Preventing blockages
Of course what you really want is to prevent the blocked drain. The most important tip we can give is not to rinse anything down the sink, basin or toilet that doesn't belong there. You can prevent stubborn blockages in the kitchen, for example, by wiping leftover food off your plates before rinsing them with water. Wipe up grease from the pan with kitchen roll before you start washing up. In the bathroom it helps to clean it regularly and to remove hair from the shower trap on a daily basis. And it probably goes without saying, don't flush anything except toilet paper down the toilet.
