Slow drainage is not always an indicator of where a blockage occurs. The grease might be stuck somewhere inside the kitchen piping, hair and soap scum is likely to block the shower drain, or the obstruction might be located farther along the piping. Also, foul-smelling drains, gurgling sounds and water gathering around a home feature may be signals for a blockage.

Local Knowledge

WHAT ARE THE BLOCKAGES IN DRAINS IN ROSEVILLE?

Roseville’s municipal services face a recurring problem with drainage due to two factors: aging infrastructure and old homes. Local records pinpoint grease, organic debris and serious clogs as causes of the issue. There could also be other reasons for the problem, e.g. buildup in toilet drains, unsuitable waste from toilets, damage to the pipe.

Grease and Food Waste

Kitchen drains are susceptible to the accumulation of oils, fats, and waste from food. When the grease cools, it adheres to the walls of the pipe and captures other materials. The narrowing of the opening leads to slow draining of water or backing up into the sink. Strainers can catch scraps, while used oils and greases should go to the bin.

Hair and Soap Scum

Soap residue in the shower and bathroom drains can combine with hair. The accumulated debris makes it harder for water to flow and can end up blocking the drain. Light clogs near the drain can be removed easily, while persistent slow drainage may require expert intervention.

Damaged Pipes and Tree Roots

Roots of trees will travel towards moisture and can, therefore, penetrate the smallest cracks and displacements in the underground sewer pipe. The entrance of roots can increase the size of an existing defect and lead to severe blockage of the sewer. Diagnosis of tree root intrusion should be done by inspection of the sewer pipe rather than assuming the problem based on the presence of trees.

Toilet Waste and Outdoor Debris

Wet wipes, menstrual products and paper towel do not decompose in the same manner as toilet paper. They have the ability to get stuck in the pipes and cause stubborn toilet blockage. Outside, leaves, soil and natural waste can block sewers, gutters and drainage pipes, especially during heavy rains.
