Blocked Drains Ku-Ring-Gai

Have you noticed a damp and musty smell coming from your bathroom lately? It could be a sign of a blocked drain. Like in any other locations, blocked drains unfortunately can also happen in Ku-Ring-Gai, and they can be difficult to correctly diagnose and treat through conventional methods. 

Our team at Sydney Blocked Drains specialises in drains on all stages from installation to maintenance. This group of well-trained professionals are the best people to contact for your problems on blocked drains.

What causes blocked drains in the bath or shower room? A blocked drain in your bathroom can occur for several reasons. However, some of the most common causes of a blocked drain are:

1. Hair clogging the drain – hair in the shower is probably the most common cause of a blocked drain in your bathroom. Left unchecked, hair can quickly and easily build up in your shower drain, as it is not easily washed away. Actively prevent hair build up in your shower by pulling any visible hair out of the drain each time you shower.
   
   
2. Flushing baby wipes down the toilet – never flush baby wipes down the toilet even if the label reads “flushable”. The toilet is designed to handle only human body waste, water, and toilet paper. Anything else should be disposed of properly and should not be flushed down. Even “flushable” baby wipes are many times thicker and does not disintegrate in water as easily as the toilet paper does, therefore has a much higher tendency to cause blockages in the drains when flushed down the toilet indiscriminately. You can basically summarise this to one rule: “If it’s not water, pee, poo, or toilet paper, do not flush it down the toilet!”
   
   
3. Sanitary objects and toiletries – like baby wipes, sanitary items and nappies are also commonly disposed of down the toilet. Sanitary items and nappies can cause blockages in your drain even faster than their “flushable” counterpart, as they absorb a lot of water and swell in size, quickly obstructing water flow in the drain. Same rules apply as above – do not ever flush these items down the toilet.
   
   
4. Broken pipes or poor installation – over time, your indoor plumbing system may experience wear and tear, as well as degradation. Old or broken pipes are far more susceptible to blockages, particularly if the initial installation was poor. At Sydney Blocked Drains, we offer simple health checks for your home plumbing system. By performing a routine check, our highly experienced team can identify any potential issues before they arise, saving you a considerable amount of time and money.
