A common problem that is faced by every commercial business & household in the Dublin is the annoying dilemma of blocked drains. There are various causes associated with blocked drains that would be highlighted in this article with the intention of generating awareness in favor of prevention.

If the drainage system of your home or business is outdoors, the most common cause of blockage would be dead leaves clogging the drain system. A simple cover with holes that allows water to pass through could prevent the blockage and save the cost of drain cleaning.

Drains in kitchens are usually blocked due to greasy foods and other debris that decrease the diameter of drain lining whereas the drains in bathrooms get blocked because of flushing of inappropriate items such as excessive toilet paper. Hair from shaving and haircuts could be collected from the drain filter to allow the water to pass and prevent the formation of a clot which results in blocked drains.
