Prevent a blocked sewer

Prevention is always better than cure. Bubbling sounds in your drains often serve as a warning that a blockage may be imminent. It’s important to act promptly when you notice such signs to avoid a blockage in your sewer.

The best approach to prevent clogs is to investigate their potential causes. Often, blockages result from grease and debris accumulating in the sewer. Poorly constructed sewerage systems can also contribute to the problem.

For example, excessive bends in the pipes or long distances to the municipal drain system can impede wastewater flow and lead to blockages.

In some cases, tree roots growing into the drain line can cause persistent blockages. These roots can intrude into the pipes and create obstructions that are difficult to clear.

No matter the cause, our professionals are here to help. The Plumber in Melbourne is ready to assist with any sewer and drain issues. To schedule an appointment, call 1800 870 821.

Clogged sewer

Sewer inspection

Scheduling a drain inspection can be an effective way to prevent future blockages. Our certified plumbers can quickly identify any issues. So why choose a drain inspection in Melbourne, Victoria?

Blockages often result from debris buildup in the sewer or a clogged drain line. Over time, materials such as debris and toilet paper can accumulate, causing a blockage that impedes the flow of water.

Simply unclogging the sewer may not address the root cause of the problem if the blockage is further down the line. To pinpoint the exact location of the issue, contact our plumbing company for a sewer inspection in Melbourne at 1800 870 821

Inspect sewer

What we do in a sewer inpection

When you hire our team for a sewer inspection in Melbourne, we quickly identify the problem using advanced techniques. Our process involves using a specialised camera attached to a flexible hose, which we insert into your drain through the sewer. This allows us to thoroughly inspect your entire drain system.

We begin by assessing the general condition of the sewer, checking for issues such as root infiltration or other drain problems like backflow caused by subsidence. If a pipe has burst, we can pinpoint the exact location of the leak to the centimetre. This precise detection means you won’t need to dig up the entire street, saving you both time and money.

If you need a sewer inspection, the experts at Plumber Melbourne are here to assist you. Contact us at 1800 870 821 to discuss your needs or schedule an appointment.

A sewer inspection saves money

Dealing with a sewer blockage might make you consider breaking open parts of your floor or pavement to locate the problem. However, this approach can be costly and unnecessary.

By opting for a drain inspection with our team in Melbourne, you can save a significant amount of money. We use a camera that we insert into the drain, which is then tracked above ground using specialised equipment.

This allows us to pinpoint the exact location of the blockage with precision. As a result, we only need to access the problem area through one small opening, whether it’s in your floor or paving, rather than causing extensive damage.

If you’d like to schedule a drain inspection, contact Plumber Melbourne at 1800 870 821. We will visit as soon as possible to inspect your sewer and address the issue efficiently.

Unclog sewer

Unblock your sewer blockage

Thinking about unblocking your sewer yourself? On this page, we’ve outlined several methods that you can try. However, keep in mind that there’s no guarantee these methods will work, as drain and sewer blockages are often quite persistent.

Before choosing an approach, it’s essential to determine where the blockage is located. Is it deep within the drain, or is it relatively close to the sewer? A blockage deep in the drain can be nearly impossible to resolve on your own because you won’t be able to apply enough pressure to clear it.

If you’re unsure where the blockage is, you can pour a bucket of water down various drains in your home. This will help you identify whether multiple drains are affected or if the blockage is confined to a specific one.

If several drains are malfunctioning, it’s likely that the blockage is deeper in the sewer. In this case, it’s best to call a professional right away. A specialist can thoroughly flush the drains, ensuring that the inner walls are completely clean and reducing the risk of future blockages.

If you’d prefer to have your blockage cleared by an expert, feel free to contact Plumber Company Melbourne at 1800 870 821. We’re here to help with all your plumbing needs.

Chemical

Avoid using chemical unblockers

Although many unblockers are available online and in DIY stores, we strongly advise against using chemical-based products. These chemicals can be harmful not only to your sewer but also to your health and the environment.

The corrosive nature of these products is so strong that they can damage the inner walls of your pipes, leading to costly repairs. Additionally, direct contact with these chemicals can cause serious skin irritation or chemical burns, making them dangerous to handle.

