How to unblock a manhole

There are times that things that block the pipes are found under the waste removal system and in such cases; you need to open the manhole to clear the blocked manhole Chingford. You have to check to see if there is any soil or vent pipe that comes into the bathroom. You should follow it to the ground floor while looking where you can find the manhole cover. There are two types of the manholes that are found in the home. There is water manhole with a foul water manhole. The surface water manhole can collect the rainwater away of the gutters and the foul water collects the water that comes from the homes. You are able to know which type of the manhole you are dealing with through the smell. A manhole cover is normally heavy and you have to be careful while taking it away.
If you are yet to know which manhole to clear, you can use the dye in the toilet or in the sink and the dye will show you which manhole that has to be cleared. You should then get the meter long flexible rods which you may push in the pipes towards your house. If you are not able to see the hole in a clear way, you should poke around using the first length rod you have. When you got the first length in the pipe, you can then screw the other one at the time while pushing them in the pipes. You need to be able to feel the blockage and you can prod it until it has broken up. When this fails, you should turn to the rubber plunger that you shod screw in the end of drain rods. You can then push it in the pipes and then you can use it like a regular plunger. This has to remove the blocked manhole Chingford.
