Blocked Drain Plumber in Point Cook

Having a blocked drain every now is frustrating enough, but when it becomes a recurring issue it can drive you up the wall. There are a number of things that cause drain blockages to occur over and over. Luckily, Local Plumber Melbourne can provide solutions that will keep your drains clear for good.

Tree root growth is by far the most common cause of drains blocking on a regular basis. Here’s how it happens. Some types of trees in Point Cook have roots that are attracted to cracks in pipes. The roots will grow into these pipes and cause extremely stubborn blockages. When a blockage is caused by tree roots, we generally use a high pressure water jetter to blast them out of the pipes for good.

Another cause of drains getting blocked over and over is a cracked pipe. These cracks will collect waste materials from toilets, causing clogs that will keep on occurring until the drain is properly repaired. If this is happening in your home in Point Cook, we recommend use of our CCTV drain cameras or a complete drain replacement.

Luckily, some stubborn drain blockages are completely avoidable with a bit of common sense. You shouldn’t flush baby wipes or sanitary items down the toilet. They get stuck in the pipe and cause blockages that keep occurring, getting worse over time. You should also be careful that deodorising items and children’s toys don’t get flushed down the drain, as they can cause blockages that are very difficult to deal with.

When it comes to clearing persistent drain blockages, we like to use CCTV drain cameras to locate the exact cause of the problem in your Point Cook home. These devices allow us to find exactly what’s caused the blockage and how deep in the pipe it’s located.

We also use hydro jetters and electric eel to clear out blockages in Point Cook effectively and efficiently. Our hydro jetters can clear clogs that are occurring as deep as seventy metres from the entry point of the drain. Drain snakes are long, metal cables with a device on the end that tear stubborn blockages to shreds. When it is inserted into a drain, it uncoils and spins until it has completely cleared out your blockage.

We’ve got a strong reputation for a reason. We’ve got years of experience clearing blockages that other plumbers can’t for a fair price. We’re also fully licenced and qualified, so you know you can put your trust in us. When you notice blocked drains in your home, work with the best. Call us today on 0498 122 875 .
