Signs to Look Out For
All sorts of items can cause a blocked drain—whether it’s food waste, hair, soap, leaves or soil. Whatever is causing the blockage, the signs are often the similar. You should look out for water taking longer to drain than usual, as well as unpleasant odours coming from the drain.
If you’re hearing a gurgling sound when water is draining or notice water backing up into other drains on your property, contact us on
0417 640 758. We’ll complete a thorough pipe inspection to uncover the source of the blockage before it causes serious damage and becomes expensive to fix.
Frequently Asked Questions
I recently had my drain unblocked but now it is blocked again. Why?
If a drain blocks again shortly after being cleared, there may be an underlying issue such as tree roots growing into the pipe or a crack in the drainage line. Clearing the blockage removes the obstruction, but further inspection may be required to identify and repair the original cause.
What are the most common causes of blocked drains?
Blocked drains are often caused by grease, food scraps, hair, soap residue and foreign objects entering the pipes. Over time these materials accumulate and restrict water flow. Tree roots can also grow into underground pipes and eventually cause serious drainage problems that require professional clearing.
Can a blocked drain be cleared on the same day?
In many cases a blocked drain can be cleared during the first visit using specialised equipment such as electric drain machines or high-pressure water jetters. However, if pipe damage or root intrusion is discovered, additional repairs may be required to prevent the blockage from returning.
