Drain Choke Clearing in Singapore

Hair and soap build-up in bathroom traps, and grease plus food waste in kitchen sinks, are the most common causes. In toilets, it's usually flushed wipes or foreign objects.

A choke that keeps coming back often points to a partial blockage deeper in the line, a build-up of grease, or a pipe defect such as a sag or crack. We'll inspect and tell you what's really going on.

Yes. We clear grease-laden kitchen drains and floor traps for F&B outlets, retail and offices, and can advise on keeping them clear to avoid hygiene and downtime issues.

Most floor trap and sink chokes are cleared in a single visit, often within an hour of us being on site. A blockage further down the discharge pipe, or one caused by hardened grease or cement, takes longer because we need to reach it properly rather than push it along to become someone else's problem next week.

Sometimes, on a soft and shallow build-up of hair or soap. Often it does not, and it is worth knowing why. The liquid sits on top of a solid blockage without ever reaching it, so you end up with the same choke and a pipe full of caustic liquid. Please tell us if you have poured any in before we arrive, so we can open the trap safely.

When more than one fixture backs up together, the blockage is usually in neither of them. It sits further down the line they share, so clearing the sink alone would only move the problem along. In a flat that often means the common discharge stack. We check which fixtures are affected before opening anything up, because that tells us how far down the choke actually sits.
