Your Local Experts in Clearing Blocked Drains in Adelaide
Blocked drains aren’t just inconvenient — they can lead to water damage, bad smells, and even health hazards if left untreated. Stagnant water trapped in a blocked drain creates a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, mould and fungi. These can cause respiratory issues, skin irritation, and allergic reactions — especially in children, the elderly, or those with asthma. If the blockage occurs in a sewer line, it can force raw sewage back up through toilets, sinks or drains. This exposes your home to dangerous pathogens like E. coli, Salmonella and Hepatitis A, posing serious health risks. That’s why it’s important to act fast and call a team that knows Adelaide plumbing inside out. From minor clogs to major sewer blockages, we handle it all!

Recurring blockages often mean a deeper problem. Our drain camera inspections can diagnose issues like root intrusion or collapsed pipes so we can fix them permanently.
What causes blocked drains?
Blocked drains can be caused by a range of issues, both inside and outside the home. Common culprits include tree root intrusion (especially in older Adelaide suburbs), grease and food waste buildup in kitchen pipes, hair and soap scum in bathroom drains, and flushing wet wipes or sanitary products down the toilet. Foreign objects, structural pipe issues like cracks or collapse, and debris from stormwater runoff can also lead to persistent blockages. If you’re dealing with recurring drain issues, it’s best to get a professional inspection to find and fix the root cause.
