Fats, oils, and grease, known as “FOGs”, are one of the most common causes of blocked drains. All of that thick sludge seeps into your pipes and gradually builds up until nothing can get through.
Excess food scraps, coffee grounds, and scale buildup can also cause blockages in kitchen drains, while soap buildup, hygiene products, paper towels, and foreign objects are the main offender for bathroom drains.
Even if you adhere to proper drain care and educate your staff, you could still face blockages from scale and tree root intrusions.
Signs Your Norfolk Business Has a Clogged Drain
If there’s a blockage in your drains, you may hear strange gurgling sounds or notice foul odors. Drains will also take longer to empty, there could be frequent backups, and water may pool around the drains.
