Blocked Toilets

A blocked toilet is annoying to say the least and always seem to happen at the most inconvenient time.

If you have a blocked toilet you will notice the water level will take longer than normal to lower after a flush, there are many reasons for this. Our plumbers have repaired many blocked toilets throughout brisbane and its surrounding suburbs.

You may want to attempt to clear the blocked toilet yourself before calling us out.

If this is the case we have outlined some steps for you:

Steps for Repairing a Blocked Toilet

Do not repeatedly flush a blocked toilet

Remove excess water from your blocked toilet by placing some old newspaper down around the blocked toilet. Using old washing up gloves and a cup scoop the water out from the bowl into a bucket
Place a plunger in the blocked toilet
Push down hard with both hands
Repeat this 5 – 6 times
This action will force the water down the pipes to dislodge the blockage

If the water level in the blocked toilet does not lower to its normal level the blockage has not cleared you will need to have your blocked toilet repaired by the experts.

Blocked Drains

Blocked Sewer and Stormwater Drainage Brisbane

Rain water collected from your roof and downpipes flows into stormwater drains off your property to soak wells or a stormwater sump. Blocked stormwater drainage in Australia is often caused by trees and tree roots, At Bacal and Co Brisbane we find that 95%of blockages are caused by tree roots.

Tree roots search for moisture and warmth.
Tree roots creep in through small cracks and joins in pipes, grow and caused blocked stormwater drainage.
Excess leaf and tree debris not cleared from your gutters also lead to blocked stormwater drainage.

Once a tree root gets into a sewer or stormwater pipe, they will keep growing and get bigger, and eventually block the whole sewer or stormwater pipe, At Bacal and Co Brisbane we recommend you dig up that pipe and replace it and get it fixed once and for all, if not you will have your plumber returning to site on a regular basis, you dont want that now do you? Because its only going to cost you more money.
We incorporate the use of Drain Camera’s so that we can pin point the problematic section of drains to cause minimum disruption to your gardens and landscaping.We can provide you with a DVD of the footage we take of your drains and show you the causes.
