Harpic Power Jet

Well the first review of this kind for me. Im breaking so many of my review virginities today. lol. Well I recently moved into a new house, one nearer the family. What a bright idea that was. Anyway when I moved into the new home every toilet and sink in the house was blocked up. I realy didnt fancy either putting my own hand down there or paying for a plumber. Thought I would try it myself with ordinary bleach. What a waste of money that was. I was just about to give up and call the plumber when I found this cleaner in my local shop. I thought I may as well give it a go. God knows I had tried everything else. Anyway when I got it home I gave it a whirl. I simply squeze ...  Read the complete review

Anybody know how much a plumber costs? I would guess at around fourty pounds for a call out (or more, depending on where you live), plus the time the job takes and this is usually at least an hour. That's about seventy pounds by my wreckoning. Then there's the time you have to take off work waiting for the plumber to arrive.'Yes, madam, I'll be there before 10am and it should only take ten minutes'. Six hours later you are still waiting. So, I saved myself almost sixty-five pounds this week and another day off work which adds up to around £100 if you're self employed as I am. Total saved by using this amazing product: £170. ...  Read the complete review

Where would we be without the humble plughole? That round aperture which sits patiently beneath the water in our sinks, baths and showers, modestly covered until the plug is pulled. Plugholes remain unpraised and unnoticed until the pipes beneath them become blocked. It is then that they come to our attention with much unfair cursing. After all it isn't the plughole's fault that soap (even the liquid variety) and hair accumulates until it rebels and shuts the lid. I have little trouble with my soakaways with the exception of my shower. The angle of the pipe beneath is of necessity shallow, although causing few problems. Normally a once a ...  Read the complete review

My shower was fitted for me about five years ago. It was fitted into one of those cupboards you find in the bedroom. Due to the position of the cupboard, the plumber had to run the waste out under the bedroom floor, and, as it turned out, no access to the u-bend and an almost straight pipe with not a lot of help from gravity. When it blocked for the first time, I was able to get some industrial strength acid from work, cleared the problem in no time! But it was dangerous! Now I've changed my job, I also had a new problem.....how do I clear the shower when it blocks? It's a regular problem, as my husband shaves in the shower. Browsing the shelves of my ...  Read the complete review

I had problems with water drainig from my bath- it was taking quite a while. I purchased Harpic power Jet (the one in the tin). I read the lable and everything seemed easy enough. I followed the instructions and now my bath plug is totally blocked, the water isn't moving at all. I've got bits of sludge coming up but nothing is going down. Considering the price and the promises on the tin, I'm very unhappy with the results. It has made the problem worse. ...  Read the complete review
