Common Causes of Blocked Toilets in Sydney

Ever wondered what causes a blocked toilet in the first place?

By identifying the typical culprits behind toilet plumbing issues, you can take proactive steps to avoid the inconvenience and potential damage caused – ensuring a smooth and trouble-free plumbing system.

Flushing Non-Flushable Items

Think twice before you flush! Items like wipes, sanitary products, and paper towels might seem harmless – but they’re a big no-no for the loo. They don’t break down like toilet paper and can easily lead to pesky blockages in your toilet plumbing.

Tree Root Intrusion

As nature’s sneaky culprits, tree roots can quietly invade sewer lines, causing unexpected clogged toilets. They grow towards the moisture in pipes, leading to significant plumbing headaches if not addressed.

Incorrect Plumbing Installation

Even the best toilets can fail with incorrect installation. Poor toilet plumbing setup can lead to inefficient flushing and recurring blockages, making a minor issue a major hassle.

Foreign Objects

Kids’ toys, utensils, or other unexpected items can quickly become accidental plumbing disasters. When flushed, these foreign objects can lead to serious blockages, meaning an urgent call to your friendly blocked toilet plumbers. (That’s us!)

Earthenware Pipes

Many homes in Sydney are still connected to the sewer using the original Earthenware or Clay pipes. over time, these can deteriorate and lead to recurring blockages.

To kick things off, we need to get to the bottom of the problem. Our team uses CCTV inspections to peer into the depths of your plumbing, pinpointing the exact cause of the blockage. This thorough approach ensures we tackle the root issue of your blocked toilet, not just the symptoms.

Manual Clearing Techniques

Sometimes, a gentle touch is all you need. For less complicated blockages, we use trusty plungers and hand augers. These manual techniques are surprisingly effective for clearing minor clogs and ensuring your toilet plumbing is back in action without heavy machinery.
