Anyone south got a drain rod I can borrow? The drain below my down pipe has always been blocked and now the roof is done I tried to unblock it. Got as far as my hand could reach, even using the hose to try and loosen stuff but there's still an unspecified depth of crud/silt/stuff to shift before it's flowing.
I've had success in the past using a hose - the trick being to build up the pressure by wrapping a damp cloth around the drain entry (where you have shoved the hose), holding it down tight and opening the hose up to full blast.
