Blocked drains can occur for many reasons, and identifying the cause is the key to preventing it from happening again. The most common causes include:
Hair and soap residue – Regularly clog bathroom sinks, shower drains, and traps.
Food scraps and grease – A major source of kitchen sink blockages, especially when fats and oils are poured down the drain.
Sanitary items and wipes – Non-flushable products that easily block toilets and sewer lines.
Tree roots – In search of water, they can crack into underground pipes and cause severe blockages.
Foreign objects – Toys, jewellery, or small items accidentally dropped into drains.
Heavy rain or stormwater – Can overload outdoor drainage and result in flooding.
Grease and waste in commercial kitchens – A frequent issue for cafes, restaurants, and food businesses.
If you’ve noticed slow draining sinks, gurgling pipes, or unpleasant odours, don’t delay. Call Sutherland Emergency Plumbers for expert inspection and quick drain-clearing solutions.

Risk of water damage – Overflowing sinks, toilets, or stormwater drains can seriously damage floors, walls, and fixtures.
Bad odours – Blocked drains often give off strong, sewage-like smells that spread through your home or business.
Health risks – Standing water and waste encourage bacteria, mould, and even pests.
Higher costs later – Small issues can escalate into expensive repairs, including pipe replacement and water damage restoration.
Pipe stress and bursts – Excess pressure from blockages can cause cracks or bursts in your plumbing.
Everyday inconvenience – Slow drains make daily tasks like showering or washing dishes frustrating.

Based on our years of plumbing experience, most drain pipes last around 15 years, though this depends on the pipe material and how often it’s used. Stormwater pipes can typically last 20 years or more since they only carry water during heavy rain and aren’t constantly under pressure.
Sewer pipes, however, are in daily use and usually need repair or replacement about every 10 years. While regular home maintenance can help, a professional inspection is the best way to prevent unexpected damage and costly repairs.
At Sutherland Emergency Plumbers, we can inspect your drainage system and provide expert solutions to extend the lifespan and efficiency of your pipes.
Tree root intrusion is a leading cause of blocked drains, and if not addressed quickly, it can lead to serious pipe damage. That’s why at Sutherland Emergency Plumbers, we provide expert sewer tree root control as part of our blocked drain services. Our licensed plumbers use targeted foam herbicide treatments to remove invasive roots inside your pipes—while ensuring nearby trees and plants remain unharmed.
This preventative solution stops roots from regrowing and helps your drainage system stay clear. We also handle vacuum pit cleaning, septic tank servicing, and drain clearing for larger tanks and systems.
If your pipes are already damaged, we often recommend pipe relining—a cost-effective, no-dig repair method that restores strength and flow without disrupting your yard. Contact us today to book an inspection or learn more about our solutions.
