at risk of being clogged.
A common cause of outdoor drain blockage is leaves, particularly in the autumn months. Leaves fall into the drain and accumulate at the bottom. When you’re out walking, you’ve probably noticed how easily wet leaves stick to stuff, particularly your shoes. These leaves all bind together and clog up the pipes.
They may also clump together on top of the drain cover, blocking water to seep into the drain.
- Garbage
Outdoor drain blockage can also be caused by garbage. Some pieces of trash can get trapped in your drainage system, creating a backlog of water and other debris. This is difficult to combat since there isn’t a continuous cycle of garbage causing a blockage. Due to the season and temperature, you can usually predict when a blockage will occur with leaves. Placing a cover over your drain will reduce the amount of trash that gets into your drainage system while still allowing it to work correctly.
It is necessary to provide a fully functional drain. So if you find a potential drainage problem, address it as soon as possible. It’s not a good idea to ignore it in the hopes that it will go away because current issues will quickly intensify into something much more dramatic.
