Clear a slow drain

Remove visible waste, clean the trap, flush the line and check for leaks — and when the blockage is further down.

Check before you buy

  • Identify every affected fixture
  • Confirm existing waste-pipe diameter
  • Locate an accessible cleaning point

Step by step

  1. 1

    Locate the blockage

    Remove visible debris and check the fixture trap first. If several outlets are slow, stop using them and inspect the shared branch or stack.

  2. 2

    Open and clear safely

    Use an accessible cleaning point or door bend. Protect seals and pipe walls, and avoid forcing unsuitable tools through sharp bends.

  3. 3

    Correct the waste route

    Replace damaged or badly aligned sections with the matching diameter, maintain fall and use swept bends and tees for smoother flow.

  4. 4

    Flush and leak-test

    Reassemble couplings and reducers, run water at each connected fixture and inspect joints and floor-drain edges before finishing.

Safety Wear gloves and eye protection, ventilate the area and never mix chemical drain cleaners.

When to call a professional Call a plumber for repeated blockages, sewage backup, concealed pipe damage or any blockage affecting several fixtures.
