There are a number of things that cause your sewer drains to block up these include, tree roots, foreign objects entering the piping system and cracked seals due to age. Whether it is your entire drainage system or just a basin waste that is blocked, we can fix your problem.
Most Common Causes of Blocked Drains:
HAIR
Hair is a big culprit for drain blockages, as it can bind with grease and other sticky substances to form blockages. The best way to deal with hair blockages is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. Ensure all drains have guards to catch hair and clear these regularly.
FOOD WASTE
Food waste should never go down the drain, even when you have a garbage disposal in your sink. Instead, set up a composting pile to get rid of food waste. This is particularly important for waste like tea leaves and coffee grounds that donโt break down. Other foods to be cautious of include grease or oil as they will solidify in the pipes and cause a blockage. Instead, absorb oil on a paper towel and throw it in the compost.
TREE ROOTS
The smallest cracks or leaks in your underground pipes can attract tree root growth. Once inside your pipes tree roots quickly grow larger, obstructing water flow and causing pipe damage. Clearing tree roots from pipes can be complex and require rooter service, pressure jet cleaning, trenchless repair, or even excavation. Review the root structure of your trees and plants and monitor the condition of your drains to prevent an extensive and costly repair.
FOREIGN OBJECTS
Small objects can find their way into your plumbing supply and wreak havoc. Nothing but water, toilet paper, and human waste should go down your toilet, drain, or sink. Any other object should be disposed of responsibly in the trash, compost, or recycling. If any foreign matter has gotten into your plumbing supply and is causing issues, youโll likely need professional help to remove it and ensure your plumbing returns to normal. TOILET PAPER Too much toilet paper can clog your drains and stop your toilets from flushing. If water can still run through your toilet when flushed, you can use a plunger to shift and dissolve some of the toilet paper. But if your toilet just fills without draining, youโll need to call a plumber to take care of the blockage for you.

You know you're old when you're excited by a toilet replacement, but I seriously couldn't be happier with the job Elliot from Fawcett did in replacing our toilet system. Good communication, on time, fast turn around and I'm very happy with the product. Would recommendPosted on Jonathan Reid04/12/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt was very professional, proactive and a pleasure to deal with as he conscientiously diagnosed and cleared my drains.Posted on Bronwyn Munn01/12/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and knowledgeable group, wouldnโt hesitate to recommend.Posted on Julie-Anne Ash29/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What great service we received from Fawcett Plumbing. Elliott was prompt, polite and very knowledgeable. He treated our house with respect - taking his boot off at the front door and cleaning up any mess that was made. He not only replaced our broken toilet which is the reason we called them out - but also unblocked our kitchen drain after I added into conversation โoh while you are here could you look at this tooโ Highly recommended.Posted on MattyGP25/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I genuinely donโt know what kind of magic Matt practices, but calling him a plumber feels like an understatement. This man is a waterflow wizard, a pipe whisperer, and possibly part superhero. From the moment he arrived, his professionalism and honesty were on another level. He didnโt just fix the problem, he practically transformed my plumbing into a work of art. His workmanship? Flawless. Meticulous. Surgical. Iโm convinced he could install a tap blindfolded with one hand tied behind his back and it would still turn out perfect. Everything he touched looked and functioned better than new. He explains everything clearly, gives honest advice, and you can feel his integrity from the second he walks in the door. Iโve never met someone so committed to doing the job right. He doesnโt cut corners, he polishes them. He treats your home with respect, cleans up like he was never there, and leaves you wondering why every tradesperson in the country isnโt trained by him. Honestly, if Matt told me my house needed to be turned upside down for better water pressure, Iโd hand him the wrench myself. Thatโs how much trust he inspires. If youโre looking for a plumber whoโs reliable, honest, ridiculously skilled, and honestly just an all-round legend, stop scrolling. Matt is the one. Heโs raised the bar so high other plumbers are going to need a ladder to reach it. Highest recommendation possible. Matt, youโre a legend. Keep doing what you do.
