Addressing these issues properly helps protect your plumbing system and gives you confidence that the problem will not return. If you notice signs of a blockage, reaching out for professional help is the best way to keep your drains healthy and your property protected.
FAQs
Everything You Need To Know
What causes blocked drains?
Blocked drains are usually caused by a build-up of everyday materials like grease, food scraps, hair and soap scum. In outdoor drains, tree roots and dirt can invade pipes, restricting water flow. Over time, these blockages harden and create stubborn clogs that everyday plungers cannot remove. Identifying the cause is important, as it guides the most effective method of clearing the blockage and preventing future issues.
How do I know if my drain is blocked?
Common signs of a blocked drain include slow-draining sinks, toilets that overflow or gurgle, unpleasant smells, and water pooling around drains. In severe cases, you may notice multiple drains backing up at once, which usually indicates a deeper blockage in the main sewer line. If you see these symptoms, it is best to call a professional before the problem worsens.
Can I unblock a drain myself?
Simple blockages can sometimes be cleared with a plunger or a mixture of hot water and mild detergent. However, chemical drain cleaners can damage pipes and are not always effective. For stubborn or recurring blockages, professional tools such as drain cameras and jetting equipment are required. Attempting to fix the problem yourself without the right equipment may only provide temporary relief.
