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.

What Our Happy Customers Have To Say

Excellent
Ryan had great availability then was prompt and sorted out our drips 🙂
Being just after Christmas I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to find a plumber. Ryan messaged me shortly after my initial enquiry.
We arranged a time and he showed up on time, quickly isolated my problem, and fixed it. Highly recommend Around the bend plumbing.
On Friday morning last week our hot water service expired. A quick phone call to Ryan and our new hot water service was installed and working by 1 pm. Around the bend plumbing are a very professional, competitive and quick tradesman. Indeed a very rare find these days . Highly recommend.
We were in dire straights when our toilet suddenly backed up the day before the long weekend, we have only the one toilet! Ryan was great to deal with when I called, and had soon organised one of their team to squeeze us in, and fix our problem. Glen arrived right in the time slot given, and was very pleasant, capable, and professional. He quickly discovered that plant roots had invaded our sewer pipes, and promptly removed them. He also advised me what action we need to take in the future, to ensure the sewer remains fully functional.
Around the Bend Plumbing will definitely be our go to anytime we need a plumber. I highly recommend them.
Response from the owner:Thanks heaps for those kind words Frances, always happy and ready to help where & when required

Response from the owner:Thanks so much for your lovely review Rosie. Our motto is “fast, friendly service for all your plumbing needs”
Professional work and reasonable price.
Thanks again to Ryan and Lachie. Always quick to respond. Lachie had another big job to get to ahead of the temp reaching 42 degrees but happily added the replacement of a 2nd ageing garden tap to his list for me. Now I can rest easy knowing I won’t see another outdoor flooding event any time soon.
Ryan did a wonderful job on our courtyard project. He took the time to understand what was needed and thought about how to best deliver. We are very happy with his work. Thanks again Ryan. 🙂
