Signs of a blocked kitchen drain
Slow draining water
Water draining slowly from your sink is one of the first signs something is obstructing the pipes.
Foul odours
Food particles, grease and debris collecting in the pipes cause persistent unpleasant smells.
Gurgling sounds
Strange gurgling when water drains suggests trapped air in the pipes, often caused by a blockage.
Water backup
Water backing into the sink when using the tap or dishwasher indicates a serious blockage.
Standing water
Water that won't drain at all means a full blockage in the pipes — requiring immediate action.
Caught it early? A quick professional clear now can save you a flooded kitchen later.
What causes blocked kitchen drains?
Food waste
Food scraps, coffee grounds and debris build up in the pipes over time, causing drainage problems.
Grease and fat
Liquid when hot, grease solidifies as it cools — sticking to pipe walls and forming stubborn blockages.
Soap scum
Detergents and soap build up over time, especially combined with grease, into thick blockages.
Foreign objects
Utensils, sponges or other small objects can accidentally fall into the drain and block the flow.

Preventing kitchen drain blockages
Prevention beats dealing with a blocked drain. Follow these simple tips:
Dispose of grease properly
Never pour grease or fat down the drain. Let it cool and solidify, then bin it.
Use a drain guard
A drain guard in your sink catches food particles before they enter the drain.
Flush drains regularly
Regularly flushing with boiling water helps prevent grease and soap scum build-up.
Bin food waste
Scrape food scraps into the bin rather than rinsing them down the sink.
