🚩 What Causes Blocked Drains in Campbelltown?

Here are the biggest plumbing emergencies we face as Campbelltown.

Campbelltown’s mix of older homes and newer developments presents a range of plumbing challenges with plum bing emergencies all over the Macarthur region today. It is South West Sydney folks, what do you expect?  Here are some of the most common causes of blocked drains in the area:

1️⃣ Tree Roots Infiltrating Pipes

Very common issue today in Campbelltown is tree root complications. Happens non stop. We at least receive one to two tree root blockage issues in Campbelltown a week. Older suburbs in Campbelltown have mature trees with roots that naturally seek out moisture. They are everywhere in this area.Unfortunately, they often find it in underground pipes, causing cracks and blockages.

2️⃣ Grease and Fat Build-Up

Pouring cooking grease, oil, or food scraps down the kitchen sink leads to solidified fat clogging the pipes over time. I you are doing this, you had better stop.

3️⃣ Hair and Soap Scum

In bathroom drains, hair and soap residue can accumulate, creating stubborn clogs that restrict water flow.

4️⃣ Foreign Objects

Flushing items like wet wipes, sanitary products, or excessive toilet paper is a recipe for toilet blockages. Even “flushable” wipes don’t break down easily! This is plastered over how many other posts on our site.

5️⃣ Broken or Collapsed Pipes

Old, corroded pipes in Campbelltown homes can crack, collapse, or shift, especially after heavy rain or ground movement, leading to drainage issues. This is also very common in the Macarthue region.

🛠️ DIY Tips for Clearing Minor Blockages

We also have other posts in relation to this but while some blocked drains require professional intervention, here are a few DIY methods you can try first. Maybe save yourself some money:

1. Do You Have A Household Plunger?

A standard plunger can create suction and dislodge small blockages in sinks, toilets, and showers. Ensure a tight seal and plunge vigorously. If it is a kitchen sink, try using ot water to mix. This will free up any solid grease and liquify it.

2. Try a Natural Drain Cleaner

Pour hot water ( not boiling ) down the drain, followed by a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Common household trick this one. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then flush with more hot water. This works best for grease or soap-related clogs.

3. Use a Drain Snake (or Coat Hanger Hack)

A basic drain snake or even an unwound coat hanger can help pull out hair or debris causing the blockage. Be gentle to avoid damaging the pipes. Oh…Also, wear gloves if working with the toilet pipes.

💡 Preventing Blocked Drains in the Future

Regular maintenance with our local Campbelltown plumbers can help prevent drain issues before they start. Here are some simple tips:

  • Avoid pouring grease or oil down the sink—use a container instead. If dealing with frying pan oil, don’t do this while it is hot. Let the oil cool off first.
  • Install drain guards to catch hair in showers and sinks. If you do not have drain guards, you can buy kitchen drain guards from your local Bunnings outlet, and at 12 bucks each, they are cheap as chips
  • Flush with hot water ( Not Boiling ) weekly to keep pipes clear of buildup. This helps clear out mush that would solidify otherwise if left permanently.
  • Book an annual drain inspection with Plumber To You for peace of mind.
