FAQs

  • What is the most common source of a blocked drain?

    There are a few. Hair is one of the most commonly found blockages in shower drains for obvious reasons. In general though, blockages are usually the result of a few things. Soap, dirt, fats, oils and food waste will often bind together to form clogs that worsen over time. Some of these blockages are unavoidable and are just a fact of life. That is why routine checks and maintenance are so important.

  • How do you repair a blocked drain?

    Our team has high pressure water jetters that will blast through the blockage and have water draining properly again. We utilise the top-quality equipment to locate and remove the blockage. Whether your property is residential, commercial, industrial or rural, we will correct the source of your blocked drain promptly and for an affordable price.

  • How do I avoid drain blockages?

    The best way to avoid blockages is to stay up to date with routine inspections and maintenance. On top of this, you can also avoid flushing wet wipes and napkins. Do not put grease, oil or any kinds of fat down your kitchen sink—these tend to stick to the sides of your pipes and will build up into blockages over time. Also, get into the habit of removing any hair from the floor of your shower after you are done bathing.