When using chemical unblockers, toxic fumes are released, which can be harmful to your respiratory system. Inhaling these fumes often leads to coughing, chest tightness, and other health issues.

Perhaps most frustrating of all, many of these products simply don’t work as promised. We frequently assist customers who have tried multiple unblockers without success. In some cases, the chemicals harden or form clumps, creating an even bigger blockage than the original one.

Even if the product does work, the chemicals eventually need to be flushed away, which unnecessarily pollutes the sewage system. These substances are difficult to break down and negatively impact water purification processes, harming the environment in the long run.

If you prefer a quick and professional solution to your blockage, feel free to contact us for an appointment at 1800 870 821.

Clogged sewer

Unclog with a sewer unblocker

Using a sewer unblocker spring is a practical method for dealing with stubborn blockages, but it does come with some risks. The steel spring can easily cause damage to the pipes if not used carefully.

We often hear from people who have accidentally gotten the spring stuck in the sewer, which can result in further complications. It’s important to handle the spring with care, as excessive force when pushing or pulling can lead to significant damage, potentially requiring part of the sewer to be replaced.

To effectively use a sewer unblocker, the spring needs to be inserted deeply into the sewer, carefully navigating any bends by gently twisting and pushing. Once the spring reaches the blockage, it’s essential to dislodge it by cautiously turning, pushing, and pulling the spring. After the blockage has been loosened, flushing the sewer with warm water helps clear any remaining debris.

If the blockage is successfully removed, it’s advisable to rinse the sewer again with warm water to ensure it’s fully cleared. In some cases, a pressure washer may be necessary for a more thorough cleaning.

However, if this method does not work, the clog may be located too deep within the sewer for a standard spring to reach. In such situations, it’s best to call a professional who can use specialised equipment, such as an advanced spring machine, to efficiently clear the entire sewer and drain system. To schedule an appointment with Plumber Melbourne, call 1800 870 821.

Sewer blockage

Unblock sewer with baking soda

Unblocking a sewer with baking soda is a natural and effective solution. Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, has powerful degreasing and cleansing properties, making it highly effective against blockages caused by grease, oil, soap scum, and other debris.

This method works particularly well for clogged shower drains, sinks, or kitchen drains, and can even be tried for a blocked toilet or other drains. For an even stronger effect, it’s recommended to combine baking soda with vinegar, which enhances its cleaning power.

To use this method, first pour baking soda into the sewer, followed by vinegar. Let the mixture sit for several hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to break down the blockage. After this, flush the sewer with a bucket of warm water, which you can prepare by mixing more baking soda and vinegar. Pouring the water from a height helps create extra pressure, assisting in clearing the blockage more effectively.

If the blockage persists, you may need to try a different method or call in a professional. Plumber Melbourne offers expert services to ensure your sewer is properly cleared. To make an appointment, contact us at 1800 870 821.

Unclog a sewer

Unblock with a pressure washer

Clearing a sewer blockage with a pressure washer is another effective method, but it’s important to ensure that the sewer isn’t completely clogged. If the water has no way to flow through, it will spray back up, potentially causing water damage. There must be some degree of water flow for this approach to work properly.

To clear the blockage, insert the head of the pressure washer as far into the sewer as possible and spray for a few seconds to test the water flow. If the water sprays back up, stop immediately to prevent damage. However, if the water flows smoothly, continue flushing the pipe thoroughly for several minutes to clear the blockage.

If the pressure washer method doesn’t succeed, it’s advisable to contact a professional plumbing company with specialised equipment. Plumber Melbourne is ready to help you effectively unblock and clean your sewer and drains. For an appointment, feel free to call 1800 870 821.

Why is a plumber called a plumber?

A plumber's work used to consist of pouring lead. This involved using strips of lead to seal joints in pipes. Today, this is almost not done anymore.

However, the name plumber is still widely used today. The work of a plumber has become much more complex. Think of kitting and installing pipes for bathrooms and kitchens. Plumber Melbourne can take care of it all!
