Do I need a Sydney plumber for blocked drain cleaning?

‍

One Sure thing in life is that at some point in time, your property will need a plumber. The question is when do you need a plumber and what can you do to diagnose a issue yourself without raising the white flag right away.

Many posts and threads speak about using vinegar or bleach to unblock a stubborn drain or toilet. Do away with these myths because as soon as you pour these chemicals down the drain or into your toilet bowl you are diluting the strength of the chemical immediately. Secondly if chemicals such as bleach were to break hair ball or lime scale build up in the drain, the time it would take would be weeks or months and after repetitive treatment. This is simply too long to leave the issue as it may get worse over time and possibly damage the pipework in which they stubbornly sit. First step is to go to your local Bunnings or Mitre 10 store and purchase a plunger if you do not have one already. Do not get creative with the type of plunger you choose as there are some alternatives to the traditional plunger which have mixed results. As the saying goes if it ain't broke don’t fix it [pardon the pun].

Take the plunger and make sure the lip of the rubber completely covers the sink hole or the bottom of the toilet. Plunge it a few times carefully listening and feeling for pressure build up and release. Start to pump the plunger up and down to create a vaccum of suction inside the toilet bowl or sink. If you are doing this correctly you will begin to hear the infamous gurgling sound from the bottom of the plunger. A few pumps usually between 5-10 should do the trick and some times we manage to get the drain or toilet unblocked with a single pump. Once this is done we advise to pour an additive such as Ecocare or a strong equivalent to the drain or toilet before flushing. Be careful not t use harmful chemicals such as Drano or other products as these cause more harm to your plumbing system and plumbing joints than good.

For sinks, basins and bath tubs it is a good idea to have some rags or heavy disposable wipes to pick up the debris that will pop back up when using a plunger
