Dealing with a Blocked Drain in Lake Macquarie?
If you’ve ever stood ankle-deep in shower water or noticed your kitchen sink taking forever to drain, you already know the frustration of a blocked drain. But what starts as a minor inconvenience can quickly become a major plumbing problem if left untreated.
At LMN Plumbing, we specialise in diagnosing and clearing blocked drains across Lake Macquarie, helping homeowners, property managers, and businesses restore flow fast—and prevent costly water damage.
What Causes Drains to Block?
Understanding the source of the blockage helps you take the right steps to prevent future issues. In Lake Macquarie, common culprits include:
Tree roots – Roots from nearby trees can grow into your pipes, especially in older clay or terracotta systems.
Grease and food waste – Pouring oils or food scraps down the kitchen sink is a major cause of fatbergs.
Hair and soap scum – These build up over time in bathroom drains and restrict flow.
Flushable wipes and sanitary items – Despite labels, these items don’t break down and can easily block your sewer line.
Collapsed or damaged pipes – Age, ground movement, or poor installation can cause pipe sections to sag, collapse or misalign.
