What blocks toilet unblockings in Sham Shui Po
Excess tissue paper / wet wipes (most common)
Hair build-up at trap
Foreign objects (kid's toy, tampon, dental floss)
Partial-flush habit (insufficient water pressure to flush)
Sham Shui Po building patterns we see
1960s clay pipe corrosion + roughness traps debris
Restaurant grease leaching into shared mains over 30 years
Tile-on-tile bathroom conversions stacking debris-catching joints
Subdivided unit (劏房) extra fittings creating extra failure points
How we clear it
Method
