Identifying the Blockage

Before you start clearing the blockage, it's essential to identify the source of the problem. Check your drain covers and pipework for any signs of damage or blockages. If you live in a communal property, it's possible that the blockage is affecting multiple homes, so it's crucial to work with your neighbors to resolve the issue.

Clearing the Blockage

To clear a blocked drain outside, you'll need a few basic tools:

  • A drain snake or auger
  • A plunger
  • Baking soda and vinegar
  • Hot water
  1. Remove any visible debris from the drain cover and pipework.
  2. Use a drain snake or auger to break up any blockages in the drain.
  3. If the blockage is further down the drain, use a plunger to create suction and loosen the blockage.
  4. Pour baking soda and vinegar down the drain to help break down any grease or debris.
  5. Finally, pour hot water down the drain to rinse away any remaining blockages.
