Signs Your Drain Is Blocked
Stubborn blockages in drains can cause flooding, water damage, severe backups and health hazards too. Before the drain blockages get severe, there are warning signs that you must not ignore.
- Gurgling sounds from sewer pipes, sinks, toilets, kitchen drains or shower drains
- Water pooling around floor drains
- Slow drainage in sinks, showers, bathtubs or stormwater drains
- Unpleasant odours coming from drains despite cleaning the sewer lines
- Multiple fixtures backing up at the same time
- Overflowing or slow-draining toilet
If you are experiencing any of these in your Enmore home or business, call our plumbing team right away to get it sorted.
Common Causes of Blocked Drains in Enmore Homes
When it comes to blocked drains, Enmore is one of those suburbs where residents face this problem regularly. While small blockages like hair and debris can be removed by using strainers before they enter the pipes, stubborn dirt is the issue.
The dense terrace housing and aged plumbing system with clay pipes are the main culprits here, along with tree roots, grease buildup, hair accumulation and foreign objects. Thankfully, our licensed plumbers act quickly on drainage emergencies, since they are well-acquainted with Sydney's Inner West suburbs' plumbing issues.
Tree root intrusion
Enmore's beautiful boulevards have mature trees whose roots have spread underground for years now. These roots find cracks in clay pipes and penetrate inside to grow fast and cause severe blockages. This is one of the most common reason Enmore residents call for emergency drain clearing.
Grease and fat buildup
Food waste and years of grease and cooking fats washed down kitchen pipes cool down and solidify over the years, making the pipe narrower, blocking the proper water flow. Clay pipes have several joints, and the waste often gets caught there quickly and hinders proper drainage.
Wet wipes and sanitary objects
There are lots of wet wipes on the market now that claim to be flushable. Unfortunately, when flushed, they don't disintegrate like toilet paper and get stuck inside the pipe creating complete blockages. Other foreign objects and soap scum also add to the blockage.
Cracked and collapsed old pipes
Clay pipes have an expiry date. After decades of wear and tear, they form cracks or get severely damaged. The aged infrastructure either has to be cleaned with specialised equipment or the pipe has to be relined to work again. Using DIY methods or a plunger, toilets can be cleaned effectively for a while, but for long-lasting solutions, advanced equipment like water-jetting and CCTV inspection is highly recommended.

How We Clear Blocked Drains — CCTV and Hydro-Jetting
Our blocked drain cleaning method follows a standard process. We eliminate the guesswork and find the underlying cause to prevent future blockages through a three-step process:
CCTV drain inspection
The first step is to use CCTV drain cameras through the drain to find out what is causing the blockage and where it is located. Once we know the reason for the blockage, our experts determine whether cleaning alone will resolve it or if there is structural pipe damage. Learn more about our CCTV camera pipe inspection.
Hydro-jetting
Once we identify the cause, we use high-pressure water-jetting to force water through the pipe to remove all obstructions like tree roots, solidified grease and built-up scale. For simple blockages with softer debris, an electric eel or drain snake is the right tool.
Final check
After cleaning the drain, we run the CCTV camera once again to confirm that the pipe is clear and the normal flow of water is back. Once you are happy with the results, our work is done.
When A Blockage Means You Need Pipe Relining
After the initial CCTV inspection, if our team finds out that the you have collapsed pipes or if there are recurring blockages, then just clearing the drain won't solve it. Your pipe needs to be fixed too.
While complete pipe replacement is an option, pipe relining is a much more cost-effective and reliable service to fix damaged pipes without unnecessary digging. Pipe relining is a trenchless process causing minimal disruption to the everyday life of residents. A resin-saturated liner is inserted in the damaged section of the pipe. After it is cured in place, the surface of the pipe becomes smooth and seamless. Pipe relining offers a long-lasting solution and comes with a design life of 50 years.
