Warning Signs of a Blocked Shower Drain
Don’t wait until water’s covering your bathroom floor. Watch for:
Water pooling around your feet — drainage should be instant, not a puddle
Slow-draining water — a clog is forming
Nasty odours — hair, soap, and grime rotting in your pipes
Gurgling noises — trapped air bubbling through blockages
Water backing up elsewhere — shower water appearing in your sink or toilet = serious issue
