WHY YOU SHOULD HAVE YOUR DRAINS CLEANED IN YOUR MELBOURNE HOME

Regular drain cleaning in your Melbourne home is crucial for maintaining a smooth and efficient plumbing system—one that won’t surprise you with unexpected blockages.

Over time, drains can accumulate debris such as hair, food residue, and grease, leading to blockages that disrupt water flow and cause unpleasant odours. Without proper cleaning, these blockages can lead to more serious plumbing issues and costly repairs.

Professional drain cleaning by a licensed plumber, like Blockages Today, not only removes accumulated debris but also helps prevent potential damage by addressing early signs of blockages.

By investing in regular drain cleaning for your Melbourne home, you ensure a healthier plumbing system, avoid inconvenient blockages, and extend the lifespan of your drain pipes.

How we will clean drains

HIGH PRESSURE WATER JET

High-pressure water jets are highly effective for quickly cleaning drains and removing blockages. With over 30 years of experience, we have encountered a wide range of drain issues requiring resolution. A high-pressure water jet blaster is our go-to tool for clearing drains, and for good reason. It uses pressurised water to effectively blast away debris, ensuring swift and efficient drainage solutions.

CCTV DRAIN INSPECTION

If your drain cannot be unblocked using our high-pressure water jet, a CCTV drain inspection may be required.

Our state of the art CCTV drain camera provides a detailed inspection of your pipes’ interior. It meticulously examines every turn and junction for signs of damage. This thorough assessment allows us to accurately identify the cause of blockages—including blocked toilets, drain pipes, or slow-draining sewer lines—enabling us to address the issue with precision.
