Blocked sinks can cause real disruption in kitchens, staff areas and facilities, leading to downtime and unnecessary costs.
Here are three simple ways to keep things running smoothly:
1) Put food waste in the bin, not the sink
2) Let cooking oil cool, then bin it
3) Use drain cleaners regularly to stop build-ups before they start
A few small changes can make a big difference to your business and help you avoid costly repairs later on.

Autumn Drain Care Matters
Did you know?
· Around 80% of blockages in autumn are caused by leaves and debris
· Blocked drains can increase the risk of flooding by up to 50% during heavy rain
That’s why proactive maintenance is so important this season. It helps to:
· Prevent blockages from leaves and debris
· Reduce the risk of flooding
· Protect your property ahead of winter
Our expert engineers are here to keep your drains clear and your property protected
🔥 BBQ Season Reminder: Protect Your Drains! 🔥
Grilling is great — but what you do after can damage your plumbing and drains
Here’s what many don’t realize:
• Hot grease cools and hardens in pipes — major cause of clogs.
• Food scraps stick and build up, especially with grease.
• Ash & charcoal rinse water? That sludge can wreck your system.
Here’s what you should be doing:
• Cool & trash grease
• Wipe pans before washing
• Bag & bin cold ash
• Use a sink strainer
Don’t let a great BBQ turn into a costly drainage issue this summer!
Summer Heat = Higher drainage risk to your property
As temperatures climb, your drainage infrastructure can face increased stress. At Metro Rod, we support our clients with the most common hot-weather drainage issues:
🛁 Slow-clearing shower drains: Common in leisure facilities and staff washrooms due to residue build-up.
💨 Foul odours: Heat accelerates bacterial growth in stagnant drains, affecting tenant and customer experience.
🔧 Leaking pipes: Expansion and contraction of materials compromise seals, leading to water damage.
🪨 Cracked underground pipes: Ground movement from dry soil can cause serious structural issues.
🌱 Root intrusion: Tree roots exploit weakened pipework, leading to blockages and costly repairs.
Proactive maintenance now can prevent disruption later.
