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
Shops and restaurants in Mirqab are very close together and drainage pipes are shared between two or three shops in the same building. Grease from frying, shawarma and vegetable cooking builds fast because shops run from dawn to night. Pipes are old and chambers sit under the street or the lane between buildings. We need to coordinate with the shop owner or the building manager to access the passage, and sometimes the chamber is sealed with stone or covered by pavement tiles from the street above.
Mirqab is a central commercial area in Kuwait governorate near the Central Market and Grand Mosque, with shops and restaurants in a mix of old and new buildings.
Shared lines between shops in Mirqab collect grease from several kitchens at once, so blockage happens suddenly and not gradually.

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 Mirqab
We ask if other shops have the same problem. One shop only means the block is in their kitchen. All shops means the blockage is in the shared line under the street or the lane. The second case needs the external chamber opened, not just the kitchen.
We work from the back kitchen away from customers, and a simple blockage takes about half an hour. If deeper we go to the chamber outside the shop, which may take another half hour or so.
