Blocked Drains

If you’ve got an emergency, call us immediately to book one of our experienced plumbers to
come and fix the issue.

What’s worse than a blocked drain or toilet in the house?

The mess and inconvenience is enough to drive most people crazy.

If you have a blocked drain or toilet, we can help clear the blockage and get things flowing again
quickly for you.

We use the latest hydrojet, CCTV cameras and marco to clear your drains entirely so the
problem is less likely to reoccur again in the future. A traditional drain cleaner uses a snake
(photo and confirm word) to clear the blockage but this is nowhere near as effective as a hydrojet
solution which blasts the blockage completely.

By completely removing the blockage, your drains will run freely like the day they were
installed. We are experts at fixing blockages in:

• Kitchen sinks

• Toilets

• Shower traps

• Stormwater drains

• Sewer main drain

If you’ve got a blocked drain and just need it fixed now and fixed properly, give us a call and
we’ll get a plumber to you ASAP.

Common causes of blocked drains
 

There are many causes of blocked drains, but one of the most common is cooking fat and oil.
This can be food solidifying in your drainpipes or grease from cooking. Its essential to dispose
of fats and oils properly because they can solidify in your pipes and cause blockages.

If you have a slow-running or blocked kitchen sink or bath waste pipe, it may be caused by a
build-up of greasy residue. Make sure you wipe up any excess food as soon as possible after
cooking, as this will make cleaning easier and reduce the risk of clogged drains.

Another common cause is food waste which has not been disposed of properly. This can include
eggshells, vegetable skins, or leftover meat products which contain bones or gristle. These items
should always be placed in the compost bin rather than down the sink as they will cause
blockages in your drainpipes.

​

Another cause of blocked drains is hair that goes down your shower drain and gets stuck inside
the pipe leading to your septic tank or sewage system. The hair is made up of keratin which does
not break down easily and can build up over time, causing a blockage that needs clearing by a
plumber.

You can also get drain blockages if you flush too much toilet paper down the toilet or if you use
too much grease when cooking. You might also have a problem putting things other than toilet
paper down the toilet, like sanitary pads, cotton buds, and nappies.

Identify the cause of the problem.

We do this by using a CCTV camera to inspect your drains. The camera sends images back to a
phone or tablet so we can see whats going on.

From there, we can assess the best method for clearing the blockage and get things flowing again
for you.

By using specialist Hydro jet equipment, you can be guaranteed that the blockage will be dealt
with quickly and effectively. It will clean your gutter in seconds and flush away any remaining
debris with high-pressure water.

If necessary, we will suggest a maintenance regimen of chemicals to keep build-ups of grease
and fat from solidifying and blocking your kitchen sink or hair from clogging your bathroom
sink or shower.

Our aim is to keep the water in your home flowing freely so you never have to worry about it
again.
