Frequently Asked Questions About Blocked Drains

Everything you need to know before you call.

Some common signs of blocked drains or pipes include slow-draining water, foul odours, gurgling noises, and water backing up in sinks, toilets or showers. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's a good idea to contact a professional plumber to diagnose the drain blockage and book a drain blockage removal before it gets worse.

Blocked drains and pipes can be caused by a variety of factors, such as grease buildup, foreign objects, tree root intrusion, excess hair and mineral deposits. Regular maintenance and careful use can help prevent drainage problems in your plumbing system.

While some minor blockages can be cleared using a plunger or a drain snake, it's usually best to consult a professional for more severe blockages. DIY solutions often cause further damage to your plumbing system or provide only temporary relief, while a professional drain blockage removal deals with the actual cause.

To prevent blocked drains and pipes, avoid pouring grease, oil or fat down the sink, and use drain strainers to catch hair and debris. Dispose of food waste properly, and avoid flushing items like baby wipes, sanitary products or paper towels down the toilet.

Regular drain cleaning can prevent clogs and keep your plumbing systems functioning correctly. Clogged drains lead to slow water flow, foul odours and even water damage to your property. At Eastside Plumbing, we use state-of-the-art equipment to clear your drains of debris and prevent a future drain blockage.
