Our Services
At Gold Coast Blocked Drains, we always strive to be at the cutting edge of drain unblocking technology. We utilise the most advanced solutions currently available in the market to locate and identify stormwater blockages. We utilise CCTV drain cameras, which allow us to pinpoint the exact location of the blockage, reducing the need for unnecessary digging and cutting the overall cost of the service.
We then use high-tech equipment to blast away any obstructions in your stormwater drains. Environmentally friendly and highly effective, not only does this method remove blockages, it also cleans the pipes, prolonging their lifespan.
It’s critical to be able to identify the signs of a blocked stormwater drain before it becomes a major issue. Slow draining water is one of the most obvious signs. If you notice water taking longer than usual to drain in sinks, showers or bathtubs, there’s a good chance you’re dealing with a blockage.
Another tell-tale sign is unusual sounds, such as gurgling or bubbling from the drains. These noises are produced when air is trapped in the drain and then bubbles up through the water. A nasty smell is also a clear indication of a blockage. This can be due to food particles, waste and other debris building-up in your drains due to a blockage.
Various factors can contribute to a blocked stormwater drain. One of the most common causes is tree roots infiltrating your drainpipes. Tree roots often grow into pipes in search of water, which then causes severe blockages. Additionally, debris such as leaves, dirt and rubbish can accumulate in your stormwater drains over time, particularly in stormy seasons.
Another common issue is incorrect pipe installation or old pipes, which can lead to cracks and ultimately cause blockages. Sometimes, foreign objects or household waste that are not supposed to be flushed down the drain can cause blockages. This includes items like baby wipes, sanitary products, hair and excessive amounts of toilet paper. Remember, regular maintenance of your stormwater drains is the best way to avoid blockages.
If you suspect you have a blocked stormwater drain, don’t ignore the problem. The longer you wait, the worse the blockage can get. If left too long, blocked stormwater drains can cause damage to your pipes and extensive water damage to your home. While it can be tempting to fix the problem yourself, it’s generally recommended to seek professional help.
