What Causes Blocked Drains in Melbourne Homes & Businesses?



Tree Roots

Gardening can be wonderful and fun but it is important to know where your sewer and stormwater drains are laid before planting certain plant and trees.

Cracks and breaks in your pipes are especially vulnerable to strong, deep roots and can cause significant damage to your pipe’s health and your wallet! Out of all the blocked drain issues throughout our 20+ years plumbing experience, tree roots are the number one most common problem.



Grease & Cooking Oils/fat

The most common cause of kitchen sink blockages is oil grease clogging the drains.

Simply DO NOT pour oils down the kitchen sink, but instead pour it into containers to prevent the fats blocking your drain.



Baby Wipes & Non-Flushables

The bane of a plumbers existence! The so called FLUSHABLE WIPES!!! They bunch up, don't dissolve and block your drain

How much does it cost to clear a blocked drain in Melbourne?

Blocked drain clearing typically costs $180–$400 depending on severity and location. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden charges. Emergency callouts may include after-hours fees.

Do you offer same-day blocked drain services?

Yes, we provide same-day blocked drain services across Melbourne. Most emergencies are resolved within 2–4 hours with 24/7 availability.

What's the difference between a drain plumber and a general plumber?

Drain plumbers specialise in drainage systems and use CCTV and hydro jetting equipment. General plumbers handle broader plumbing tasks, while drain specialists focus on blockages and drainage repairs.
