For superficial clogs in sinks or basins, an inexpensive manual plumbers' 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. Insisting only makes the situation worse because you push the blockage to a deeper point. The plumber's first step is to find out where the clog is. It makes no sense to blindly insert a rod if the blockage is two floors below. 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 a screen. Hair, grease, plant roots, foreign objects, fragments of old construction.

For downpipes and multiple clogs (more than one bathroom affected, water coming up in one when you use another), always call a plumber. It's a common installation problem that requires professional tools and often coordination with neighbours. For clogged toilets, the classic plunger only works if the blockage is superficial. When the clog is deeper, in the internal toilet trap or the first bend of the downpipe, a professional auger or small rotary machine is needed. It's good to know this because many people end up removing the entire toilet thinking it's the only way. In reality, it's the last option. The most complex case is a clogged downpipe. 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 bar 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 make things worse.

For toilets, a quality plunger is worth having at home. It's the first line of intervention. If it doesn't clear after five to ten plunges, call the plumber. Forcing it further will damage the toilet's wax seal and create an additional problem. The most common clog is in the sink or basin trap. Solidified grease and soap form a soft blockage that can be removed with a manual auger or a gentle chemical cleaner if the material is PVC. Caustic soda should not be used in old lead or copper pipes. It corrodes the metal and creates worse problems than the original. Each handyman goes through a verification process that includes ID, valid self-employment status, and verification of previous experience in the sector. We also value feedback from other local customers to maintain a consistent level of quality.
