Signs of a Blocked Drain

A blocked drain can be incredibly annoying (and smelly!). From bad smells to water that won’t leave the sink, a blocked drain can cause further damage if not sorted out properly.

If you live in the Coffs Harbour area and think you have a blocked drain, it’s important to know the signs of a blocked drain, how you can fix it, and when it might be time to call our professionals to help.

Blocked drains might not seem like a big deal, but if not treated, they can lead to property damage and can even cause health problems for you and your family.

Here are some of the signs of a blocked drain that you need to look out for:

• There is a foul smell in or around the drain.
• The drain is regularly overflowing.
• You regularly hear gurgling sounds, which indicates that the water is pooling in the pipe.
• The drain is not doing its job: draining water away.

If you have noticed any of these signs, there is quite a strong chance that your drain is blocked.

If your drain is still blocked after you have tried to unblock it yourself, or you think there is a more serious reason as to why your drain is blocked, it’s time to call in the professionals.
