Blocked drains are common household problems for many homeowners. Ignoring common signs of a blocked drain may lead to fatal plumbing tragedies like a pipe burst. Therefore, you should first understand the exact cause of blocked drains. These causes include:
Build up
Foreign objects
Many non-biodegradable objects, such as wet wipes or even small toys, may get stuck in your drains, which can cause blockage.
Growth of the trees
Sometimes, the roots of the trees start growing inside the pipe for moisture. These ever-increasing roots can block the water from passing through, leading to backed-up water and blockage.
Waste disposal
Pouring oily, greasy and other inappropriate substances down the drain too can cause blockage.
Blocked Drain cleaning Perth
The Drain Surgeon Plumbing and Gas carry the correct mechanical equipment in their vehicles to clear internal and external drain blockages. Many blocked drains plumbers in Perth may only use a plunger to clear your drain. While this may seem like a cheaper option it is also only a temporary solution as it only moves the problem further down your drain. The mechanical equipment that we use will cut away and remove whatever may be causing the blockage providing a longer term, sometimes permanent solution. We are able to carry out camera inspections of your drains and locate where your current and potential problem areas are. We will then be able to provide you with a quote for the best course of action related to hot water system as well.
100mm drains
The most common cause of the larger 100mm drains blocking are tree roots. Blockages occur more frequently in the older earthenware (clay) piping than in the newer PVC (plastic) piping. Tree roots seek out water and will find their way into pipes by way of a crack or weakened joint. They then begin to spread inside the pipe which can causes an obstruction.
Drain cleaning equipment with a specialised root cutting attachment is the only way to effectively remove the tree roots. If the drain continues to occlude because of tree roots we could then carry out a camera inspection and locate the problem areas.
With this information we could then provide you with a comprehensive quote that may recommend replacing the sections of drain which are faulty, allowing the intrusion of tree roots and causing the problems.
65mm and 50mm PVC drains
50mm and 40mm PVC and cast-iron waste lines
Older cast iron waste lines may block up with hair, tree roots and cooking fats.
