Frequently Asked Questions

What causes blocked drains?

Blocked drains are commonly caused by a build-up of debris such as grease, food waste, hair, soap scum, or foreign objects. In some cases, more serious issues like tree root intrusion or collapsed pipes may be the cause.

Common signs of a blocked drain include slow draining water, unpleasant smells, gurgling sounds, or water backing up in sinks, showers, or toilets. If you notice any of these, it’s best to have it checked promptly.

While minor blockages can sometimes be cleared with a plunger or over-the-counter drain cleaner, these are often temporary fixes. For a long-term solution—and to avoid damage—it’s best to call a professional.
