Blocked Drains Robina

Blocked toilets from tenant use

Commonly caused by wipes, sanitary products, paper towel, excess toilet paper or foreign items being flushed. These can become urgent quickly if overflowing or if it is the only toilet.

Sewer overflows

A blocked sewer line can cause wastewater to back up through toilets, showers, floor wastes or external gullies. This needs fast action due to hygiene and property damage risks.

Stormwater blockages after heavy rain

Heavy rain can expose blocked stormwater drains, pits and downpipes. Tenants may report pooling water, overflowing gutters or flooding near doors.

Tree roots in old drainage lines

Older rental properties can suffer recurring blockages from tree roots entering damaged or ageing pipes. CCTV inspection may be needed if the issue keeps returning.

Previous tenant misuse

Grease, wipes, hair, food scraps or foreign objects from previous occupants can cause ongoing drainage issues. Clear photos and reporting help identify the likely cause.

Kitchen sink blockages

Usually caused by grease, oil, food waste or coffee grounds. These often start as slow drainage before becoming fully blocked.

Bathroom drain blockages

Hair, soap scum and general build-up can block showers, basins and floor wastes. Signs include slow drainage, smells, gurgling or water pooling.

Recurring blockages

Repeated blockages can point to damaged pipework, poor fall, tree roots or collapsed drains. These issues may need further investigation and a proper repair plan.
