There is nothing more inconvenient or smelly than a blocked drain. Blocked Drain Melbourne offers blocked drain clearing services using either a high pressure water jetter or electric eel.

Sometimes blockages will reoccur. For this Blocked Drain Melbourne plumbers will use a CCTV drain camera to locate the cause of the problem and will use the appropriate solution once the problem is isolated.

Whether the problem is with a basin, shower waste, blocked toilet, drain grate or stormwater blockage, Blocked Drain Melbourne plumbers are experienced and trained to quickly locate and unblock any drainage clog.

Detecting blocked drains

Early detection of a clogged drain will drastically reduce the work involved on fixing the problem. Early detection will save you the time and expense the plumber will take to unblock the drain.

Signs to look and listen for include a smelly drain grate, a gurgling or gulping sound coming from the floor waste or toilet when water is in use. Another simple sign is whether the water level in the toilet is dropping below or rising above the normal water levels. Another sign to watch for is whether the drain outside the house is overflowing after the washing machine has been in use. If the floor waste is overflowing during a shower, this too may indicate a drain blockage.

If you do suspect a partially blocked drain, do not waste time. Call Blocked Drain Melbourne specialists to have it cleared as soon as possible.

Preventing blocked drains

In Australia, tree roots are the most common cause of blocked drains. During the hottest months of summer, trees are drawn to the condensation that forms on the outside of underground water and sewage pipes. These roots will eventually break through the pipes and cause a stormwater or sewer blockage. When Blocked Drain Melbourne plumbers clear a blocked drain we identify which trees are most likely the cause of the problem. As a general rule trees and plants should be planted as far away as possible from sewer and stormwater drainage lines.

It is also important to be careful what you put down your sinks. You should never dispose of fat and grease down a sink drain as the fat and grease will stick to the inside of drains. Excessive loo paper is a common cause of a blocked toilet. Hair can cause clogged or blocked drains and should be prevented from going down your shower waste or vanity basin. Cement or plaster from DIY repairs will also prevent water flowing smoothly through your sewer and may cause a blocked drain.
