Removal of the drain pipe blockage


We can use a number of methods to unblock drainage to allow the water to soakaway:
By removing stopper: removing the stopper is one way whether the blocked drainpipe is in a sink or bath. In case of your bathtub, the plug can be unscrewed at the mouth of the drainage or the overspill plate can be removed to expose the assembly.
Removing stopper: why is it important?
It is important because only then you can view what are blocking the drain inside the pipe. Lot of particles such as hair, nails and other particles will be seen covered with wretched material inside the drains piping. Reach down into the pipe and pull the mess out as much as possible. If the mass is located in a area, where it is difficult for you to grasp it and pull it out, then use a wire to dig into the area and pull the dirty stuff out.
2nd Method
If the above method doesn't work, use other method of clearing the occlusion. Blockage material which is very mystifying enough can be removed with the help of a drain plunger. First, cover the overflow drain with a wet cloth in order to make the air suck from the plunger stronger. Next, place the piston directly over the drain pipe opening and methodically pulse the piston up and down number of times. Hopefully, after doing this and once the piston is taken away, any water. If all the methods fail then, get the service of sewage removal contractor or drainage service in.
