Blocked Drain Plumber in Research

Research is a semi-rural suburb bordering the Yarra Valley, characterised by lifestyle properties and older homes with established gardens and mature tree coverage.

Blocked drains in Research are a common call for Goats Plumbing. Whether it is a slow shower drain, a blocked toilet, a backed-up kitchen sink, or a sewer main that has stopped flowing, we have the equipment and experience to clear it properly and get things moving again.

We use professional-grade equipment including electric eel drain machines, hydro jet jetting, and CCTV pipe cameras to clear blockages thoroughly and identify any underlying issues that would cause the problem to recur.

  • Blocked toilets — same-day urgent service
  • Blocked shower and sink drains
  • Blocked sewer mains — hydro jet clearing
  • Blocked stormwater drains
  • CCTV drain inspections

Common Causes of Blocked Drains in Research

Blocked drains in Research are often caused by tree root infiltration in the sewer lines, particularly in older clay pipe systems common throughout the north-east. Hair and soap scum build-up causes most shower and basin blockages, while grease and fat accumulation is the primary cause of kitchen sink blockages.

In Research, tree root problems are especially common given the suburb’s established tree coverage. Goats Plumbing uses hydro jet equipment to clear roots and CCTV cameras to inspect whether pipe relining is needed to prevent recurrence.

Our Drain Clearing Equipment

Goats Plumbing attends blocked drain calls in Research with the right tools to clear the blockage properly the first time:

  • Hydro jet jetting — high-pressure water that clears roots, grease, and debris and leaves pipe walls clean
  • Electric eel — flexible rotating cable for clearing blockages in smaller pipes
  • CCTV camera — inspects the pipe after clearing to confirm it is fully clear and check for structural damage

When a Blockage Indicates a Bigger Problem

A drain that blocks repeatedly in the same location in Research usually has an underlying structural cause. Goats Plumbing uses CCTV cameras to inspect drain pipes after clearing and identify issues such as tree root infiltration, cracked pipe sections, or offset joints that are catching debris.

Where structural damage is found, we can advise on pipe relining as a solution that repairs the pipe without excavation. See our pipe relining page for more detail.
