Blocked Drain in Luxembourg? Common Causes & How We Fix Them
Why Drains Get Blocked in Luxembourg
Blocked drains in Luxembourg are one of the most common home emergencies we handle. Here are the top causes and how our team fixes them.
Top 5 Causes of Blocked Drains
- Grease & fat buildup — Kitchen drains are the #1 culprit. Cooking oil solidifies in pipes over time.
- Hair & soap scum — Bathroom drains accumulate hair and soap residue, creating stubborn blockages.
- Tree root intrusion — Common in areas like Hesperange, Strassen, and Bertrange where older houses have garden trees near sewer lines.
- Foreign objects — Wet wipes, sanitary products, and children's toys cause toilet blockages.
- Pipe deterioration — Older homes in Luxembourg City and Bonnevoie may have corroded or collapsed pipes.
How We Fix Blocked Drains
High-Pressure Water Jetting
Our primary tool for clearing blockages. A high-pressure water jet (up to 200 bar) cuts through grease, roots, and debris without damaging your pipes.
CCTV Drain Inspection
We insert a camera into your drains to see exactly what's causing the blockage. You receive a video report showing the problem and the solution.
Preventive Maintenance
Regular drain cleaning prevents emergency blockages. We recommend annual maintenance for older properties in Luxembourg.
How Much Does Drain Cleaning Cost?
- Basic drain unblocking: €150–€300
- High-pressure jetting: €300–€600
- CCTV inspection included: free with jetting service
