Most drains jobs in Plymouth start from about £92, and sink, bath or toilet is typically £92 – £130. Prices in South West are worked into every figure. Answer a few questions above for your own price.

Is a blocked drain my responsibility?

Pipes serving only your home are usually yours. Shared ones beyond your boundary are often the water company's. An engineer can tell you which.

Should I use drain unblocker?

It can help with a slow sink, but don't keep pouring it in if it's fully blocked.

Why does it keep blocking?

Fat, wipes or a damaged pipe are the usual reasons. A CCTV survey shows exactly what's going on.
