What are the early signs of a blocked drain?

Offensive smells or gurgling sounds from your toilet when flushing. The toilet can be slow to drain or You may notice the water level in the bowl changing.

What are likely causes of blocked drains?

Often the result of tree roots searching for moisture. Initially tree roots can invade through tiny cracks in the pipe but as the tree roots grow within the pipe they begin to catch any foreign objects within the drain system. This begins as a partial blockage within the drain but eventually leads to a complete blockage over time. Other causes of a blocked drain include grease and fat build up from kitchen sinks, hair deposits from shower, bath or basins and foreign objects being flushed down toilets.

When are some circumstances where a drain cannot be cleared?

The drain may be severely invaded by tree roots leading to a complete blockage. The drain may be cracked by movement of the ground around the drain or the drain may have collapsed under the weight of heavy machinery or vehicles. This can mean a small section of the drain needs to be repaired or if damage is severe the drain may need to be replaced.

Client Testimonials

Thankyou for your prompt response to our plumbing emergency. We were impressed with the superior plumbing service we received and the fair price too. I will be recommending Doherty Plumbing Solutions to my friends and family. Well done and keep up the great work!

- Margaret of Ashburton

A friend recommended Doherty Plumbing Solutions who said you were reliable and affordable. We had a burst pipe in our wall on Saturday night resulting in a plumbing emergency. Can I please use this opportunity to let you know that the plumber (Brian) who helped us was exceptional. He got the job done so quickly and efficiently and kept me informed along the way. Thanks again, you have yet another very satisfied client who will be using your services again in the future.

- Rose of Bentleigh

Your admin staff were able to schedule our appointment as required, and they asked questions to determine our needs before the plumber arrived on site. The plumber arrived at the scheduled appointment time, and also called before hand to let us know exactly what time he would be arriving. He came with the right part in hand and completed the job in no time and without fuss. As usual the site was left clean and tidy. Thanks again.

- Bridget of Glen Waverley

We have used Doherty Plumbing Solutions twice in the last few months, and on both occasions we have found staff to be friendly, polite and professional. The plumber arrived on time, called before hand, quotation was reasonable, costs were expected, work area was left clean and tidy. Your magnet is on the fridge door and we'd definitely use you again although we hope not to have to!

- Michael & Trish of Mt Dandenong

Brilliant service. From the very first phone call to the plumbers knowledge and work ethic on site I was impressed with your professionalism. Your dedication to providing quality service is refreshing and will ensure that the next time I need a plumber, I will be calling Doherty Plumbing Solutions.

- Kathryn of Brighton

We recently had Doherty Plumbing Solutions install new gas appliances into our kitchen. The well organised booking system, level of service and the workmanship provided were all outstanding. I'll definitely continue to deal with your company for all our future renovations.

- Tim of Murrembeena

This is the second time I've used Doherty Plumbing Solutions following an impressive first experience. Our hot water unit stopped working on Saturday night so I had to test out their after hours service. The plumber was once again well organised and diligent so we had our new HWU installed by early Sunday afternoon. A truly reliable, dedicated team of plumbers at Doherty Plumbing Solutions with a genuine desire to please their clients.

- Christopher of Hampton

This is the 3rd time your company has resolved a plumbing issue for us. On each occasion I've been impressed by the courtesy, timeliness and high standards of workmanship of your employees. I will definitely continue using Doherty Plumbing Solutions for any future plumbing jobs. You have confirmed my belief that quality service does not have to come at a higher price!
