How does professional shower drain unblocking work?
Shower drains often become clogged by a combination of hair, soap residue, scale, or grease buildup in the pipes. A drain unblocker from Ontstoppen.nl Investigates the location of the blockage using professional equipment specifically designed for sanitary drains. This way, we not only address the symptoms but also eliminate the root cause. Depending on the severity and type of blockage, we choose from options including:
- Manual unblockingIf hair or soap scum is the culprit, a drain snake effectively removes the blockage. For example, a wire coil effortlessly removes clumps of hair and debris from the trap.
- High pressure cleaningFor stubborn deposits or grease residue, we use a powerful high-pressure unit to completely clean the pipework. Ideal when standard methods don't work.
- Camera inspection technologyUsing an advanced camera, we trace fractures, subsidence, or deep blockages that you cannot reach yourself.
- Specialist cleaning agentsIn combination with mechanical work, we remove biofilm, grease, and limescale safely and environmentally friendly without damaging your drain pipes.

Different types of shower drain blockages and our approach
Clogs occur in all kinds of shower installations, but the cause can almost always be traced back to one of these categories:
- Superficial blockages: Accumulated debris in the trap directly below the drain. For example: a clump of hair and soap that is visibly stuck.
- Deep pipe contamination: Over time, grease, limescale and shampoo residue form a hard layer in the pipework behind the siphon, often in older houses or apartments.
- Constructional causesPoorly installed drain pipes, subsidence or incorrect slope angles cause structural blockages that can usually only be resolved with professional tools.
- Foreign objectsThink of jewelry, children's toys, or plastic items that have accidentally disappeared down the drain. A camera inspection quickly reveals their location and ensures prompt removal.

What can you try yourself before calling a professional to unclog your shower?
You can first try removing loose hair, soap scum, and dirt from the shower drain with pliers, a plunger, or a drain snake. Avoid using chemical drain cleaners, as these can damage pipes and the environment, and often don't address the underlying cause. Run lukewarm water and try flushing stubborn dirt with a mixture of hot water and baking soda. If this doesn't work, do not apply any further pressure to the pipe to prevent damage.
