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
Wafra has independent homes, cooperative buildings, fields and storage for crops and dairy, with each dwelling having a simple kitchen, many built years ago. Floors are asphalt, concrete and gravel, with pipes running underground from kitchen to a single inspection chamber. Local cooking uses heavy oils and animal fats in high amounts, so grease deposits easily on old copper and steel pipe walls. We work from floor traps and tight passages using medium rods because line runs are short and sometimes awkward.
Wafra is in Ahmadi governorate, an agricultural cooperative zone near the Saudi border with farms, fields and rural housing.
Pipes in Wafra are older than in other urban areas, and grease buildup happens faster because interior diameters are smaller and metal walls are rougher.

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 Wafra
Yes, animal fat hardens and becomes rigid when it cools, so it sticks to pipe walls much harder than vegetable oil. Traditional Wafra cooking uses animal fat, so blockages are tougher and take more force to remove.
We start at the nearest floor trap in the yard or passage, and if water doesn't drain we coordinate with the neighbor because the inspection chamber is usually shared or on the boundary. Old Wafra houses sometimes share lines, so we check the entire run before saying the job is done.
