Waste water flowing slowly from your sink is the first sign that there may be a problem with your drainage system. We rely on the drains from our homes on a daily basis but we never give them much thought until things go wrong. When waste water is not taken away from your sink quickly it is indicative of a blockage somewhere in the system. And if left to its own devices the blockage will only get worse.

You should contact a drain maintenance company at the first signs of slow flowing water from your sink. This is because they will be able to attend your property to diagnose the problem before it worsens. If the drain becomes blocked completely, water will not drain and there is a possibility that the drain may overflow. Overflowing drains can cause serious damage to a property and although you may be insured, the difficulties faced by such a situation mean that you should take action as soon as you notice a problem.

Drain maintenance companies can use jetting equipment to remove the clog. They direct high pressure water down the drain, which can dislodge the blockage, so it can be removed at an inspection point.
