Why Fast Drain Unblocking Matters

A blocked drain is more than just an inconvenience — it can lead to serious property damage, foul odours, health risks, and expensive repairs if left untreated. Acting quickly with a trusted local expert ensures that the issue is resolved before it escalates.

At Vikings Building Solutions, we understand the urgency. Our emergency drain unblocking service in Cheltenham is designed to deliver rapid response, expert diagnosis, and long-lasting solutions — giving you peace of mind when you need it most.

What Causes Blocked Drains in Cheltenham?

Blocked drains are one of the most common property issues we see. Typical causes include:

  • Fat, oil & grease build-up – common in kitchens and restaurants

  • Wet wipes & sanitary products – a leading cause of toilet blockages

  • Tree root intrusion – especially in older clay pipe systems

  • Collapsed or misaligned drains – due to ground movement or age

  • Silt, leaves & debris – after heavy rainfall

If left untreated, blockages can lead to structural damage, unpleasant odours, and costly repairs.
