The first step for the plumber is to find out where the blockage is. There's no point in blindly inserting a rod if the blockage is two floors down. For that, we use an endoscopic inspection camera, a thin camera mounted on a flexible cable that travels through the pipe and shows the exact point of the clog and its nature on screen. Hair, grease, plant roots, foreign objects, fragments of old construction. For superficial clogs in sinks or washbasins, a cheap manual plumbing snake from a hardware store and half an hour of patience are usually enough. If the water starts to move, you continue. If after 30-45 minutes it's still blocked, call us. Insisting only makes the situation worse because you push the plug deeper. Sinks, bathtubs, toilets, and exterior downpipes. Professional high-pressure equipment and rods. Diagnosis before action.

The most complex case is a downpipe blockage. The downpipe is the vertical pipe that collects wastewater from several floors in the same block. When it gets clogged, it usually affects several neighbours at once. This is where the high-pressure machine comes into play, capable of pushing water at 150 bars and clearing everything. It is the most effective equipment but also the most delicate. If the pipe has cracks or weak joints, the pressure can worsen things. This inspection lasts between 15 and 30 minutes and allows us to choose the correct method. It is a very useful intervention when the blockage is recurrent and we want to know if there is a structural problem behind it, such as a broken pipe or an incorrectly calculated slope. ● Water not draining from the sink or bathtub ● Unpleasant odour rising from the drain ● Gurgling in the toilet when using another tap or shower ● Water backing up when opening the kitchen tap ● Drain running slower than usual ● Damp stains around the trap

The most common blockage is in the sink or washbasin trap. Solidified grease and soap form a soft plug that can be removed with a manual rod or with a mild chemical cleaner if the material is PVC. Caustic soda should not be used on old lead or copper pipes. It corrodes the metal and creates worse problems than the original. Every handyman undergoes a verification process that includes ID, valid self-employment registration, and proof of prior industry experience. We also value feedback from other local customers to maintain a consistent level of quality. No, we choose the product compatible with each material (stoneware, marble, microcement, parquet) after prior assessment. This is precisely what prevents scratching or dulling new surfaces.
