Blocked Drains Joondalup

Some blockages are fairly easy to deal with at home and don't always require a plumber. For example, if a sink drain is blocked you can always try pouring down boiling water to help dislodge the blockage.

Hydrochloric acid is also commonly used by plumbers to help clear sinks, and is often the key ingredient in most drain cleaning products you'll find in the supermarket.

You can also try looking under the sink and unscrewing and cleaning the S-trap, where there is often a lot of buildup. Using a plunger can also help as well with light blockages.

If these tricks don't resolve the issue, then you likely need a licenced plumber with specialised drain clearing equipment.

Your drains have to cope with a lot on a daily basis. Hair, grease, food waste, toilet paper, flushable wipes, along with tree roots penetrating your pipes.

Eventually, a blockage can be caused, even in the most careful households.

Unlinke most plumbing companies, we don't immediately charge more just for taking out certain equipment, such as water jetters and drain cameras.

Instead, we just charge for the time it takes us to clear the drain. Fair, transparent and affordable.

Accurately locating drain blockages used to be a laborious and time consuming job. Nowadays, we have specialised drain cameras that we can simply pop down the problem drain and see exactly what's going on in those pipes from a screen.

This allows us to see whether pipes are cracked, penetrated by tree roots, if something solid has lodged itself in the pipes or if it's just a really tough buildup of waste material.

We also then use the drain camera to inspect our work once we have attempted to clear any blockages. That way we know if we still need to continue working on the drain or if it's deemed clear and unblocked.

Only very basic blockages can be cleared with a plunger or supermarket purchased drain cleaning chemicals.

For tougher blockages, more heavy duty equipment is required such as a jet blaster.

Using high-pressure water streams, the jet blaster is able to break up most tough buildups with ease and clearing out drains within a matter of seconds.

And having inspected the drains prior with the cameras, there's no guesswork. We can get the jet blaster exactly where it's needed for maximum efficiency.

If there are tree roots that have made their way into your pipes, action needs to be taken to remedy the situation.

Which solution is utilised depends on how bad the situation is. We use high resolution drain cameras to see where the tree roots are, how bad they are and whether or not any of our treatments have worked.

Once the tree roots are cleared, it is then possible to use pipe re-lining technology to repair the damaged caused without the expense of trying to expose the pipes/excavate.
