Blocked bath drain

Most blocked bath drain issues don’t happen overnight — they build up gradually until one day, the water simply won’t drain. Identifying the cause is the first step to a lasting solution.

Here are the most common culprits:

Hair: Loose strands often get caught in the plughole or further down the pipework, where they combine with soap and dirt to form dense, tangled clumps that restrict water flow.
Soap Scum & Bath Additives: Soaps, bath bombs, and oils may feel luxurious, but they leave behind residue that sticks to pipe walls and traps debris — eventually causing a blockage.
Limescale: In hard water areas, minerals like calcium settle in your pipes over time, forming tough deposits that narrow the diameter of the pipe and encourage further build-up.

Tell-tale signs your bathtub is blocked:

Water drains more slowly than usual
A foul smell lingers after use
Gurgling noises come from the plughole
Dirty water rises back into the tub

If your bathtub is blocked, plungers and off-the-shelf drain cleaners might seem like a quick fix, but they often treat the symptoms, not the cause — and in some cases, they can even damage your pipes.

At DrainBoss, we take a professional approach. Our engineers use electro-mechanical cable machines to break through stubborn clogs deep in your system, as well as high-pressure water jetting to flush out debris and descale internal pipe walls. This ensures a thorough clean and helps to prevent the issue from recurring.

Whether it’s a minor clog or a major obstruction, our drain unblocking bath service is designed to restore full drainage with minimal disruption.

No guesswork, no half-measures — just a complete, effective solution.
