what causes blocked drains?

Understanding the common causes of blocked drains can help prevent costly plumbing problems. From tree roots and grease build-up to damaged pipes and debris, our drainage specialists can identify the cause and restore proper flow.

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 replacement.

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.

Our 20+ year old Rinnai instant gas hot water system stopped working. Dylan and his team were the first to respond to my hipages job request and very fairly priced. My system needed replacing he gave me a few models to choose from, in the end I got another Rinnai which was compatible with my existing temp controllers in the house. Had my hot water going within a few hours. Very happy with his work.
