Melbourne Plumbing Co specialises in diagnosing and fixing blocked sewerage pipes and are available 24/7 for when you have a problem. Sewerage pipes can become blocked when tree and plant roots invade and destroy them, or when pipes become old and brittle. A build up of waste material in sewerage pipes can back up and cause serious damage to your property.

Melbourne Plumbing Co. are here 24/7 to unblock your storm water drains and pipes. These drains and pipes often become blocked after heavy rain washes debris and rubbish into them and causes them to block and overflow. This can very quickly lead to serious damage to your property. Don’t try to tackle the problem on your own – call us as soon as you can!

Having a blocked sink or shower is one of the most common problems in any household and can become a serious issue. Avoid pouring dangerous and environmentally damaging chemicals down your drains to unblock them - call Melbourne Plumbing Co instead - we are available 24/7! Our team of professionals can unblock your sink or shower and have you back to normal in no time.

Outdoor drains protect paths, gardens and building foundations by carrying water away from the property. Roots, silt, leaves and collapsed pipe sections can cause pooling or overflow. We can inspect the drainage, clear blockages and recommend repair or replacement when a pipe has failed.

In houses, units and converted properties, several fixtures can connect to the same branch before reaching the main drain. A slow sink is different from a sewer restriction affecting a toilet and floor waste, and both are different from an outdoor drain that only overflows during rain.
We use the symptom pattern to choose a clearing method. High-pressure water jetting or other professional equipment may be appropriate depending on the drain. When the fault returns, CCTV inspection can help identify roots, a damaged joint, deformation or collapse.
Clearing restores flow; it does not rebuild a damaged drain. If the pipe is serviceable after an obstruction is removed, no excavation may be needed. If inspection shows a confined defect, a targeted repair may be sufficient. A badly damaged or repeatedly failing line may need partial or full replacement.
Advise us about shared driveways, locked common areas, tenant contacts and parking restrictions. Accurate access information helps reduce disruption and prepares the right approach for the visit.

Some minor fixture blockages can be resolved by removing accessible debris. A plumber is recommended when the blockage recurs, affects several fixtures, causes sewage or stormwater to overflow, or may involve damaged underground pipework. Identifying the cause helps determine whether clearing, repair or replacement is required.
For a minor sink blockage, removing visible debris or cleaning a removable trap may help. Avoid corrosive drain chemicals and stop if water is overflowing or the blockage affects several fixtures. Recurring sewer or stormwater blockages should be assessed by a licensed plumber because the cause may be deeper in the drainage system.
