The headline may seem quite obvious but after the heatwave that we had, it should be no surprise that the following thunderstorm and heavy downpour of rain cause quite a few drains to block.
But it wasn’t just the huge amount of rain that fell, it was the top soil that gets washed away with it that causes the problems.
The heatwave dried out the top of the soil leaving it dry and crumbly. The organic matter which normally binds the soil together is non existent so when the rain does come, it clears a lot of this soil away with it.
This build up of soil can then easily block drain pipes which were already heading towards a blockage and because the drain gets blocked further down the pipe, it is not the work of a plunger. You need something stronger.
