CAUSES OF BLOCKED DRAINS

blocked-drain

Blocked sewers or overflowing waste normally occur when there is a blockage within the drain, or the drain has collapsed on itself.

The primary cause of blocked drains in older properties is tree roots entering the pipes and seeking out moisture. In newer homes, common sources of blockages include women’s sanitary pads, paper towels and even certain types of thicker toilet paper.

We have dealt with our fair share of blocked drains throughout Melbourne over the years so don’t hesitate to give us a call if your drain is playing up.

OUR DRAIN UNBLOCKING SOLUTIONS

Gallant Plumbing has the know-how to locate the specific problem in your blocked drain, clear it and make your drain usable again. Our plumbers seek to identify the cause of the blocked drain as well as provide advice on how to avoid future blocked drains.

We combine our years’ of experience with the latest technology to deliver an unrivalled drain unblocking service, here in Melbourne. Using CCTV we are able to actually see where the problem lies and put a prevention plan in place to avoid any future blockages.

Look after your pipes by keeping a rubbish bin by the toilet for bulky items. Never flush them down the toilet. Not only is it better for the environment and our waterways, it will save you time and hassle unblocking a drain later.

When we attend to a blocked drain, our expert plumbers focus on:

1Locating the exact spot of the blocked drain
2Clearing the drain so it becomes usable ASAP
3Determining the reason why the drain became blocked and provide advice to reduce the chances of it happening again.

Blocked drains can be located, cleared and unblocked using

1A sewer machine to cut the roots
2A jet pressure unit to clean out the drains
3CCTV see literally see what the problem is and take the guesswork out of the job. It is also useful to record the condition of the problem area and make decisions about prevention work.

Our plumbers will always give you advice on the best options for replacement or repair
