Drainage Solutions near you in Glengowrie

Drainage Solutions Glengowrie

Blocked drains aren’t just a plumbing nuisance, take it as a warning sign. If everything is left unattended, they can lead to flooded bathrooms, foundation damage, or even health hazards from contaminated water. Your Local Tradesman built this guide to walk you through the causes, quick fixes, and advanced solutions for blocked drains in the Glengowrie.

DIY Methods for Minor Blockages

Some blockages don’t need a plumber right away. If your drain is slow but not completely stuck, try these homeowner-tested methods:

Boil and Flush: For greasy build-up, boiling water is a great start. Pour it down slowly in intervals to soften clogs.

Vinegar Fizz Method: Mix equal parts vinegar and baking soda, pour into the drain, let it bubble for 20 minutes, then rinse with hot water.

Cup Plunger: Great for shallow sink or shower blockages. Create a tight seal and give it 10-15 plunges.

If water backs up in other rooms, or if you smell sewage, stop DIY. The blockage is likely deep or in the main sewer line.

Common Causes of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains are usually caused by a buildup, and in the Glengowrie, that buildup depends on your home, plumbing age, and habits.

  • Flushable wet wipes and hygiene products
  • Tree roots intrusion
  • Hair, soap, and shower gunk
  • Improper disposal of kitchen waste
  • Overflowing stormwater drains

How We Fix Blocked Drains

Every blockage is different, and we treat it that way.

  • We use a live-feed camera down your drain to find the exact location and cause.
  • For stubborn blockages, we blast them clean with high-pressure water. It’s eco-friendly, safe for pipes, and clears years of built-up gunk.
  • For thick roots or foreign objects, we use speciality tools to cut and extract the clog with zero pipe damage.
  • Once your drain is clear, we help you keep it that way with custom maintenance plans or tips tailored to your property.

When DIY Doesn’t Work

Pipe Relining Experts

Sometimes the problem isn’t the clog; it’s the pipe itself. It may have cracked, collapsed, or root-damaged drains, meaning it can’t be solved with a quick jet. That’s why our trenchless pipe relining is your go-to solution. We insert a flexible, resin-coated liner into your damaged drain, inflate it, and then cure it in place, leaving you with a brand-new pipe inside your old one. No digging. No drama. Just a future-proof fix.

Why relining is worth it:

  • No destruction to paths, tiles, or landscaping.
  • Saves thousands on full pipe replacement
  • 50-year durability
  • Installed and ready in a single day
