There are many factors that contribute to  blocked Baths and here are the most common of them. The most common material that causes a blockage are a build up of hair or soap residue.  hair build up in the pipe can start by reducing flow then eventually cause a complete blockage

Other factors can contribute to causing a blocked Bath and these can be in different forms. Some examples are, build up of  lime scale, poorly fitted pipe or the wrong type or diameter of pipe work.
