Plumbing problem guide

Why does my drain keep blocking?

Recurring blocked-drain causes and signs that the problem is deeper than one fixture.

What to notice

The pattern helps narrow the fault

  • Slow drainage returns after clearing
  • Several fixtures gurgle
  • Wastewater backs up elsewhere

Note when the problem began, what changed immediately beforehand and whether it is constant or intermittent. Photographs can provide context, but they cannot confirm that equipment is safe.

What we check

A structured professional assessment

  • Local trap and branch line
  • Main drain flow and obstruction
  • Pipe condition, fall and root intrusion
