What to expect
A drainage engineer will find the blockage, clear it with rods or a jetter, and check the water runs freely. If it keeps happening, they may suggest a camera look to see why.
Most blockages are cleared in under an hour.

Questions
The things people ask.
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.
