Shower doesn't drain but plumber says there is no blockage?
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.16 PM
I live in a block of new build flats and my shower doesn't drain when used. The plumber has put a camera along the pipe and it reaches to the stack (?) without seeing any reason for a blockage. I can't use drain unblocker as the pipe from the plug is horizontal so it just sits in the plug hole, same with soda crystals etc. Can someone help me as my landlord says I just have to live with it but it's just getting worse! Thank you

Could be a blockage in the stack itself

it is very likely that waste pipe is run incorrectly ie it runs uphill.
