What Causes Blocked Drains?
Blocked drains can happen for a number of reasons. Over time materials can build up inside the pipe or tree roots can grow into the drainage line causing water to slow down or stop flowing completely.
Identifying the exact cause of the blockage is important because it determines the correct method to clear the drain and prevent the problem returning.
• Tree roots growing into sewer pipes
• Grease and food build-up from kitchens
• Hair and soap residue in bathroom drains
• Foreign objects flushed down toilets
• Damaged or collapsed underground pipes
• Stormwater drains blocked by leaves or debris
How We Clear Blocked Drains
Novaflow uses professional drain clearing equipment to locate and remove blockages properly. Our process typically begins with a CCTV drain inspection to identify the exact cause of the blockage.
Once the problem is located we use high pressure water jetting to remove tree roots, grease build-up, debris and other obstructions inside the pipe.
If a damaged or collapsed pipe is found we can recommend the correct repair solution to permanently fix the problem.
• CCTV drain inspections
• High pressure water jetting
• Tree root removal
• Drain pipe repairs
• Preventative drain maintenance
If you notice signs of a blocked drain, early inspection can prevent more serious damage to the drainage system.
