Your Blocked Drain Questions Answered by Experts
Understand blocked drains better and how we can support you:
What causes blocked drains?
Blocked drains can occur due to a range of contributing factors, including:
- The accumulation of hair or grease, along with natural debris such as plants and dirt
- Flushing or disposing of toiletries like baby wipes and nappies
- Intense rain and severe storm conditions
- Damaged pipes and restricted water flow
- Unwanted items being flushed or rinsed into the drainage system
- Tree roots
To limit the number of drain blockages in your home or business, avoid flushing anything besides toilet paper. Other items cannot break down properly, causing blockages and drainage problems.
Can I clear clogged drains on my own?
If it’s a minor blockage, you may be able to clear it at home. Start by:
- Take out any noticeable debris from the sink or grate
- Pour boiling water down the sink to help flush the pipe
- Add baking soda to the drain and flush with hot water to help loosen grease deposits
- Where necessary, a drain snake can be used to further clear the blockage
If the pipe remains blocked after trying these steps, there may be a more serious obstruction. In this situation, it is best to contact professional plumbing and drain specialists.
What may occur if you do not address blocked pipes?
Ignoring blocked pipes can have a widespread effect on your plumbing system. Built-up pressure may damage pipes and cause leaks, and in some cases, overflow can occur, resulting in property damage and potential hygiene and health issues.

How does Elite Plumbing resolve blocked drains?
Our expert plumbing team use specialised jets and cleaning equipment to remove debris and clear blockages from drains. Using advanced CCTV inspections, high-pressure cleaning, and relining drains, we can effectively and quickly identify and remove a blockage with no mess and no fuss!
Why use CCTV inspection for drains?
CCTV or camera inspections help your Elite plumber locate blockages, structural concerns, pipe collapses, root intrusion, leaks, incorrect installations, service faults, and other issues.
A major benefit of CCTV inspection is that your pipes can be inspected and assessed without significant excavation or disruption to your property.
When the inspection is complete, your home and garden will be left undisturbed, with no need for digging!
Is high-pressure drain cleaning available?
High-pressure water jets can unblock drains quickly and without mess. Using the right amount of pressure is very important, as too much can cause further unwanted damage.
At Elite Plumbing, we utilise high-quality jetting equipment and thoroughly assess your drain before beginning high-pressure cleaning.
What are the early warning signs of a blocked stormwater drain or sewerage system?
Blockages in stormwater drains and sewerage systems are not always immediately noticeable, but there are several warning signs to be aware of. If you suspect a blockage, reach out to the Elite Plumbing team for professional inspection and assistance.
Some warning signs that your stormwater drain or sewerage system could be blocked include:
- Slow-moving water in sinks, showers, baths, or basins.
- Offensive odours are coming from your drains.
- Your toilet may overflow or display unusually high or low water levels.
- Unusual gurgling sounds can be heard within your plumbing.
- You may notice sewage water pooling around gully traps.
- Stormwater not draining as it should may cause flooding around concrete areas or downpipes.
- Irregular pressure and temperature levels in your hot water system.
- Your water bills may rise without an obvious cause.
Stormwater and sewerage blockages may need specialised high-pressure jetting to effectively remove obstructions.
