Common causes of bath and shower blockages
Blockage is a common issue in any sort of plumbing system. If not handled professionally, it can lead to an unhygienic environment and emotional discomfort. Here are some common causes of blocked shower drains:
Hair buildup
Hair is the primary cause of blockage. After hair washing and bathing, the strands accumulate in the drain. They form a clog over time that blocks proper water drain. In addition, this leads to standing water in the shower area.
Soap and Mineral Buildup
Melbourne has hard water that leads to mineral and soap buildup in the drain pipes. Soap and other cleaning products in the shower leave a residue that sticks to the pipe walls. Over time, this buildup reduces the diameter of the drain pipe, restricting the flow of water.
Foreign Items
Foreign objects like jewellery, small bathing toys or toiletries can occasionally go down the drain and create blockage. These objects can lead to significant blockage issues.
Misaligned Pipes
Although rare, sometimes homes have pipe misalignment, causing water flow obstruction and debris to build up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before calling the experts, you can try DIY ideas to unclog the drain if it is a minor blockage. Here are some solutions:
- Try a plunger – Keep the plunger firmly on the drain and create a seal before pulling and pushing the plunger. Mostly, it will clear minor blockages.
- Baking Soda and Vinegar – Pour a baking soda and vinegar mixture down the drain. Keep it for some time, then flush the drain with hot water. The mixture helps to melt away the blockage.
We charge on an hourly basis, and most services have fixed prices. Furthermore, our Eastern Suburbs Melbourne plumbing for blocked showers believes in transparent and fair prices. Before we start any job, you will know how much the clogged drain job will cost you. You can sit and relax, ensuring there will be no hidden charges.
Hair is the most common reason for clogged drains. If not removed, they get collected in the drain, creating a mesh where other waste gets stuck and becomes a significant blockage. However, there are chemical cleaners that dissolve hair and clear it out. Removing the hair by hand and putting it in the bin is the best and most natural way to have a free-flowing shower drain.
While some factors are beyond our control, regular maintenance and promptly addressing minor issues can significantly reduce the risk of future leakages.
The duration depends on the complexity of the leak. We aim to complete repairs efficiently while ensuring the highest quality standards.
