Understand the signs and risks of blocked drains.
- Blocked stormwater systems can lead to subsidence and flooding. Here are more risks and early warning signs of stormwater blockage.
- Blocked sewer pipes have a range of health risks. Learn about these and ways to detect blocked sewerage early.
Tree roots in drains can cause severe chokes, creating blocked stormwater systems and sewer pipes.
These blockages lead to overflowing drains, blocked toilets, smelly drains or leaking drains that leach water into the soil around them and underfloor spaces and basements.
Plastic (UPVC) pipes, clay pipes, concrete and cement pipes, cast iron pipes, and any other piping materials can become partially or completely blocked by tree roots.
You should always use a professional to unblock your drain with an electric eel or high-pressure water blaster. We offer blocked drain services in Canberra, and our team of qualified plumbers has been clearing root, fat, and other blockages in Canberra since the early 1990s.
Remember, all tree roots regrow unless the offending tree or trees are removed, and you should have the tree roots in your drains removed at the first sign of a blockage.
The bigger the roots get, the harder they are to remove and the more damage they will cause to your drains.
We aim to keep costs for our customers to a minimum and will always try to clear tree roots from stormwater and sewer drains before recommending a drain replacement or repair. Many homeowners can avoid costly excavations by having their drains cleaned annually.
However, if your sewer or stormwater drain continually blocks with tree roots – given the resulting damage they can cause and the health risks – owners should consider the benefits of replacing it with heavy-duty UPVC piping.
