There are several reasons why drains can become blocked, and understanding the causes is key to preventing future issues. Common causes of blockages include invasive tree roots, food scraps, the flushing of foreign objects, and the gradual accumulation of soap, hair, oil, and grease. Over time, these materials build up and restrict the flow of water, causing slow drainage or complete blockages.
At CGC Plumbing Services, we offer professional and reliable water leak detection services to quickly identify and resolve drain and pipe issues. Using the latest leak detection technology, including CCTV drain cameras, we can accurately locate the source of blockages, whether it’s a burst pipe, tree root intrusion, or a damaged drain. This advanced technology allows us to pinpoint the exact problem, saving time and minimising disruption, so we can carry out repairs efficiently.
