Can you help with blocked drains?
locked drains are one of the most common plumbing problems we deal with. A blockage may start with slow-draining water, unpleasant smells, gurgling noises or water backing up through another fixture.
The important thing is finding out why the drain is blocked rather than simply getting the water moving again. Depending on the problem, we can inspect the drainage system and work out whether the blockage is being caused by built-up waste, tree roots, damaged pipework or another underlying issue.
If the same drain keeps blocking, there is often something more going on than a one-off obstruction. Tree roots, ageing pipes, damaged sections of drainage, incorrect pipe falls and recurring build-up can all contribute to repeated blockages.
This can be particularly relevant around established areas such as Gosnells and Armadale where some homes have older plumbing and mature trees around the property. A plumber can investigate the cause and recommend a more permanent solution rather than repeatedly clearing the same blockage.
