It’s tempting to tackle a clogged loo with a plunger or chemical drain unblocker from the supermarket. Sometimes that’s enough for minor snags.
But if the problem persists, water rising unusually high, gurgling noises in nearby drains, or recurring backups, DIY methods may only be masking a larger issue. That’s when our expert toilet drain unblocking service becomes essential.
A plunger often fixes minor clogs caused by excess toilet paper or small objects. Position it over the drain, create a tight seal, and pump with steady pressure. If water starts to drain after a few plunges, you’ve likely cleared the blockage yourself.
If water remains after plunging, blockages return, you smell sewage or see damp spots, call us.

Contact usProfessional drain unblockers contain specially formulated enzymes or biodegradable chemicals that break down organic waste, like paper and hair without harming your pipes. They’re more effective than store brands and won’t degrade metal or PVC lines when used correctly.
For straightforward clogs, our technicians often finish in 30–60 minutes. If a deeper inspection reveals tree roots or a collapsed pipe, it could take longer, but we’ll update you immediately and stick to the quoted price.
Absolutely, as long as the pipe material is assessed first. If required, we use remote cameras to confirm that your lines can handle water jet pressure. In cases where pipes are fragile, we switch to manual drain snake techniques to avoid any risk of damage.
Keep tissues to a minimum, never flush wipes (even if labelled “flushable”), avoid pouring cooking grease or coffee grounds down the loo, and be cautious with cotton swabs and sanitary products. If you’re unsure about an item, it’s best to toss it in the bin.
Foreign Objects: Toys, dental floss, sanitary products, or too much toilet paper can quickly create a choke point.
Mineral Buildup: Hard water deposits sometimes narrow your pipes over time, making them prone to clogs.
Tree Roots: In older neighbourhoods of Plymouth, tree roots can invade underground lines, causing serious blockages.
Flushing Non-Flushables: Wipes, cotton pads, and hygiene products labelled “flushable” often don’t break down as expected and jam the system.
By understanding what leads to a blocked toilet, you can be more careful, and when accidents do happen, you know who to call.
Regular Maintenance: Once every six months, pour a small amount of enzyme-based cleaner down the toilet to keep pipes free from buildup.
Mind the Flush: Only native toilet paper and human waste should go down. Anything else risks creating another blocked toilet.
Immediate Action: At the first sign of slow draining, like gurgling or water that barely swirls, address it. The sooner you act, the easier (and cheaper) it is to fix.
Our basic toilet unblocking service starts at £100, which covers a thorough inspection and simple rodding to clear most blockages. If we discover a deeper issue—say a stubborn clog beyond reach, we will discussed this and explain everything including price before any extra work begins. In those cases, costs typically rise to accommodate high-pressure jetting, camera surveys, minor relining, or other specialist repairs. We’ll always explain each step and its price so you stay in control. If you’re unsure whether your blockage is straightforward or more complex, give us a call.

First time I’ve used Drainblock but Roman was brill. Top class. Great communication, excellent work and knowledge , and fairly priced. Having hired many many trades as a landlord and holiday let owner I can say I really wish they were all this easy to deal with.
Called Roman with a query about a blocked drain at 1815 .
Was given very competitive prices for a call out at this time of night and a straight forward breakdown of what it may cost if the time went over 1 hour.
Gladly agreed to get him out and can happily say drain was completely unblocked within 45 minutes of original call.
Roman very kindly gave his time and experience to help us deal with a terrible experience from a rogue trader. He reviewed CCTV footage and was able to explain what would have been a reasonable and fair (in contrast to what happened to us). I’m incredibly grateful to him. I will certainly choose him for a good, honest local service in the future. Thanks, Roman!
