FAQs about Drain and Sewer Unblocking

1. What are common causes of drain blockages?

• Toilets: Non-flushable items like wipes, sanitary products, and toys; mineral buildup; tree root intrusion (in the main sewer line)
• Sinks: Food scraps, grease, hair, soap residue
• Baths: Hair, soap scum, bath product residue
• Outdoor Gullies: Leaves, debris, mud, and silt
• Main Sewer Line: Tree roots, collapsed pipes, heavy grease, or non-flushable items flushed throughout the home.

2. How can I tell if I have a blocked drain?

• Slow draining: Water takes longer than usual to disappear.
• Gurgling sounds: You hear unusual noises from your drains.
• Bad odors: Unpleasant smells emanate from your drains.
• Multiple blockages: Two or more fixtures are backing up (e.g., toilet and shower).
• Overflowing: Water backs up into your sink, shower, or toilet.

3. Can I unblock my drains myself?

Simple clogs might be cleared with a plunger or store-bought drain cleaner. However, for persistent blockages, deep blockages, or signs of sewer line issues, it’s always best to call a professional like Aquafix. DIY attempts can worsen the problem or even damage your pipes.

4. What are the advantages of professional drain unblocking?

• Expertise: Professionals have the necessary tools and experience to locate and resolve the blockage effectively.
• Safety: Using harsh chemicals or handling drain snakes improperly is a safety hazard. Professionals manage these risks safely.
• Efficiency: Trained plumbers diagnose the problem and clear it quickly, saving you time and frustration.
• Long-term solutions: Professionals can identify underlying issues and suggest solutions to prevent recurring problems.

5. How often should drains be professionally cleaned?

Most homes do not need regular professional drain cleaning unless they have a history of recurring blockages. However, proactive maintenance inspections are recommended, depending on your home’s age, tree roots in the area, and other risk factors. Aquafix can advise you on a maintenance schedule that makes sense for your needs.
