Bleeding, clogging, or bursting: when your drain becomes blocked, it can be a frustrating and stressful issue. But don't worry, our expert plumbers in Melbourne are here to help you fix the problem quickly and efficiently.
What Causes Blocked Drains?
There are several reasons why your drain might be blocked. Hair, soap scum, grease, and other debris can accumulate in the pipes and cause blockages. Additionally, poor drainage systems, old or corroded pipes, and clogged manholes can also contribute to a blocked drain.
How to Fix a Blocked Drain
Fortunately, fixing a blocked drain is relatively straightforward. We recommend starting by clearing any visible debris from the pipe and then using a drain snake or plumber's auger to clear any blockages deeper in the pipe. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to use specialized equipment such as a hydro-jetter or drain cleaning chemicals.
