A blocked bath can disrupt your daily routine and create a messy and unpleasant situation in your home. At Capital Plumbing, we specialize in providing fast, effective, and professional blocked bath repair services. Our team of experienced plumbers is equipped to handle any blockage, ensuring your bath is back in working order as quickly as possible.

Understanding Blocked Baths

Blocked baths occur when debris accumulates in the drain, preventing water from flowing freely. This can lead to water pooling in the tub, slow drainage, and even complete blockages that render the bath unusable.

Common Causes of Blocked Baths

Hair: Hair is one of the most common culprits behind blocked bath drains. It can accumulate over time and combine with soap scum to form stubborn clogs.

Soap Scum: Soap residue can build up in the pipes, narrowing the passageway and leading to blockages.

Dirt and Skin Flakes: Dirt and dead skin cells washed off during bathing can accumulate and contribute to drain blockages.
Foreign Objects: Small objects like jewelry, toys, or bath accessories can accidentally enter the drain and cause blockages.
Mineral Deposits: Hard water can leave mineral deposits in the pipes, which can build up over time and obstruct water flow.

Signs of a Blocked Bath

Recognizing the signs of a blocked bath early can help you address the issue before it becomes more severe. Common indicators include:

Slow Draining: Water takes a long time to drain after you pull the plug, indicating a partial blockage.
Water Pooling: Water pooling around your feet during a shower or lingering in the tub after a bath.
Bad Odors: Unpleasant smells coming from the drain, caused by trapped debris and stagnant water.
Gurgling Sounds: Strange gurgling noises from the drain as water tries to pass through a blockage.
Visible Debris: Hair, soap scum, or other debris visible around the drain opening.

Our Blocked Bath Repair Services

At Capital Plumbing, we offer a comprehensive range of services to diagnose and resolve blocked bath issues efficiently and effectively.

Inspection and Diagnosis

We use advanced diagnostic tools to inspect your bath drain and identify the cause of the blockage. Our team employs CCTV cameras and other technology to get a clear view of the inside of your pipes, ensuring accurate diagnosis and effective solutions.

Clearing Blockages

We utilize various methods to clear blocked baths, depending on the severity and type of blockage:

Plunging: For minor blockages, a professional-grade plunger can often dislodge the obstruction and restore proper drainage.
Drain Snaking: A drain snake, or auger, is a flexible tool that can reach deep into the pipes to dislodge and remove blockages.
Hydro Jetting: This method uses high-pressure water jets to blast away stubborn blockages and clean the inside of your pipes.
Chemical Treatments: In some cases, safe and effective chemical treatments can dissolve stubborn blockages without damaging your pipes.

Regular Cleaning: Clean the drain cover and the area around the drain regularly to prevent buildup of debris.
Avoid Pouring Grease: Avoid pouring oils, grease, or other fatty substances down the drain, as they can solidify and cause blockages.

Use Baking Soda and Vinegar: Pour a mixture of baking soda and vinegar down the drain occasionally to help break down any buildup.
