Common Causes of Blocked Drains
Blocked drains are a common issue that can cause significant inconvenience and damage if not addressed promptly. Understanding the common causes of blocked drains can help you prevent them and ensure your plumbing system remains in good condition.
Household Waste
Household waste, including food particles, grease, hair, and soap scum, can accumulate in your pipes over time, leading to blockages. Grease and fat can solidify inside the pipes, creating stubborn clogs that restrict water flow.
Tree Root Intrusions
Tree roots can invade your sewer lines and drains, especially if there are small cracks or leaks. As roots grow, they can cause significant blockages and even damage your pipes, leading to more severe plumbing issues.
Pipe Corrosion and Damage
Over time, pipes can corrode, crack, or collapse, leading to blockages. Corrosion can cause rough surfaces inside the pipes where debris can get caught, while cracks and collapses can obstruct the flow of water completely.
Symptoms of a Blocked Drain
Identifying the symptoms of a blocked drain early can help you address the issue before it becomes a major problem. Here are some common signs that your drain may be blocked:
Slow Draining Water
If water is draining slowly from your sinks, showers, or bathtubs, it could be a sign of a blockage in the pipes. This is often caused by a buildup of debris that restricts the flow of water.
Unpleasant Odours
Blocked drains can produce unpleasant odours as trapped waste begins to decompose. If you notice foul smells coming from your drains, it’s a sign that you may have a blockage that needs to be cleared.
Gurgling Sounds
Gurgling sounds coming from your drains or toilets can indicate that air is trapped in the pipes due to a blockage. This can cause water to drain inefficiently and may lead to more serious issues if not addressed.
How We Clear Blocked Drains
At Urgent Plumbing and Gas, we use a variety of advanced techniques and equipment to effectively clear blocked drains. Our methods are safe, efficient, and designed to address the specific cause of the blockage.
Drain Snaking
Drain snaking involves using a flexible auger, or “snake”, to break up and remove blockages from the pipes. This method is effective for clearing minor clogs caused by household waste and debris.
Hydro Jetting
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water jets to blast away blockages and clean the interior of the pipes. This method is highly effective for removing stubborn clogs, grease buildup, and tree roots, leaving your pipes clear and free flowing.
CCTV Drain Inspection
CCTV drain inspection involves using a high-resolution camera to visually inspect the interior of your pipes. This allows us to accurately diagnose the cause and location of the blockage, ensuring that we use the most effective method to clear it.
