Best Unclog Shower Drain Plumbers in Sydney
If you have ever stood in a shower with the water pooling around your ankles, you know how frustrating it can be to deal with a blocked shower drain. Not only does it create an uncomfortable shower experience, but it can also lead to potential water damage and even mould growth if not addressed promptly.
We offer a specialised service to help with blocked shower drains. As a licensed and experienced plumbing company, we are trained to solve any blockage issue quickly and efficiently, leaving you with a shower that drains correctly.
WHAT ARE THE REASONS BEHIND A CLOGGED SHOWER DRAIN?
Hair: Hair strands are one of the primary culprits for shower drain blockages as they can accumulate and form clogs over time.
Soap Scum: The residue left behind by soap, combined with minerals in the water, can build up and create a blockage in the drain.
Skin Cells and Body Oils: Dead skin cells and body oils can accumulate over time, especially if not properly rinsed off, contributing to drain blockages.
Foreign Objects: Accidentally dropping small objects like jewelry, bottle caps, or toys into the shower drain can cause blockages.
Mineral Deposits: Minerals present in hard water can accumulate and create deposits in the drain, reducing its capacity and causing clogs.
Dirt and Debris: Small particles of dirt, sand, and other debris can find their way into the drain, leading to blockages.
Incorrect Pipe Slope: Improper installation or a poorly sloped drain pipe can impede the flow of water and result in blockages.
Tree Roots: In some cases, tree roots may invade underground drainage systems, including shower drains, causing blockages.
Plumbing Issues: Problems with the main sewer line or plumbing system, such as pipe corrosion or collapsed pipes, can lead to shower drain blockages.
Inadequate Drain Cover: If the drain cover or strainer is damaged or not properly fitted, it can allow debris to enter the drain and cause blockages.
WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF A BLOCKED SHOWER DRAIN?
- Slow Drainage: Water drains slowly or takes a longer time than usual to empty from the shower. It may pool around your feet.
- Standing Water: Water accumulates and remains in the shower basin, causing it to fill up instead of draining properly.
- Foul Odors: A persistent unpleasant smell emanating from the shower drain can indicate a blockage and the presence of stagnant water.
- Gurgling Noises: You may hear gurgling or bubbling sounds coming from the drain while water is draining, suggesting an obstruction.
- Water Backing Up: If water from the shower backs up or starts to rise in other nearby fixtures, such as sinks or toilets, it suggests a blockage in the main sewer line.
- Overflowing Shower: When you use the shower, water overflows onto the bathroom floor instead of flowing down the drain as it should.
- Water Pooling in Other Drains: Water from the shower may back up or pool in other drains within your home, such as sinks or tubs.
- Visible Debris or Hair: If you notice an accumulation of hair, soap scum, or other debris around the drain cover or inside the drain, it indicates a potential blockage.
- Fluctuating Water Levels: The water level in the toilet bowl may rise or fall when you use the shower, indicating a problem with the drainage system.
- Previous Blockages: If you have experienced frequent or recurring shower drain blockages in the past, it’s a sign that there may be an underlying issue that needs to be addressed.
It’s important to address a blocked shower drain promptly to prevent further damage or potential plumbing issues.

FAQ's
The best way to prevent a blocked shower drain is to remove hair from the plughole after every shower and regularly clean the shower drain with natural or commercial drain cleaners. You can also use a drain protector or strainer to catch hair and debris before they enter the pipes.
Some signs of a blocked shower drain are slow draining water, standing water in the shower, foul odours, gurgling noises and water backing up in other drains.
Depending on the cause and severity of the blockage, you may be able to unblock your shower drain by using a plunger, a drain snake, a wire coat hanger or a combination of boiling water, baking soda, salt and vinegar. These methods can help to dislodge and remove the clog from the pipes.
You should call a plumber to unblock your shower drain if none of the DIY methods work, if the blockage is too deep or too hard to reach, if you suspect a broken pipe or a bad pipe installation, or if you have recurring or multiple blockages in your plumbing system.
The benefits of unblocking a shower drain by a plumber are that they can diagnose and fix the problem quickly and effectively, they have the right tools and skills to handle any situation, they can prevent further damage and health risks, they can offer professional advice and tips on how to maintain your drains, and they can guarantee their workmanship and quality.
