Causes of smelly drains

Do you have trouble with a drain that stinks? There are various reasons for this. Let's take a look at the most common causes.

Accumulated dirt
Another common reason for a smelly kitchen drain is accumulated dirt. Dirt and food remnants go through the sink all day long. If a sink stinks, this is often because of accumulated dirt. The deposits grow and attract bacteria. They produce the unpleasant smells.

Hair and skin grease
If the shower drain stinks, this is because of a similar problem. Soap and hair, skin grease and toothpaste stay stuck in the pipes. Bath products also cause deposits in the pipes. Dirt, grease and limescale build up and attract bacteria. That produces a smelly shower trap

You can solve these smells yourself by using the right products. Below we tell you more about that.
