Got a Blocked Shower Drain? Give Plumbdog a Whistle

The climate here in Perth means our showers see a great deal of use, and a blocked shower drain can be a major inconvenience, but help it by hand from the quick response team at Plumbdog Plumbing in Perth. Although a blocked shower drain is usually a result of hair and excess soap scum, which is easily removed, there are times when you will need a professional plumbing team to provide a long-term solution rather than a quick fix. The first thing you will probably notice if you have an immovable blockage in your shower drain is very slow drainage. This, in combination with a gargling sound or an unpleasant smell, means it’s time to call in the top dogs from Plumbdog.

With a team of experienced plumbers on hand for emergencies, we’re considered the pack’s leaders among Perth plumbers when it comes to blocked drains.

How we handle a Blocked Shower Drain

Shortly after you’ve given us a whistle, one of our friendly Plumbdogs will arrive at your property to assess what needs doing to unblock your shower drain. We arrive fully laden with state-of-the-art equipment and all the materials we need to address and remedy any blocked shower drain problem and get your bathroom firing on all cylinders again.

The first step is setting up the high-pressure water jetter via a drain access point to clear or pierce the blockage to release the water.  We then engage our innovative Nano CCTV drain camera to find the root cause of the blockage. Either way, your Plumbdog plumber will locate the cause of the blocked shower drain, recommend how to proceed with necessary drain repairs and offer either a quick fix or a permanent solution. 

Regardless of the complex issue, you can rely on a Plumbdog plumber to take on the task like a dog on a bone.

Making Things Easy for You

Having a blocked shower drain is hassle enough, so your plumber must deal with the job as quickly as possible and minimise any further disruption. The team at Plumbdog aims to do just this. When you contact us, you won’t be left peering out of your window like a lost puppy waiting for us to arrive, as we give you a firm time slot and send an SMS before our arrival.

We also make it easy to pay when the job is completed, offering several options, such as cash/credit card payments and EFTPOS facilities. This attention to customer service marks us out as Perth’s favourite plumbers and the people to turn to first in case of a blocked shower drain.

Blocked Drain Frequently Asked Questions

Blocked drains can be caused by various “ruff” factors, like hair, soap scum, tree roots, and food scraps finding their way into the pipes. These pesky blockages can build up over time, creating a clog that no pup—or person—wants to deal with!

If your drains are draining slower than a sleepy bulldog, or you hear gurgling noises (like a dog dreaming), you could have a blockage. Standing water, foul odours, and backed-up fixtures are also warning “barks” that you might need a professional inspection.

Some minor clogs can be cleared with a plunger or drain cleaner, but larger blockages are a whole different “barking lot.” A professional has the right tools and techniques, like high-pressure water jetting and CCTV cameras, to sniff out and fix even the toughest blockages.

Preventative care is the “leash” you need! Avoid letting hair, grease, food scraps, and other debris down the drain. Consider drain guards to catch pesky particles before they cause a clog. A regular check-up with a professional can keep your drains clear and “pawsitive.”

Absolutely! Our phones are answered every day of the week and we have obedient Plumbdogs available on weekends to help you sniff out the problem and get your drains flowing again. Whether it’s a late-night backup or a weekend emergency, our team is ready to answer the “call of the wild!”
