BLOCKED DRAINS BRISBANE

DEDICATED BLOCKED DRAIN PLUMBER IN BRISBANE, IPSWICH AND LOGAN

Blocked drains in Brisbane are a common problem that can easily affect homes and businesses of all sizes. If water is unable to flow freely through a sink, toilet, bathtub or any other opening, the drain may start to overflow and cause damage to the home or building. Because of this frustrating, yet common problem, many plumbers install overflow relief gullies which are designed to mitigate overflow on the outside of the property. A gully should be 110mm lower than the lowest fixture outside the house to prevent water from overflowing and causing an unwanted mess.

Pauls plumbing has exceptional reviews because he is exceptional. I made an enquiry for a new hot water system and less than 24 hours Paul was installing said hot water system. He is professional, friendly, vibrant, excellent prices and does quality work. Couldn’t be any happier and so thankful we decided to go with Paul’s plumbing. I’d only ever recommend Paul’s plumbing and anticipate to use him when we renovate our house. Super happy

Paul is reliable and frank about estimates. Once he made contact he turned up on time and completed the job within 60 minutes. I got him back to rebuild the bathroom. That took a month in spite of the immediate start.

HOW TO PREVENT BLOCKED DRAINS

No one wants to constantly deal with blocked drains and have to worry about the damage they can cause to your home or business. Luckily, there’s plenty you can do to prevent the likelihood of blocked drains from occurring, including: 

  • Using drain strainers: Drain strainers stop small debris from making its way into your sinks and can be purchased at most hardware stores for a very low price. They can be placed on kitchen sinks to stop food from falling through them and shower drains to prevent hair, soap scum and dirt to block them
  • Keep cooking grease out of the sink: When you pour cooking oil down your kitchen sink, it can seem harmless enough. However, cooking grease can stick to the inside of your drains and build up over time. We recommend placing used cooking oil in a container or jar of some sort and then throwing it into the bin
  • Kitchen drain maintenance: Even if you try your hardest, there’s always going to be a small amount of food or debris that falls down your kitchen sink. One solution is to pour a kettle of boiling hot water down the drain, melting grease and food that’s been stuck down there. Another solution is to pour baking soda followed by vinegar down there, covering it up with a plug for 5 to 10 minutes and then pouring boiling water down to finish off the job
  • Regular inspections: Having your pipes inspected every 2 to 3 years is one of the best ways to stay on top of potential problems and have them resolved before they become too serious. Your trusted blocked drain plumber in Brisbane will recognise issues that aren’t immediately noticeable and save you some serious money in the long run

What are the causes of blocked drains?

As a specialist blocked drain plumber in Brisbane, we’ve pretty much seen it all. And the main culprit of blocked drains are:

  • Organic matter – tree roots, leaves, dirt and garden debris

How do I stop blocked drains?

There are some simple preventive measures you can take to help prevent blocked drains. We recommend always using a sink or drain strainer to catch any food waste and avoid pouring substances like oils down the sink. You should also remove any build-up of hair from the basin, bathtub or shower.
