Drainage in Bundaberg

Restoring Flow

Blocked drains can be problems for residences and commercial buildings. Ian Stanley Plumbing has the expert to find and clear the problem.

Available for both drains and sewerage pipes, Ian can assess damage up to 60m deep using an inspection camera. If you have a blockage, he can clear it. If the issue is more severe, Ian can recommend the appropriate action.

Most blockages come with their own problems. Clogs can be caused by sediment build-up, foreign objects such as hair and sand, grease build-up, or even tree roots. As well as blockages, pipes can be cracked, leaking or even misaligned.

If you have a blocked kitchen drain, water standing in a bath, shower or sink, or a toilet that refuses to flush, we can quickly investigate your drain or sewer issue and get it flowing again.

Grease is the Problem

Grease is often the word when it comes to blocked drains. In commercial kitchens and restaurants, and even your home kitchen, grease builds up in drains, forcing water and waste to pass through a small aperture.

Grease, oils and fats can coat the inside of pipes over a huge distance. In commercial kitchens, sink traps can fill up until the residue backs up and blocks the system. This can cause serious damage, not to mention being smelly, messy and unhygienic!

Most of the problem comes from the food we eat. Every time we wash a plate, pot or use the dishwasher, the oils from of our food pass into the drain in liquid form, eventually cooling and forming a solid with other residue including hair, eggshells and coffee grinds.

While there are some DIY options, but it pays to hire a professional like Ian Stanley Plumbing. Our team has the experience, expertise and equipment to help unblock the system—and pass on a few tips on how to avoid a repeat of the problem.
