What causes a blocked drain?

Food scraps often clog kitchen drains. Bits of rice, pasta, or coffee grounds stick together in pipes. Oils and fats cool down and harden, forming stubborn blockages. In bathrooms, hair is a serial offender. It tangles up with soap scum to create thick clumps in shower or basin drains. Baby wipes and sanitary products flushed down toilets cause chaos too—they don’t break apart like toilet paper does.

Tree roots love growing into old pipes looking for water, especially around stormwater systems after rainstorms. Heavy rains carry debris into gutters and stormwater drains, causing backups. Grease build-up from washing machines can sneakily thicken over time in laundry drainpipes until water has nowhere to go but back up the line! It’s always something small that turns into big trouble fast!

What are the signs of a partially blocked or blocked drain?

Our experts also visit suburbs around Brisbane, for instance, South Maclean, Calamvale, Carindale, Carina, Bridgeman Downs and Thornlands. Additionally, other major suburbs in Brisbane.

Types of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains come in many forms, and each one has its own headaches. From kitchens to bathrooms, these clogs can disrupt daily life fast.

Shower Drain Blockage

Hair, soap, and conditioner build up fast in shower drains. These blockages cause water to drain slower over time. A smelly odour easily fills the bathroom from trapped gunk below. Using products like body wash or haircare often worsens this problem. 

We’ve all seen it—water pooling at our feet mid-shower. That’s a tell-tale sign of trouble brewing down the pipe! Our team knows how stressful blocked drains can be for Adelaide homes. With tools like hydrojet cleaners, we quickly clear stubborn clogs with minimal fuss.

Bathroom basin blockage

Soap scum and hair are the usual culprits for bathroom basin blockages. They clump together over time, forming stubborn plugs in the pipes. Slow-draining water and odd gurgling sounds are clear signs something’s wrong. Ignoring these can make the problem worse, leading to a fully blocked drain.

We’ve got tools like hydrojets and drain cleaners that cut through tough build-ups fast. Catching it early saves time and stress later on. A quick call to Adelaide plumbers for blocked drains can keep your basin flowing smoothly again!

Toilet Blockage

Toilet blockages can turn any day upside down. Blocked toilets often occur due to nappies, baby wipes, or sanitary products flushed down the drain. Even bulky items like excessive toilet paper can cause trouble. These clogs disrupt our plumbing and lead to unpleasant smells and rising water levels.

We quickly spot signs of a blocked sewer—water gets sucked back rapidly after flushing or doesn’t go down at all. Unpleasant odours linger near the toilet, making it impossible to overlook the issue! Toiletries should be limited to what’s safe for flushing to avoid creating chaos in storm water drains or pipes.

Laundry drain blockage

Hair, soap scum, and detergent buildup clog laundry drains quickly. Water may start pooling in the sink or floor drain after each wash. Gurgling noises can also be a warning sign of partial blockage.

We often see lint from clothes adding to the mess. Over time, this creates stubborn blockages that are hard to clear without help. Our Adelaide plumbers handle blocked drains professionally and get water flowing again fast!

Kitchen drain blockage

Grease and food scraps often clog kitchen drains. Fats, oils, and leftover bits of food build up over time. This turns into a sticky mess that blocks water flow. Slow draining sinks and bad smells are common signs. The gurgling sound we sometimes hear is another clue.

Overusing store-bought cleaners can damage pipes or worsen the problem. Instead, clearing the blockage quickly keeps things running smoothly. A professional from Adelaide blocked drains services can help stop small issues from turning big.

Stormwater drain blockage

Stormwater drains clog due to tree roots, dirt, garden waste, and rubbish. Heavy rainfall can make this worse. Blocked stormwater drains cause water to pool in yards or streets. Wastewater might also back up into your property if left unchecked.

Our Adelaide plumbers fix blocked drains fast. We clean debris and tackle invading roots with the right tools every time. Next up is how we can help you!

Blocked drains in your Adelaide home can lead to significant problems if not addressed promptly. Our team uses advanced camera technology to inspect your pipes thoroughly. This non-invasive method allows us to identify the exact cause of the blockage without any guesswork. We then provide a clear explanation and a fast, effective solution.

Drain Cleaning and Unblocking

Our state-of-the-art tools enable us to clean and unblock drains efficiently. High-pressure water jetting is one of our preferred methods, as it effectively removes stubborn clogs, ensuring your pipes are clear and functioning properly.

Drain Relining

Drain relining is a cost-effective, minimally invasive solution for repairing damaged pipes. This method involves inserting a resin-coated tube into the damaged pipe, which hardens to form a new lining. It’s a quick process that avoids the need for extensive excavation, restoring your pipes efficiently.

Excavation and Replacement

For severe blockages or damaged pipes that require more extensive work, our excavation and replacement services are the answer. Our team carefully excavates the affected area, removes the blockage, and installs new pipes to ensure smooth, long-lasting drainage.
