What we fix

Toilet blocked in Hove? Here’s how we sort it.

We start at the pan and work along the pipe until we find the blockage. If it is further down, in the soil stack or the drain outside, we deal with that on the same visit.

  • Pans, traps and soil pipes cleared
  • Macerator and pumped toilets cleared, repaired or replaced
  • Shared soil stacks in converted houses cleared
  • Flush valves, fill valves and leaking pan seals renewed
  • Drains outside checked if the toilet is not the cause

Local knowledge

Blocked toilets in Hove homes

In Aldrington, the streets around Portland Road often called Poets’ Corner, and the terraces near Hove station, many houses were built around 1900 with one toilet. Where that is still the case, a blockage is urgent. Tell us on the call if it is the only toilet in the property.

Converting houses into flats meant adding bathrooms where there was no easy fall to the drain. Some basement flats and loft rooms in Hove use a macerator toilet that pumps waste up and away. They block easily with wipes, cotton buds or too much paper, and limescale from our hard water can stop the blades turning. We clear and descale them, and replace the pump if it has failed.

In a converted house, several toilets often share one soil stack. If the toilet in the flat below yours bubbles or rises when you flush, the stack or the drain at the bottom is likely blocked, not your pan.

Hove has holiday flats and short lets too, and guests flush things regular residents would not. If you manage a short let and the toilet blocks during a stay, we can clear it and tell you the cause so you can warn the next guests.

Questions

Blocked toilet in Hove? Common questions

Often, yes. Most macerator faults are a blockage, a jammed blade or a failed switch. We clear and test it, and if the pump itself has failed we tell you the options before replacing it.
