Do you have a blocked drain?
If just one sink is draining slowly, the blockage might be in that sink’s drain pipe. If your sink, shower and toilet are all struggling to drain, the blockage could be in your home’s main drain, which carries wastewater away from them all. BHPS will investigate, determine the exact cause and advise whether the pipe needs clearing or repairing.
Signs worth checking
- A sink, shower or toilet drains slowly or makes gurgling sounds.
- Water rises in your shower or sink when you flush the toilet.
- Bad smells or overflows return soon after the drain was cleared.
What’s the next step?
Not sure how serious it is? Call BHPS or send us a message using the contact form below. Tell us your suburb, what isn’t draining properly and when it started. If it has happened before or you’ve already tried to clear it, mention that too. You don’t need to know what’s causing it. Describe what you’re seeing and we’ll help you work out the next step. If sewage is overflowing or your only toilet is unusable, call rather than waiting for a form response.
Blocked Drains in Melbourne
Fast, licensed residential plumbing with clear communication, practical options, and tidy workmanship from start to finish.
Drain diagnosis
We investigate whether the blockage is caused by grease, wipes, tree roots, broken pipework, or a local fixture issue.
Professional clearing
Blocked sinks, showers, floor wastes, toilets, and sewer lines are cleared using suitable equipment for the problem.
Practical repair recommendations
If the drain is damaged or vulnerable to repeat blockages, we explain the repair or maintenance options clearly.
Residential-first approach
We focus on restoring normal drainage with as little disruption to your home and routine as possible.
How We Handle It
Find out what’s blocked
We check which sinks, showers or toilets are affected and ask whether the blockage has happened before.
Clear the drain and check the cause
We use a clearing method suited to your drain and investigate signs of damage or a deeper problem. You’ll know if more than clearing is needed.
Get the water flowing again
We check that the drain is working and explain what can help prevent another blockage, including any repairs we recommend.
Why Blocked Drains Matters
The right plumbing fix protects your home, reduces the chance of repeat problems, and gives you confidence the system is working safely.
Restore normal flow
Proper clearing helps sinks, showers, and toilets drain the way they should.
Reduce overflow risk
Early action can help prevent indoor flooding, unsanitary backups, and water damage.
Avoid repeat callouts
Diagnosing the cause gives you a better long-term fix than repeated short-term clearing alone.

Blocked Drains FAQs
Practical questions about blocked drains, assessment and the next step.
Why does my drain keep blocking?
Recurring blockages often point to an underlying issue like tree roots, pipe damage, poor fall, or build-up that is not being fully removed.
Can you clear blocked toilets and sewers?
Yes. BHPS handles everything from single fixture blockages through to more serious sewer and boundary drain issues.
Do you inspect drains with cameras?
Where needed, yes. CCTV drain inspection helps confirm what is causing the blockage and what repair is most appropriate.
Does a slow sink mean my whole sewer is blocked?
Not necessarily. The blockage could be in that sink’s drain pipe. If several sinks, showers or toilets are backing up, the problem could be in the main drain they share. Tell us what is affected and stop using anything that overflows.
