Drain Patrol are residential and domestic drainage experts, and unblocking 

residential drainage is what they do best. If you have a blocked drain, things can get unpleasant fast, and Drain Patrol know that even a half-blocked drain can quickly become a health and home hazard if left unchecked, so they pride themselves on getting the job done fast.

If you’re not sure if you have a drain blockage that needs professional help, Drain Patrol have complied a checklist for you.

1. Toilets unable to flush or blocked toilets.

2. Sinks not draining or clogged drains.

3. Water overflowing from drains.

4. Unusual pools of groundwater.

5. Downpipes spilling water.

6. Increased amounts of bugs or flies around drains.

7. Gurgling noises coming from your sink.

Any or all of the above could be symptomatic of a larger problem. If your home is suffering from multiple issues at once, it’s best to get the professionals in as fast as possible, as residential sewer problems can get more costly the longer you leave them.

At the end of the day, every drain can be unblocked – it all comes down to time. In Auckland, drains tend to block due to old pipes, ground shifting, tree roots, foreign objects like flushed toys, or a build-up of fat or other waste material.

All of these issues have solutions, but the trick is often getting at the drain itself. Some homes have sewer systems that run under concrete, between walls, under gardens, etc, but rest assured, Drain Patrol will be able to pinpoint your problem, and give you a fair quote before working quickly to deal with the problem.

What’s more, their drain cleaning experts can work to help prevent further blockages occurring in the future, saving you time and money later on down the line, so for more information on industrial drain cleaners, domestic drain cleaners and private drain inspections please go to www.drainpatrol.co.nz .
