The Science Behind Blocked Drains And Sewers
What Causes Blocked Drains?
Blocked drains often sneak up on you — from hair in the shower to leftover food down the sink. Some common culprits include:
- Hair and soap buildup
- Sanitary products and wet wipes
- Cooking oils and grease
- Food scraps and debris
And don’t forget stormwater drains — they’re often hit by tree roots, broken pipes, or even just age and heavy weather.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the common signs of plumbing issues in a household?
Common signs include dripping faucets, slow drains, water stains on ceilings or walls, low water pressure, and unusual noises coming from pipes.
How can I prevent plumbing problems in my home?
Regular maintenance is key. Inspect pipes, fixtures, and appliances for leaks or signs of wear. Avoid putting grease, hair, or large food particles down drains, and consider installing drain screens. Additionally, insulate pipes during colder months to prevent freezing.
What should I do in case of a plumbing emergency?
Shut off the water supply to the affected area immediately to prevent further damage. If necessary, turn off the main water valve for the entire house. Then, contact a licensed plumber for professional assistance.
How often should I have my plumbing system inspected?
It’s advisable to have a professional plumber inspect your plumbing system annually. This can help catch potential issues before they escalate into costly repairs.
What are the benefits of hiring a licensed plumber?
Licensed plumbers have the necessary training and expertise to handle a wide range of plumbing issues safely and efficiently. They also comply with building codes and regulations, ensuring the work is done correctly.
Can I attempt DIY plumbing repairs?
While minor issues like unclogging a drain or replacing a faucet washer can be DIY projects, more complex plumbing tasks should be left to professionals. Attempting repairs without proper knowledge and tools can result in further damage and safety hazards.
How can I improve water efficiency in my home?
Installing low-flow fixtures, such as faucets, showerheads, and toilets, can significantly reduce water usage and lower utility bills. Additionally, fixing leaks promptly and being mindful of water usage habits can help conserve water.
What is the lifespan of plumbing fixtures and appliances?
The lifespan varies depending on factors such as material quality, usage, and maintenance. Generally, toilets can last 15-25 years, faucets and showerheads around 15 years, and water heaters 8-12 years. Regular maintenance can extend the lifespan of these fixtures and appliances.
How do I know if my water heater needs replacement?
Signs of a failing water heater include insufficient hot water, rusty or discolored water, strange noises, and leaks. If your water heater is more than 10 years old and exhibiting these symptoms, it may be time to consider replacement.
Is it necessary to hire a plumber for bathroom or kitchen remodels?
While minor cosmetic upgrades like replacing fixtures can be DIY projects, major remodels involving plumbing rerouting or installation of new plumbing fixtures should be handled by licensed professionals to ensure proper installation and compliance with building codes.
