How Do I know if i have a blocked Drain?

It is essential not to allow clogged drains to sit. Even if the block does not initially seem severe or like a significant issue, it may easily escalate to become a much larger problem. If ignored, a clog in your drainage system may cause flooding or create stagnant water in your home that is unpleasant and unsanitary.

A clogged drain left to sit may cause a pipe to leak or burst which could cause significant water damage to your property and be expensive to repair. If dirty water/wastewater enter your home it could also be a major health risk for the residents of your property. Suspect that your drain is clogged? Here are some tell-tale signs to watch out for:

  • Foul smells coming from your drains
  • Water pooling near appliances
  • Water backing up in your sink, shower or bathtub
  • Unusual sounds, like bubbling noises, coming from your drains

Common causes of these issues include everything from built-up hair, oil, grease, leaf matter, tree roots and much more! That’s why it pays to use a licensed plumber! At Gold Coast Blocked Drains, we’ll accurately identify the cause and efficiently unblock the drain as soon as possible. Clear clogged toilets, stormwater drains, showers or sewers.

Signs You Need A Blocked Drain Plumber

While there are a lot of signs you have a blocked or clogged drain, these are the most common signs you have a blocked drain include:
  • Backflow Issues
  • Slow Draining
  • Horrible Smells
  • Bubbling/Gurgling Noises
  • Raised Water Levels
  • Lower Water Levels
  • Sewerage Or Greywater Coming Out Of Outside Drains

Frequently Asked Questions

First, the drain may be clogged with hair or soap scum. This can cause water to build up and eventually overflow. Another possibility is that the seal around the shower door or tub is leaking. This can allow water to seep out and puddle on the floor. Finally, the problem could be with the slope of the floor. If the floor is too flat, water may not drain properly and will pool in the lowest spot.

If you’re not sure what’s causing the problem, it’s best to consult a plumber or other professional. They will be able to diagnose the problem and recommend a solution.

If you notice your drains are smelly, it’s time to call a plumber. The foul or unusual odour is likely caused by food, waste or general debris blocking your drains. Ignoring the problem will not make it go away, and the longer you wait, the worse it will get. A plumber can quickly identify the source of the problem and take steps to solve it.

In many cases, a simple cleaning will do the trick. For example, you could try pouring hot water and vinegar or a cleaning solution down your drains. However, if there is a more serious issue, such as a clog or leak, professional drain cleaning will be required. Don’t wait until your drains are backing up before you call for help. By then, the problem will be much larger and more expensive to fix.

If you hear a gurgling or bubbling noise that originates in your drains, it is likely that there is something in your drains that is disrupting the flow of water and air through your drains. Water travelling slowly through drains can also increase the number of air bubbles in the water. For this reason, if you hear unusual gurgling/bubbling noises from your drains it is advisable to contact a drainage expert as soon as possible.

There are numerous things you can do that may be able to help prevent a drain from clogging, these include:

  • Use a drain guard/sink strainer – drain guards and strainers help catch hair, food and other substances that may cause a blockage in your drains.
  • Don’t pour oil/fats down your drains – Oil and grease can solidify in drains and cause a blockage. Instead of pouring them down your sink, wait for them to cool and dispose of them with your general waste.
  • Don’t flush makeup/baby wipes or sanitary products down your toilet as these can cause blockages.

If you accidentally drop a precious item down your drain, e.g. your wedding ring falls off whilst washing your hands, immediately turn the tap off. You may be able to find your ring by removing the p-trap of the sink (this is often shaped as a U-bend) but sometimes this is not possible. An expert CCTV inspection service is often the best way to locate and retire your precious item.

Stormwater drains usually become blocked due to a build of debris, such as leaves and silt. This is why stormwater drains may become blocked after a storm that disturbs plants and trees. A blocked stormwater drain can cause flooding so should be cleared as soon as possible.

There are several mistakes people often make when attempting drain cleaning, but perhaps the most common is pouring caustic soda (Sodium Hydroxide) down the drain. Caustic soda is corrosive and can damage household pipes, waste disposal units and other equipment that it comes into contact with.

Another common mistake is pouring baking soda & vinegar. This will only rid bacteria rather than unblocking drains. Its important to only leave plumbing to certified experts!

A blocked drain can lead to unpleasant odours, wastewater overflows and flooding if it is not unblocked quickly by a trained, professional plumber. Not to mention it can cause burst pipes resulting in replacements. This means we need to excavate any earth to reach the plumbing and replace.

This is why it’s important to contact us as soon as possible if you’re having trouble with your drainage
