What is sewer unblocking and why is it so important?
Drain unblocking involves removing blockages in the sewer system, restoring the smooth flow and functioning of plumbing fixtures and pipes. Throughout the Netherlands, pipes in homes and businesses can become clogged due to a buildup of grease, soap scum, toilet paper, hair, or even tree roots and sand from outside. If you notice that the water in your sink, shower, or toilet isn't draining properly, chances are you have a sewer blockage. Drain unblocking prevents unpleasant odors, leaks, flooding, and expensive repairs to your home or business.
- Prevent damage to the home and pipes: Clogged drains can cause leaks and even damage foundations.
- Simple maintenance extends lifespan: Regular unblocking keeps the sewer clean and prevents expensive repairs.
- Healthy living environment: Accumulated waste creates odors and attracts vermin; quick unclogging keeps your home fresh.

The most common causes of a clogged drain
Sewer blockages have various causes. Sometimes the problem is localized, for example, in a siphon, but there are also situations where the main sewer in or around your home becomes blocked. Factors that contribute to blockages:
- Accumulation of dirt and grease: Food residues, frying fat or coffee grounds are difficult to flush away and clog pipes.
- Hair and toilet paper: Especially in the bathroom and toilet, accumulations of hair, wet wipes and excess toilet paper occur.
- Tree roots and sand: Outside the home, roots or soil easily penetrate old and leaky pipes.
- Outdated or sunken sewerage: Sinking ground or old stoneware pipes pose an increased risk of blockages; we inspect these professionally.
Specialist techniques and tools for unblocking sewers
We use modern technologies and tools recognized by authorities such as ISSO and NEN. This guarantees a permanently and safely clean drain.
- Mechanical spring machine: Breaks down dirt buildup so pipes can be repaired and reused.
- High pressure drain cleaning device: Dissolves even the most stubborn blockages by injecting powerful pressurized water.
- Camera inspections: We use an inspection camera to locate and assess the problem, even deep in the sewer.
- Environmentally friendly drain cleaners: Biological cleaners that protect pipes and are safe for the environment.
Unblocking a sewer: Recognize typical signals and intervene in time
Recognizing blockage signals is essential to prevent damage. Note:
- Slowly draining water: In the sink, shower, toilet or wash basin, the water level increases or even remains completely stagnant.
- Gurgling sounds from the drain: This usually indicates air bubbles that are unable to escape properly.
- Sewage smell in the house: A clear indication of stagnant water or a leaking sewer.
- Recurring blockages: Is the same spot regularly clogged? Investigating structural problems is then necessary.

Frequently asked questions
How do you know if your sewer is clogged?
A clogged drain is often noticeable by gurgling sounds from the drain, a stench in your home, or water that doesn't drain properly in your bathroom, toilet, or kitchen. Sometimes water even backs up from the drain. At Loodgieters Kwartier, we often see this caused by a buildup of grease, toilet paper, wipes, or limescale.
You can try to dislodge the blockage with a plunger or spring, but specialized sewer cleaning is usually required. Our certified technicians use modern inspection cameras and high-pressure units to pinpoint the exact cause and resolve it immediately. This ensures fast and lasting results.
