Waste material can build up in a drainage network over time causing a blockage.

Flow rates are reduced during this process and other material subsequently collects around it.

​

Some of the most common things that require external drains to be cleaned include: –

​

• Insoluble scale and solids created in hard water areas

• Grease and fats that are rinsed away after cooking

• Sanitary products that don’t dissolve in water; wet wipes, tampons etc

• Plastics including bags and wrapping
