Drains Blocked.....???

Handy Tip # 1:   In the unfortunate event that you find yourself with a blocked drain, there are some things that you can do for yourself that may save you the unnecessary Call Out for a Technician;

• If your toilet is blocked, on some occasions it is merely blocked inside the toilet bowl and may only require plunging to dislodge the obstruction.
  
  
• If you feel courageous enough to attempt this task it may save you some money. If you manage to clear obstruction and the toilet then operates normally, then that may be all that is required.
  
  
• On the other hand, if it does not clear or the problem persists, then it may be time to call in the professionals and this is where can help you.
