Kitchen signs
When grease isthe cause.
A grease blockage behaves in a way nothing else does.
01
It drains, then comes back
Run the tap lightly and it goes down; fill the bowl to wash up and the water comes back and stands. The run is narrowed, not closed, and that is exactly what grease does, leaving a small channel in the middle.
02
One bowl affects the other
Empty the right bowl and the water rises in the left. Both share one trap and one branch, so the blockage sits past the point where they meet, not in either strainer.
03
The washer backs into the sink
A dishwasher or a washing machine on the same branch pushes out a slug of hot water at once. If the sink rises while it drains, the branch cannot take it and grease has narrowed it.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Villas in Ali Sabah Al-Salem sit near the seashore near Ali Sabah Al-Salem Co-op, and most kitchens face the outdoor yard. Copper and metal pipes suffer from salt and corrode inside, so grease sticks to rough rust patches. Newer villas use plastic PVC pipes, but grease does not pass automatically even on a smooth pipe. Main lines run under the driveways and yards.
Ali Sabah Al-Salem sits in Ahmadi governorate on the coast, an area of villas and flats near the seashore and the co-op.
Kitchen pipes in coastal villas in Ali Sabah Al-Salem may contain salt deposits inside, which speeds up grease buildup on the walls.

How it works
From the trap tothe branch.
Four steps, all under the sink, with nothing opened up.
We drop the trap into a bucket
The trap is the first thing we open, and it tells us most of the story. If the grease has gathered only there, the branch beyond it is usually sound and the job ends at that point.
The snake goes into the branch
The small electric snake enters at the branch mouth and works in on a flexible cable. Turning it scrapes the pipe wall, instead of punching one narrow hole through the middle of the grease.
We bring the scrapings out
What comes off goes into the bucket rather than down the line, because a pushed slug of grease lodges at the first change of direction and becomes a bigger problem outside the house.
We refit and test it full
The trap goes back, both bowls are filled and released together in front of you. Testing with a real volume is what proves the bore is back, not a thin run from the tap.
Common questions
Questions about Kitchen drain unclogging in Ali Sabah Al-Salem
Yes, salt corrodes metals from inside and creates a rough surface. Grease grips that rough surface harder. If you are near the sea, kitchen unclogging may be more necessary than in inland areas.
Odour comes from decomposing grease and debris, not from salt. But salt traps grease and prevents it draining, so the smell gets stronger. Unclogging removes the grease and debris and eliminates the odour.
