Possible Causes of Blocked Drains

When attempting to fix a blocked drain, it is always worthwhile to find and address the specific cause of the blockage, in order to fully address the problem and prevent further harm.

Blocked drains are a frequent and troublesome problem for property owners, managers and residents. Because they are generally invisible, blocked drains are often only caught well after they start causing damage.

The main causes of blocked drains include:

Poorly installed drains

When drainers do a poor job of installing drains, their clients suffer soon and seriously, with water flow issues leading to blocked drains and causing major headaches.

Accumulation of various objects inside drains

Whether its grease, debris, or any of a wide number of objects, anything that can fit down a drain can get stuck and contribute to an ongoing accumulation of items, blocking water flow and clogging up drains.

Reshaping and movement in the environment

Even if you can’t see them, environmental changes can cause significant damage to the drains in your home or business: everything from changes in the local temperature to growing tree roots and other underground movements can cause your drains to be damaged or broken, which in turn results in them becoming blocked.

Effects of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains are responsible for many problems with residential and commercial plumbing systems, and have a wide range of negative impacts that prevent your home or workplace from running smoothly.

Because blocked drains prevent the flow or current of water through a property’s plumbing system, they frequently lead to water becoming motionless or stagnant. This and other issues caused by blocked drains result in a number of problems ranging from irritating to downright dangerous, as outlined below.

Effects of Blocked Drains: 

Foul odours from blocked drains

Stagnant water caused by blocked drains results in unpleasant odours that can affect your entire property, and the accumulation of waste caused by blocked drains worsens these smells even more, leading to people becoming sick and nauseous.

Delayed drainage

Blocked drains cause delays to the drainage of water and waste in your property, keeping your plumbing system from operating to its full potential.

Water leaks

When water ends up accumulating in blocked drains, this leads to leaks and bursts of your drains. Water leaks create stains and discolouration, and can even distort the surfaces with which they come into contact.

Accumulation of germs and bacteria

Stagnant water, as well as the accumulation of waste that occurs in blocked drains, leads to the growth of harmful bacteria, germs, mildew and mould, causing the spread of allergies, inflammation, viruses and diseases within a household or workplace.

Contaminated water

When blocked drains are not repaired, water becomes stagnant and can come into contact with the passage of waste, both of which lead to contamination. Contaminated water poses a major health risk, as brings viruses and diseases to those involved with the property.

Pest attraction

Stagnant water also serves as an attraction to pests, including mosquitoes and other insects, which carry germs and diseases that may put you, your family or your colleagues at risk.

Flooding

The water leaks caused by blocked drains, if left unaddressed for long enough, will result in flooding, leading to major property damage and a significant health and safety risk.

Structural damage

Blocked drains can cause long-term structural damage to your home or property when water seeps into the foundations of the building. Because this puts you and those around you at risk of harm and injury, it is important to address and tackle blocked drains as soon as possible.

Because blocked drains have so many serious consequences for properties and for people’s health and wellbeing, it is crucial to identify the cause of a blockage, evaluate its extent, and find and implement the most appropriate solution as soon as possible.
