rodding of drain pipe inside the premises, limited by the drain trap Explanation: This merely an amateur suggestion, I am not familiar with these tasks in English. However, it might lead you onto the right track, and you can refine the wording. |

unclogging of own drain to drain trap Explanation: This is a suggestion based on 30+ years of living in various houses in the U.S. I looked up vannlås, though, at Ordnett, just to be sure, since we just usually call it a trap. Unclogging doesn't mean the exact same thing as staking, but unless they care about the method, I think unclogging is the most commonly used term for the operation. I also thought it was better to use "own" earlier in the sentence, syntax-wise. |
