Frequently Asked Questions
Blocked drains are a health hazard and it can cause major water damage to your property in severe cases.

If you have a blocked drain and you’re unsure of how to solve the problem, Snupit provides you with the best blocked drain contractors around your area. That way you’re able to select a plumber that can repair your drains at a cost that’s suitable for you.
How do I know if my drain is blocked?
The most common indication of a blocked drain is a foul sewerage smell that won’t go away even if you run water down the pipes. Another clogged drain warning is slow drainage. Water will take longer than usual to flow down the pipes. Gurgling sounds and raised water levels are also a common occurrence if you have a blocked drain.
Is there a way to prevent blocked drains?
Most people forget that there are certain liquids and items you can’t flush down drains or toilets because it can block your pipes. To prevent drain blockages avoid pouring oil, chemicals or food down your drains.
Never flush any big items down your toilet. The only items to be thrown into your toilet are sanitary wipes and toilet paper. Other items can’t be broken down by the water so they will clog your pipes if you flush them.
Should I use drain cleaner annually even if my drains aren’t clogged?
It’s recommended that you clean out your drains with a proper cleaning agent once a year. However, drain cleaner is not suitable for severely blocked drains. It’s best to let the professionals handle the situation so they can fix the problem immediately and prevent future damage to your property.
How do I know when my drain is blocked?
One early sign of drain blockage is a foul odour coming from the sinks, bath or shower drains. If you notice a pungent odour coming from your drains, it may be time to contact your local plumber to fix the problem.
