Common Questions Answered by Blocked Drain Professionals
Understand blocked drains better and how we can support you:
What causes blocked drains?
A number of different factors can lead to drain blockages, including:
- A collection of hair or grease combined with natural debris such as plants and dirt
- Flushing or disposing of toiletries like baby wipes and nappies
- Heavy rain and severe storms
- Cracked or broken pipes along with inadequate water flow
- Non-flushable items being washed or flushed into the pipes
- Tree root infiltration
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 unblock a drain without professional help?
If it’s a minor blockage, you may be able to clear it at home. Start by:
- Clear away any visible debris from the blocked sink or drain grate
- Use boiling water to flush out the pipe through the sink
- Add baking soda, followed by hot water, to help break down grease
- If required, use a drain snake to help break apart stubborn blockages
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?
Leaving blocked pipes as they are may quickly affect your entire plumbing system. Pressure will continue to build, potentially causing damaged pipes and leaks. In some cases, drainage systems may overflow, causing property damage and even posing hygiene and health risks.

How does Elite Plumbing clear blocked drains?
Our skilled plumbers utilise specialised jetting systems and cleaning tools to eliminate debris and unblock drains. Through advanced CCTV inspections, high-pressure cleaning, and drain relining, we efficiently locate and fix blockages without unnecessary mess.
Why use CCTV inspection for drains?
CCTV or camera inspections enable your Elite plumber to detect blockages, structural damage, pipe collapses, root intrusion, leaks, incorrect installations, service faults, and more.
CCTV inspection offers the benefit of assessing the state and integrity of your pipes without extensive digging or disturbance to the surrounding ground.
Once the inspection is finished, your home and garden will remain unchanged, with no digging needed.
Can you carry out high-pressure drain cleaning?
High-pressure jetting is an effective and tidy way to clear blocked drains. It is important to use the appropriate pressure, as too much force can cause further issues.
At Elite Plumbing, our team uses premium jetting tools and evaluates the condition of your drain prior to starting high-pressure cleaning.
How can I tell if my stormwater drains or sewer system may be blocked?
Blockages in your stormwater drains and sewerage system may not be obvious at first, but there are a few signs to look out for. If you believe there may be a blockage in your system, contact the Elite Plumbing team for expert inspection and resolution.
Indicators that your stormwater drain or sewerage system is blocked include:
- Slow drainage in your sink, showers, bath, or basins.
- Unpleasant odours are coming from your drains.
- Your toilet overflows or has 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 is not draining properly and is flooding the concrete or downpipes.
- Unstable water pressure and temperature from your hot water system.
- Your water bills may rise without an obvious cause.
Clearing blocked stormwater drains and sewerage systems may require the use of specialised high-pressure jet equipment.
