Whether it’s a stormwater drain or a blocked sewer drain, quick repair is crucial to prevent potential damage to your home and property. Blocked sewer drains can be inconvenient, but blocked stormwater drains, especially during heavy rain, can lead to devastating effects on your property. Drains can become blocked due to improper disposal of materials, including waste products, and tree roots infiltrating cracks or joins in drainage pipes.
Common Causes of Blocked Drains
Exercise caution with what goes down toilets, sinks, diswashers, and showers. Paper blockages often result from excess toilet paper use, as well as the disposal of paper towels and baby wipes, which don’t easily break down and can get caught in your drains.
Tree roots are a leading cause of blockages. In clay pipes, even a small crack in the rubber around the inspection plate allows roots to take hold. PVC pipes may fact issues due to poor workmanship, such as improper pipe joining or pies being pierced by sharp rocks. Notably liquid amber and rubber trees are common culprits for blocked rains in Sydney.
Land Movement can cause pipes to break, especially with a downward drop and a bend in the pipe. Over time joints weaken and malll cracks may allow tree roots to infiltrate.
