Frequently Asked Questions

  • What causes a blocked drain?

    Blocked drains are most commonly caused by a buildup of materials such as grease, soap scum, food scraps, hair or foreign objects. Outdoor drains can become blocked by leaves, dirt, tree roots or storm debris. Over time, these obstructions reduce water flow until the system backs up. In older plumbing, cracked or misaligned pipes can also contribute to repeated blockages.

  • Can I clear a blocked drain myself?

    Minor clogs can sometimes be cleared with a plunger or basic drain snake. However, DIY methods often push the blockage further down the line or only provide temporary relief. If water keeps backing up or you’ve tried multiple times without success, it’s time to call a plumber. Licensed professionals use proper tools to fully remove blockages and assess for underlying damage.

  • How do plumbers fix a blocked drain?

    Plumbers use a combination of methods depending on the cause and location of the blockage. This may include drain snakes, high-pressure jetting, CCTV drain inspections and excavation in severe cases. Once the blockage is cleared, they check for pipe damage and advise on preventative measures. The goal is to restore full flow and reduce the risk of it happening again.
