Drains Company sells hair catchers, sink strainers, plugs, drain snakes, plungers, floor trap covers and shower grates for Singapore homes. Size, material and the drain each product fits are listed on every product page.
A drain part is only useful if it fits the drain you have. We list the facts that decide that, so you can check before you buy.
Size, material and the drain each product is made for come from the manufacturer's listing. Sizes are the maker's stated sizes, often in inches, so measure your drain in millimetres. If a measurement is not published, we say so and do not guess.
Hair in the shower, scraps in the kitchen sink, a missing bath plug and a smelly floor trap are different jobs. Each category page explains what to measure and what to look for.
Some hair catchers and covers lie on top of the drain. Others drop into it. The product page says which, because the measurement you need is different for each.
For a blockage we sell plungers, drain snakes and drain brushes you work by hand. We do not sell caustic drain cleaners.
Every order is sent with a tracked courier from overseas warehouses, mostly in the United States and Europe. Delivery is free on orders over $150 and a flat $20 under that.
Not what you expected? Send it back within 14 days in resaleable condition for a full refund, on top of your protection under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act 2003.
A starting point in each part of the range. Compare the rest by size, material and fit on the shop page. Free delivery across Singapore on orders over $150.
Mesh, rims, seals and fittings, shown in the makers' own photos. Sizes and materials are on each product page.
Use a ruler or tape measure and work in millimetres. Measure straight across the inside of the drain opening. If you are replacing a grate, strainer or plug, also measure across the outside of the old one. Write both numbers down and compare them with the sizes on the product page. Drains are not all one size, so measure yours before you order.
An over-the-drain catcher is a flat or domed cover that lies on top of the grate. It only needs to be wider than the drain, and you can see when it needs emptying. An in-drain catcher drops into the outlet, so it stays out of sight, but it has to match the inside diameter of your drain. The product page says which type each one is.
A plunger pushes and pulls water against a blockage, so it suits a soft clog close to the fixture. A drain snake is the better tool when hair is caught on something inside the pipe, or when the blockage sits further along than a plunger can reach. If neither one shifts it, or the blockage keeps coming back, stop and call a licensed plumber.
No. We sell tools, not caustic chemicals. For a blocked sink, shower or bath we sell plungers, drain snakes and drain brushes.
A floor trap holds a little water, and that water blocks sewer air. If the floor trap is rarely used the water can dry out, and the smell comes through. Pouring a jug of water down it refills the trap. A silicone cover lies over the floor trap, and an odour seal insert sits inside it, to help keep smells and insects from coming up between uses. If the smell is strong or keeps coming back, call a licensed plumber.
Products that sit in or over an existing drain, replace a plug or strainer, clear a blockage, or connect an appliance hose to an existing outlet are things a householder can use. In Singapore, fixed plumbing and sanitary work must be done by a licensed plumber. That covers installing or altering wastes, traps, floor traps and shower grates connected to the drain line.
Yes. We deliver to addresses across Singapore. Delivery is free on orders of $150 or more and a flat $20 under that.
Send it back within 14 days of delivery, in resaleable condition with its packaging and fittings, and we refund the price you paid including standard delivery. For a change of mind return the item must be unused, because a used plunger, drain snake or hair catcher cannot be resold. That is on top of your protection under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act 2003 if anything arrives faulty.
A drain part has one job, and it only does that job if it fits. A hair catcher that is too small slides off the grate. A plug that is a few millimetres out will not hold water. This guide covers how to measure, which product suits which problem, and when the job belongs to a licensed plumber.
Use a ruler or tape measure and work in millimetres. Measure straight across the inside of the drain opening. That is the inside diameter of the outlet. If you are replacing a grate, strainer or plug, measure across the outside of the old one too. Write both numbers down.
Then check them against the product page. Sizes there are the maker's stated sizes, and makers often give them in inches, so convert before you compare. Drains come in several common sizes and older homes can have odd ones, so measure your own and do not assume.
Over the drain. These are flat or domed covers that lie on top of the shower or bath drain. They only need to be wider than the drain opening, so the fit is forgiving. You can see the hair collect and lift it off.
Inside the drain. These drop into the outlet. They sit out of sight and do not move underfoot, but they have to match the inside diameter of your drain. Measure carefully for this type.
Either kind only works if you empty it. Clear it before water starts to pool around your feet.
A sink strainer sits in the kitchen sink outlet and catches food scraps. A basket strainer drops into the outlet, so measure the inside of the hole. A flat mesh strainer rests on top and needs to be wider than the hole.
For a replacement plug, measure the plughole, or the old plug across its widest point. Basins, kitchen sinks and baths often take different sizes, so measure each one.
When a plunger works. A plunger moves water back and forth against a blockage. It works best on a soft clog close to the fixture, with enough water in the sink or bowl to cover the rubber cup. Cover the overflow hole with a wet cloth so the pressure goes down the pipe.
Cup or flange. A cup plunger has a flat rim that seals against a flat surface, so it suits sinks, baths and shower floors. A flange plunger has an extra rubber sleeve that folds out of the cup and sits in the toilet outlet. Use the flange type for toilets, and keep a separate plunger for the kitchen sink.
When a drain snake is better. Hair catches on the fittings inside a shower or basin drain, and a plunger will not pull it free. A drain snake goes down the pipe, hooks the hair and brings it back up. It also reaches further along the pipe than a plunger can.
We sell tools, not caustic chemicals. You will not find chemical drain cleaners here.
A long flexible brush cleans the build-up you can reach: the plughole, the overflow slot and the first stretch of pipe. Check the length and the diameter on the product page before you order.
A floor trap is the drain in the floor of a bathroom or kitchen. It holds a little water, and that water stops sewer air coming back into the room. When a floor trap is rarely used, the water can dry out and it starts to smell. Pouring a jug of water down it refills the trap.
A silicone cover lies flat over the floor trap. An odour seal insert sits inside it. People use both to help keep smells and insects from coming up between uses. Measure across the grating for a cover, and the inside of the outlet for an insert.
For a grate, measure the length and width of the old grate and the size of the outlet underneath, then check the size and material on the product page. Lifting out a loose grate and dropping in one of the same size is simple. A grate that is fixed to the drain line is a different job, covered below.
Measure the run from the back of the appliance to the existing outlet, following the path the hose will take, and allow some slack so the hose does not kink. Check the hose diameter and the end fittings against your appliance. Your appliance manual gives the longest drain hose the pump can handle, so read that before you buy an extension.
Some problems are not a tool job. Call a licensed plumber if a blockage keeps coming back, if there is a sewage smell, or if several fixtures back up at the same time. Those are signs of a problem further down the line than a household tool can reach.
The same goes for anything that means cutting into, moving or connecting fixed pipework. In Singapore, fixed plumbing and sanitary work must be done by a licensed plumber.
Public sewers are PUB's responsibility. A blockage in a shared pipe or common area of an HDB block is usually for the Town Council, so check before you pay for private work.
Name the problem. Pick the category. Measure the inside of the drain opening, and the outside of the part you are replacing, in millimetres. Check the size, the material and the drain it fits on the product page. Sizes are the maker's stated sizes, often in inches, so convert before you compare. Then check the price, in Singapore dollars, and the delivery cost.
Measure first, buy the part that fits, and leave fixed plumbing to a licensed plumber. Every product page here lists size, material and fit so you can decide before you order, and you have 14 days from delivery to change your mind.
