I think there is something inside the drains at the front of my house. I’m not sure what it is but whatever it is has made my drains become blocked and I think it’s impacting the rest of my sewerage system too. I need to get a drain plumber out here as soon as possible to rectify the issue.
I have contacted the plumber and asked him to complete drain camera inspections. In the Melbourne area, it’s not uncommon for random things to go down the drain and so I’m sure that the plumber will find something during his camera inspection. I just hope that whatever it is can be dislodged quickly and easily, because I don’t want any more sewerage problems going forward.
The drain plumber came this morning to inspect my drains. As I suspected, there was something lodged deep in the drain that was causing drainage problems. It didn’t take a genius to figure it out but I’m glad to have had the drain plumber confirm my suspicions.
Just as I had hoped, he was able to rectify the problem quickly and easily (to his standard, it certainly wouldn’t have been easy for me. In fact, it would have been impossible). I was glad to have avoided a full scale sewer replacement. Melbourne drains are slowly being replaced one by one but I’m hoping mine don’t need to be replaced until after I moved. I hope to move to a suburb that has already had its drains replaced so that I don’t have to deal with all the issues that come with it.
I can rest easy tonight knowing that my drains are unblocked and I don’t need a sewer replacement. As someone who likes to keep things in order, that is very comforting and I am happy about it. I hope to have no more issues with my drains while I live in this property.
