what causes blocked drains?
Tree Root Intrusion
Tree roots can grow into small cracks, joints and damaged sections of underground pipes. As they grow, they trap debris and restrict water flow, often causing severe or recurring blockages.
Grease, Fat & Oil Build-Up
Cooking grease, fats and oils can cool and solidify inside drain pipes. Over time, they trap food particles and debris, narrowing the pipe and slowing down water flow.
Hair & Soap Scum
Hair can combine with soap scum, shampoo residue and other bathroom products inside the pipe. These materials gradually form dense clumps that restrict drainage and can eventually cause complete blockages.
Foreign Objects & Sanitary Products
Wet wipes, sanitary products, paper towels, cotton buds and other unsuitable items can become lodged in pipework. They can create immediate blockages or combine with other debris over time.
Broken, Cracked or Collapsed Pipes
Cracked, damaged or collapsed pipes can restrict water flow and trap debris inside the drainage system. These issues often lead to recurring blockages and may require professional pipe repair or relining.
Stormwater & Debris Ingress
Leaves, dirt, sediment and garden debris can enter stormwater drains during heavy rainfall. As debris builds up, it can restrict water flow and increase the risk of flooding and water pooling.
