Common Questions

  • Common causes include tree roots, hair build up, flushing items other than toilet paper including baby wipes, wet wipes, hand wipes & sanitary products and grease build up from cooking oils.

  • Minor clogs may seem like an easy DIY however professional plumbing expertise and expensive equipment is necessary to resolve the issue long-term.

  • To diagnose a blockage our qualified plumbers carry out onsite testing on your plumbing drainage systems. This generally involves using inspection openings to check the quality of your drains before using CCTV cameras to inspect and locate the issue with precision.

  • Usually no ~ but in some instances excavation is necessary and the best solution. Our professional CCTV equipment can pinpoint the exact location of the blockage which minimises excavation.

  • Our number one tip is to never flush anything other than toilet paper. This alongside tree roots is the number one cause of drain problems. We also recommend booking in an annual drain clean with one of our qualified plumbers.
