Mistakes that make the blockage worse

Forcing the snake in blind

Pushing the snake without knowing the blockage position risks piercing the pipe at a bend

Wrong snake length

A snake shorter than the blockage distance stops short and gives a false sense of clearance

Stopping at rotation only

Rotating without pulling the obstruction out pushes it deeper or breaks it up temporarily only

Skipping the after-clear inspection

Closing the job without a post-snake camera leaves cracks or deposits that re-block the line soon

Before you call: what to check first

01

Identify the affected drain

Is one drain blocked or several? Multiple blockages point to the main line, not a single fitting

02

Stop using the drain now

Running taps or appliances over a live blockage raises water level and extends the damage area

03

Do not pour chemicals first

Caustic cleaners do not dissolve solid blockages and pool in the line, posing a risk to the technician

04

Locate the access point

Know where the nearest inspection cover or clean-out is to speed up access to the blocked line

What decides the price

No fixed rate applies; these factors shape the quote for each individual case

Blockage position and depth

A distant or deep blockage needs a longer snake and more effort to clear

Type of obstruction inside the pipe

Congealed grease or roots take more passes to clear than sand or hair accumulation

Access to the pipe

Available clean-outs reduce effort; their absence requires finding an alternative entry point

Time of the call

Calls during peak hours or late night differ in cost from standard working hours

Property type and use

A commercial building or restaurant drain network is more complex than a residential house line

Common questions

Questions about drain snake unblocking

+965 9668 4964

When is a drain snake the right choice rather than high-pressure jetting?

A snake suits a solid localised blockage such as compacted hair or a soap lump. High-pressure jetting suits grease coating along the pipe or heavy deposits in long lines. The camera inspection before work decides which method fits the situation.

Can a drain snake damage older PVC pipes?

A flexible snake does not harm pipes when a technician who knows the line resistance operates it. The real risk is forcing it through a tight bend without prior knowledge of the pipe route. The pre-work camera shows bends and any fragile sections.

Why did the blockage return a week after the drain snake cleared it?

A quick return usually means the root cause was not resolved: either a grease layer on the pipe wall was not fully removed, or the pipe itself has a crack or displacement that restricts flow. The post-snake camera reveals this type of problem immediately after the work is done.

Can the line be snaked from the outdoor inspection chamber rather than from inside the house?

Yes, and access from an outdoor inspection chamber is often faster and less disruptive to the household. It depends on where the blockage sits and how the line runs. The camera confirms the best entry point before the snake is inserted.

Does drain snake unblocking remove the odour as well as the blockage?

Removing the solid obstruction restores flow but does not automatically remove odour. If the smell comes from a dry trap, refilling it with water is enough. If it comes from grease coating the pipe wall, the line may need pressure cleaning after the snake work.
