How to Unblock My Drain Outside in Lincolnshire

Are you experiencing issues with a blocked drain outside your property in Lincolnshire? At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that a clogged drain can cause. In this article, we will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to unblock your drain outside and offer expert advice on maintenance and prevention.

Identifying the Problem

Before attempting to unblock your drain, it's essential to identify the source of the problem. Check your drain for visible signs of blockage, such as slow draining water or a complete blockage. If you're unsure, our team at Blocked Drains Lincoln can provide a CCTV drain survey to determine the cause of the issue.

Causes of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  • Grease and fat buildup
  • Hair and soap scum
  • Tree roots
  • Debris and leaves
  • Poor maintenance

Unblocking Your Drain

To unblock your drain outside, follow these steps:

  1. Turn off the water supply: Before attempting to unblock your drain, turn off the water supply to prevent further water from flowing into the drain.
  2. Use a drain rod: A drain rod can be used to remove blockages from your drain. Feed the rod into the drain and rotate it to break up any debris.
  3. Use a plunger: A plunger can be used to create suction and remove blockages from your drain.
  4. Use a high-pressure water jet: If the blockage is more severe, a high-pressure water jet may be required to clear the blockage.

Drain Jetting

At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer a drain jetting service to clear blockages from your drain. Our team uses high-pressure water jets to blast away debris and restore your drain to its normal function.

Maintenance and Prevention

To prevent blocked drains from occurring in the future, it's essential to maintain your drainage system regularly. Here are some tips:

  • Regularly clean your drain: Use a drain cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar to clean your drain.
  • Avoid pouring grease and fat down the drain: Grease and fat can solidify in your drain and cause blockages.
  • Trim tree roots: If you have trees near your property, trim the roots regularly to prevent them from growing into your drain.
