Common Causes of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains can occur for a variety of reasons, and early detection is crucial to prevent further damage.

Common causes include grease and fats, which solidify when poured down the drain, causing clogs. In bathroom drains, hair and soap scum can accumulate, leading to slow drainage or blockages. Food waste thrown down kitchen sinks can clog drains, especially in older systems.

Tree roots can infiltrate pipes, causing severe blockages, particularly in older homes. Foreign objects, such as children’s toys, wipes, or cotton buds, can also become lodged in the pipes, restricting water flow.

Recognising the signs of a blocked drain early can help avoid costly repairs or water damage.

Had Ryan and his team do a part bathroom renovation and could not be happier wth the result and more importantly the price and service.
We had a leaking plumbing joint under our kitchen sink, as well as needing to replace a faulty kitchen sink mixer tap, and help finishing the installation of a new dishwasher.

Our regular plumber abandoned us at the last minute.

After searching for plumber recommendations on our local community Facebook page I saw that Around the bend plumbing were being recommended by various people, and in multiple posts over a reasonable period of time, and they’re based in Aspendale which is only two suburbs away from us.

I contacted them via their published phone number.

They were very responsive and could attend to us the day after the initial contact.

They were proactive in keeping me up-to-date with when they would be here, how much their hourly charges were.

They actually were able to start the job earlier than originally planned, and after confirming this with us, they came onsite and completed the work in a timely manner.

We were very happy with the service provided by Around the bend plumbing, from initial contact through to completion of the requested tasks.

Communication was clear and timely.

We highly recommend Around the bend plumbing and will certainly be using them again for all our plumbing need going forward.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the wonderful review jeff 😊 It’s most appreciated and rewarding for us as we strive to achieve these results
Punctual, professional and friendly.
Would happily recommend Ryan and his team.
We had been having trouble with very low water pressure. Ryan was recommended by a number of locals. He correctly diagnosed the issue as a faulty pressure regulator, quoted a price to fix it and sent one of his plumbers the next morning. He arrived on time and installed the new regulator, which gave us back full water pressure.

We are very happy with the service from Around The Bend plumbing and will definitely use them again in the future.
Response from the owner:It’s always very humbling & rewarding to be recommended by the local bayside community – our goal is to give the best experience possible So happy we could resolve your low water pressure issue. look forward to helping you out again whenever needed 😊 Ryan Around the bend plumbing
