It makes no sense to blindly push a rod if the blockage is two floors down. For this, 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 from 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, keep going. If after 30-45 minutes it's still blocked, call us. Persisting only makes the situation worse because you push the plug deeper.

Only when the material allows and the case requires it. We always prefer the mechanical method (rod, machine) because it does not damage pipes or joints. For downpipes and multiple clogs (more than one bathroom affected, water coming up in one when you use another), always call a plumber. It is a common installation problem that requires professional tools and often coordination with neighbours. This inspection lasts between 15 and 30 minutes and allows the correct method to be chosen. It is a very useful intervention when the clog is recurrent and we want to know if there is a structural problem behind it, such as a broken pipe or incorrectly calculated slope.

For toilets, a good quality plunger is worth having at home. This is the first intervention. If it doesn't move after five to ten plunges, call a plumber. Forcing it further will break the toilet's wax seal and you'll have an additional problem. The most common one is the sink or basin 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. Each handyman undergoes verification, including ID, valid self-employed registration, and proof of prior experience in the sector. We also value feedback from other clients in the area to maintain a consistent level of quality.

The price for flat removal in Provençals del Poblenou usually ranges between €155 and €1500. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. Yes, a 30-day guarantee. If the blockage reappears at the same point within that period, we will return at no extra cost. This does not cover new blockages at other points. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we'll respond in less than 10 minutes during business hours.
