Why Is It Important To Fix Blocked Drains Early?
Fixing blocked drains early is essential if you want to avoid potential problems that can be both frustrating and costly. That’s because blocked drains can lead to foul odours emanating from your pipes and drainage system, making it difficult to be indoors for any length of time.
Blocked drains can also lead to flooding, which can cause extensive damage to your property, assets and belongings. Flooding can also cause health hazards due to the growth of mould and the spread of harmful bacteria. Fixing blocked drains early also helps prevent damage to your buildings' foundations, walls and floors.
- Reduces foul odours and the need for major repairs.
- Avoids flooding and the growth of harmful bacteria.
- Prevents damage to buildings and assets.
If you have blocked drains, it’s crucial that you contact the team at MI Plumbing as soon as you notice any of the signs below. Early detection keeps your property clean, safe, comfortable and functional.
- Water is draining slowly from your sinks, baths, showers or toilets.
- Obnoxious smells are noticed around internal or external drains.
- You hear a gurgling or bubbling noise from the drains.
- The water level in your toilets is rising.
- You’ve noticed dampness on the floors or walls near drains.
How Do We Clear Blocked Drains?
We use two different methods to clear blocked drains: CCTV Drain Cameras and high-pressure water jetting.
CCTV Drain Cameras
CCTV drain cameras are an essential tool used by our team of professional plumbers to clear blocked drains. This technology involves inserting a specialised camera into your drains to identify the location and cause of the blockage.
With the help of CCTV drain cameras, our plumbers can quickly identify the blockage, whether it's caused by debris, roots or other issues. Once the blockage is identified, we provide the most effective solution to clear it, preventing further damage to your pipes and property.
This technology is especially useful for identifying hard-to-reach blockages and preventing damage to your pipes that may occur when using traditional methods.
High-Pressure Water Jetting
High-pressure water jetting is an effective and environmentally friendly method to clear blocked drains. This technique involves using a specialised machine to blast water through your pipes at high speeds, dislodging any blockages in its path.
High-pressure water jetting is extremely effective in clearing stubborn blockages caused by debris, grease or roots.
It's also non-invasive and doesn’t damage your pipes. With the help of high-pressure water jetting, our plumbers can clear your blocked drains quickly, efficiently and with minimal disruption to your property. This saves you time and money in the long run.
How Can You Tell If Your Drain Is Blocked?
Not sure if your drain is blocked? Here are five signs that you need to call MI Plumbing today!
- Water is draining slowly from your sinks, baths, showers or toilets.
- Obnoxious smells are noticed around internal or external drains.
- You hear a gurgling or bubbling noise from the drains.
- The water level in your toilets is rising.
- You’ve noticed dampness on the floors or walls near drains.
If you notice that your sink, shower or bathtub is draining slower than usual, it may be a sign that your drain is blocked. This can be caused by a build-up of hair, soap or other debris in your pipes. Ignoring this issue can lead to water backing up, which can cause significant damage to your property. Contact MI Plumbing immediately to prevent the problem from getting worse.
Foul smells from drains can indicate blocked pipes with stagnant wastewater, causing unpleasant odours that can spread throughout your property. Call MI Plumbing immediately to clear the blockage and eliminate the unpleasant smell, ensuring a clean and comfortable living or working environment.
Gurgling or bubbling noises from drains can indicate blocked pipes with trapped air, preventing water flow and leading to potential damage to your property. Contact Mi Plumbing immediately to clear the blockage and prevent further damage to your pipes and property.
Rising water levels in your toilets indicate a blocked pipe in the main sewer line. Ignoring this issue can cause sewage to back up, leading to severe property damage. Contact MI Plumbing immediately to clear the blockage and prevent further damage to your property.
Dampness on floors or walls can indicate blocked drains, causing water to back up and lead to mould growth. Contact MI Plumbing immediately to clear the blockage and prevent the damage from extending further into your property.
