What is a "blockage"?
A blockage is an obstruction or clog that prevents the normal flow of something, such as water, gas, or air, through a pipe, channel, or passage. Blockages can occur in plumbing systems, drains, sewer lines, or even in ventilation systems, often causing problems like slow drainage, backups, or reduced efficiency. These obstructions can be caused by various factors, such as debris buildup, grease, tree roots, or foreign objects. Clearing a blockage typically involves removing the material causing the obstruction to restore normal flow.
