As a homeowner or business owner in Lincolnshire, it's essential to know the signs of a blocked drain to avoid costly repairs and potential health hazards. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we provide expert drainage services to residents and businesses in Lincoln, Gainsborough, Retford, Tuxford, Newark-on-Trent, Collingham, and surrounding areas. In this article, we'll guide you on how to identify a blocked drain and what to do next.

1. Slow Draining Water: If water is draining slowly from your sink, toilet, or shower, it may indicate a blockage in your drain.
2. Gurgling Sounds: Unusual gurgling sounds from your drains can be a sign of a blockage, especially if accompanied by slow draining water.
3. Bad Smells: Foul odors from your drains can indicate a blockage, especially if you notice a strong smell of sewage or rotting food.
4. Water Backing Up: If water is backing up into your sink, toilet, or shower, it's a clear sign of a blocked drain.
5. Gully Blockages: If you notice water accumulating around your gullies (the grates that cover your drains), it may indicate a blockage.

1. Kitchen Drains: Grease, food waste, and soap scum can cause blockages in your kitchen drains.
2. Toilet Drains: Flushing non-biodegradable items, such as wet wipes or sanitary products, can cause blockages in your toilet drains.
3. Road Gullies: Debris, leaves, and dirt can accumulate in road gullies, causing blockages and flooding.

In Lincolnshire, the responsibility for fixing a blocked drain depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is within your property boundary, it's your responsibility to fix it. However, if the blockage is in a public sewer or road gully, it's the responsibility of the local water authority or council.

To prevent blockages, it's essential to:
