Blocked Drain

Anyone recommend someone in Belfast to look at / unblock a drain. Have tried plunging and sink unblocker etc but it's not working. More of a very slow drain than totally blocked.

My mother had the same problem with a kitchen drain. Before you call out someone to look at it why not try B&Q's drain cleaner:
B&Q One Shot Drain Cleaner
It's nasty stuff but well worth a tenner if it saves you having to pay a fortune to get in the professionals.Norn Iron Club Member 330

Glad I could help. Years ago my mother called out Dynarod who told her the problem was that fats from the kitchen sink outflow were mixing with washing powder/liquid from the washing machine outflow and congealing causing the pipe to become clogged up and the water to drain slowly. Every so often we use the B&Q stuff and it solves the problem.Norn Iron Club Member 330
