Manual Drain Auger Clearing in Singapore

When this may be needed

• A plunger moves water but doesn't clear the choke.
• The bottle trap is clean but the sink still won't drain.
• A toilet is blocked by something solid but not deep.
• A shower drain is choked beyond the trap.
• Drain chemicals have not worked.

What the team does

The technician opens the nearest access point, such as the bottle trap or floor trap, or works through the toilet bowl with a toilet auger that protects the porcelain. The auger cable is fed in and turned until it meets the blockage, then worked through it or used to hook the material out. The pipe is flushed to check the flow, and the fitting is reassembled and checked for leaks.

Included in this price

• Opening the nearest access point
• Clearing the pipe with a hand or toilet auger

Limits & price factors

Blockages beyond the reach of a hand auger are cleared with a powered snake, from $130. Main stack blockages in HDB blocks are the town council's responsibility.

The price starts from $100. Blockages far down the pipe, hard deposits and fittings with poor access take longer.
