Explain how the toilet has become affected

A toilet that flushes slowly and one that is overflowing need a different description when you arrange help. Tell us when the problem began, whether water is draining at all and whether the facilities can be used.

Avoid repeated flushing when the bowl is rising or not emptying. If wastewater is overflowing, keep people and pets away and describe where the water is going.

SouthFlow drainage work and equipment

The other outlets matter too

Let SouthFlow know if a sink, another toilet or an outside drain is backing up. Several affected outlets can point to connected drainage that needs assessment beyond the first toilet.

For repeat blockages, provide the clearance history and any earlier findings. A drain camera survey may be worth discussing if a hidden problem is suspected.

Arrange the work for the actual restriction

SouthFlow is based in Petersfield and covers Alton with 24/7 drainage help and £5 million public liability insurance. Share the property postcode and access information.

The work required depends on the restriction, available access and any further investigation. Confirm attendance arrangements, included work and charges when requesting a quote.

Your Alton service questions

What should I do if my toilet is blocked?

Avoid flushing again if water is not leaving the bowl. Keep people and pets away from any wastewater overflow. When contacting us, explain whether this is the only usable toilet.

Can the blockage be in the outside drain?

Yes. A restriction further along the drainage route can cause the toilet to back up. Mention other affected toilets, gurgling sinks or outside overflows so the wider pattern is considered.

Why does the toilet keep blocking?

There may be a persistent restriction or an underlying issue further along the drain. Share previous clearance findings and how soon symptoms returned; further investigation may be useful.

Will I need a CCTV survey?

Not every toilet blockage needs a survey. The symptoms, clearance findings and history will help determine whether camera inspection of connected drainage would be useful.

What should I tell you before the visit?

Give the full address, describe the water level and any overflow, and mention products used or items accidentally flushed. Explain any access restrictions and who can authorise the work.

Is help available at night or at weekends?

Yes. SouthFlow provides 24/7 drainage help. Confirm attendance arrangements and charges for your enquiry rather than assuming a particular arrival time.

How much does the work cost?

We quote for the work your property needs. The price depends on the problem, access, preparation and attendance arrangements. When requesting a quote, ask what is included and whether VAT or additional investigation charges apply.
