Blocked Showers in Selsey, West Sussex

Most homeowners we speak to in Selsey find that shower blockages are a unique beast compared to a blocked toilet or kitchen sink. The culprit is almost always a cocktail of hair, soap scum, and body oils that bind together inside the trap or further down the waste pipe. Over time, this mixture hardens, catching more debris until the flow of water is restricted to a trickle. While it's tempting to reach for a bottle of harsh chemicals from the supermarket, these often do more harm than good to your pipework. We use professional electro-mechanical cleaning tools and specialised trap clearance techniques to physically remove the obstruction. Whether you're in one of Selsey's classic coastal cottages or a modern development near the sea, we've got the right kit to clear the blockage properly the first time.

Because we're genuinely local, we don't believe in making you wait around for a technician to travel from halfway across the country. We know the roads into Selsey and Chichester like the back of our hand, which means we can often be at your door within the hour if you're facing an emergency. Have you ever had a slow drain turn into a leak that starts appearing on the ceiling below? That's when things get expensive. By calling us early, we can diagnose the issue—whether it's a simple hair clog or a more complex problem with the shower waste pipe—and fix it before it causes structural damage. We're available 24/7, because we know that drainage disasters don't exactly stick to a nine-to-five schedule.

We've all heard the horror stories of 'cowboy' tradespeople who add hidden charges the moment they step through the door. At Sink and Drain, we do things differently. We don't charge a call-out fee, and we believe in clear, upfront pricing. When we arrive at your home in Selsey, we'll take a look at the problem, explain exactly what's going on in plain English, and give you a price before we start work. We're fully insured and take immense pride in leaving your bathroom as clean as we found it. It’s about providing the kind of service we’d want for our own families—honest, reliable, and effective.

Sometimes a blocked shower is just the tip of the iceberg. If you find that your drains are backing up every few weeks despite your best efforts, there might be a deeper issue further down the line. In these cases, we can use our waterproof CCTV cameras to carry out a detailed survey of your drainage system. This allows us to spot things like scale build-up, shifted joints, or even tree root intrusion that might be affecting your home's main sewer line. It takes the guesswork out of the job and ensures we’re providing a long-term solution rather than just a quick fix. From Selsey to Chichester, we’re equipped to handle everything from a simple plug hole clear-out to full-scale drain repairs.
