Common Signs of a Blocked Drain
Drain issues often start with subtle changes before turning into a major blockage. You may notice water draining slower than usual, bubbling sounds in pipes, unpleasant odours, or gurgling noises after flushing or running taps. In more serious situations, wastewater may back up into fixtures or external drains may overflow. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to call our Mitcham blocked drain specialists before the situation becomes an emergency.
What Causes Blocked Drains in Mitcham?
Mitcham’s established neighbourhoods and leafy streets are beautiful — but tree roots and older pipes can contribute to plumbing issues. Roots can infiltrate underground pipes, while leaves, soil and debris are common culprits in stormwater blockages. Inside the home, grease in kitchen sinks, hair and soap in bathroom drains, and accidental flushing of foreign objects are frequent causes of clogs. Ageing or damaged pipework can also collapse or break, restricting flow. Our advanced camera inspection equipment lets us locate the source quickly and provide the most effective long-term solution.
Our Blocked Drain Solutions
We begin by inspecting your drains with high-definition cameras to determine the precise cause of the blockage. Depending on the issue, we use high-pressure water jetting to blast away debris, grease and tree roots, or mechanical equipment to break apart stubborn obstructions. If we discover cracked or deteriorated pipes, we offer pipe repair and trenchless relining to restore your drainage system without major excavation. Our approach ensures the blockage is not only cleared but that the underlying cause is addressed, helping to prevent future issues.
