The causes of sewer drains becoming blocked in Sydney include;
The majority of Sydney homeowners only become aware that their sewer drain is blocked when there is wild weather including storms and heavy rain. Sewer drains do have the capacity to hold quite a large volume of water, but if there is a fast and heavy deluge of water they can quickly overflow if there is some debris blocking the water from entering the drain. The signs you will see when there is a blockage are gurgling sounds from the drain, your property starting to flood and drain grates flooding during huge downpours. If you notice any of these signs you must contact a reliable Sydney plumber as soon as possible, to prevent extensive damage to your home or business.
