Urinal Cleaning & Descaling
We provide expert urinal cleaning and descaling services, ensuring your facilities remain hygienic and free from blockages. Our professional team uses advanced techniques to remove limescale build up, prevent unpleasant odours, and maintain smooth drainage, keeping your urinals in optimal working condition for both commercial and public spaces.
Essential for Commercial and Retail Businesses
Some urinals operate without water, using chemicals to break down waste. While these chemicals are crucial for functionality, they can lead to problems if the system becomes blocked. For instance, uric scale can accumulate and clog the pipes more quickly than in water-based systems.
Traditional urinals use water to flush away waste, making them less prone to certain issues. However, they still require regular cleaning and maintenance over time. Whether you have waterless, traditional, or automatic urinals, all systems benefit from manual or high-pressure cleaning to keep the flow smooth.

Mechanical Spring Descaling – If your urinal pipes are partially or completely blocked by uric scale, our team is here to help. We utilize a mechanical spring to penetrate and break apart the scale build up, similar to the method used with drain rods in standard drainage systems. Our drainage engineers can efficiently insert the clearance spring into the waste or soil stack to tackle almost any solid blockage quickly and effectively.
High Pressure Water-Jetting
High-pressure water-jetting is a highly effective service we offer for urinal cleaning. This technique utilizes specialized equipment that propels water at exceptionally high pressures, making it ideal for clearing stubborn blockages and maintaining clean drainage systems. When urinals face issues such as slow drainage or unpleasant odours, water-jetting is often the most efficient solution.
During the process, our skilled drainage engineers direct a powerful stream of water into the urinal’s drainage system. This high-pressure water effectively dislodges debris, uric scale, and other waste build up that can obstruct flow. The force of the water not only clears existing blockages but also cleans the internal surfaces of the pipes, promoting better hygiene and functionality.
One of the significant advantages of high-pressure water-jetting is that it can reach deep into your drainage system, accessing areas that are otherwise difficult to clean. This thorough approach ensures that all remnants of waste and potential blockages are eliminated, preventing future problems.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Question
How to Get Rid of Urine Smell in Urinals?
To eliminate urine smells in urinals, start with a thorough cleaning using a disinfectant that targets bacteria. Regular maintenance, such as descaling and flushing the system, will also help. Additionally, consider using enzyme-based cleaners that break down organic matter and neutralize odours. Installing an effective drainage trap or deodorizing block can further help in controlling unpleasant smells.
What Can You Pour Down a Urinal to Unclog It?
To unclog a urinal, you can pour a mixture of hot water and baking soda followed by vinegar down the drain. This combination helps to dissolve minor blockages. For tougher clogs, a commercial drain cleaner specifically designed for urinals can be effective. However, always check the manufacturer’s guidelines to avoid damaging the plumbing.
What Causes Urinals to Block?
Urinals can block due to several factors, including the build up of uric scale, foreign objects, hair, or soap scum. In commercial settings, excessive use and inadequate maintenance can exacerbate these issues. Flushing habits, such as infrequent or inadequate flushing, may also contribute to drain blockages.
How Do You Remove Calcium Deposits from Urinals?
To remove calcium deposits from urinals, apply a descaling solution specifically designed for this purpose. Products containing phosphoric or hydrochloric acid can effectively dissolve these deposits. Apply the solution, let it sit for the recommended time, then scrub the area with a brush and rinse thoroughly with water. Regular maintenance and cleaning can prevent future build up.
