What can you try yourself before booking?
For simple or light clogs, you can try to unclog the drain yourself by:
- Using Abfluss-Reinigungsstäbe (drain cleaning sticks) from Migros or Jumbo to pull out hair and debris. You can buy 2 for under 10 CHF.
- Using a Pömpel (classical pump) on the drain to loosen the clog (available at Migros supermarket or online at Galaxus.ch, also under 10 CHF).
- Slowly pouring boiling water down the drain (do not use boiling water on ceramic toilets / WCs).
- Removing visible hair and gunk from the strainer or cover yourself.
Avoid pouring chemical drain cleaners into the pipe; they’re usually a waste of money, can damage pipes, and are bad for your health due to their toxic, volatile chemicals.
If those methods don’t help, the clog is likely deeper and it’s time to book a professional unclog.

What is your approach as a drain specialist?
I use the same simple, mechanical tools you can try at home – like Abfluss-Reinigungsstäbe and a Pömpel – but on a deeper level, so I can reach further clogs without damaging your pipes.
I never pour chemical drain cleaners into your plumbing, as they can damage the system, and I usually avoid opening or disassembling anything. Work is done only where it’s safe and necessary, so you get a professional unclog without extra risk – and I’m fully insured for this work, just in case.
Do you also replace shower heads or shower curtains?
Yes, for an extra +50 CHF each (shower head, shower tube, or curtain).

Who pays for drain unblocking in Zürich rentals?

Try DIY first with Abfluss-Reinigungsstäbe (Migros/Jumbo, <10 CHF) and Pömpel. Works for 70% of simple clogs. If no success after 15 mins, book professional – deeper clogs need specialist tools.
