Describe when the sink backs up

Does the kitchen sink hold water after every use, or does a bathroom basin drain slowly? Tell SouthFlow which outlet is affected and whether the problem follows use of another fixture. Include gurgling, smells and any outside drainage symptoms.

SouthFlow drainage work and equipment

Explain previous clearance and changes

Mention products used, recent work to the waste route and earlier attempts to clear it. Say how long any improvement lasted. If symptoms return quickly or affect several fixtures, further investigation may be more useful than treating the sink as an isolated issue.

Confirm the scope of the enquiry

Ask whether work covers the sink waste alone, connected drainage or additional inspection. Explain access and working-space restrictions at the address. The blockage, attendance arrangements and required method affect the quote, so confirm included charges and how further work would be agreed.

Your Basingstoke service questions

Do you clear kitchen sinks and bathroom basins?

Yes. Tell us which outlet is affected and whether it drains slowly, holds water or backs up when another outlet is used.

Why does my sink keep blocking?

Build-up in the waste route or a restriction further downstream may be involved. If the problem returns after clearance, share the history so the connected drainage can be considered.

What if other outlets are backing up too?

Report all affected outlets together. Several symptoms at the same time can indicate a restriction further along a connected drainage route rather than a problem confined to the sink trap.

Should I mention unblockers I have already used?

Yes. Tell us which products were used and whether standing water remains before anyone handles the waste pipe. Also mention trap cleaning or other attempts to clear it.

Does the service include the outside drain?

That depends on where the restriction lies and the work agreed. Ask whether the quote covers only the sink waste or includes connected external drainage and any investigation.

Can you help outside normal hours?

Yes. SouthFlow provides 24/7 drainage help. Explain the symptoms and their impact, then confirm attendance arrangements and charges for your address.

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.
