Who I Am

A blocked drain is more than just an inconvenience — it can quickly become a serious plumbing issue if left unresolved. From slow-moving sinks and overflowing toilets to wastewater backing up through your drains, drainage problems can disrupt your home and create unwanted damage.

At Pods Plumbing & Gas, we provide professional blocked drains Chermside solutions for residential properties throughout North Brisbane. Using reliable equipment and proven techniques, we locate the source of the blockage and clear your drains properly to help prevent recurring issues.

Whether you are dealing with a blocked kitchen sink, overflowing toilet, clogged shower drain or underground pipe blockage, our experienced plumbers are ready to provide efficient and dependable service.

Blocked Drain Services

  • Blocked Toilet

    The most urgent call we get. If your toilet won't flush or is overflowing, we'll clear it fast and check the drain line to make sure there's no deeper issue.

  • Blocked Sink & Basin

    Kitchen sink backing up? Bathroom basin draining slowly? Usually caused by grease, soap, or hair buildup. We clear the blockage and clean the trap.

  • Blocked Shower Drain

    Standing in ankle-deep water? Hair and soap scum are the usual culprits. We clear the drain and can install a hair trap to prevent future blockages.

  • Blocked Floor Drain

    Floor drains in laundries and bathrooms can back up with sewage if the main line is blocked. We clear the blockage and check the sewer line.

  • Stormwater Drains

    Water pooling in the yard after rain? Could be a blocked or damaged stormwater drain. We clear blockages and can inspect the line for damage.

  • CCTV Drain Inspection

    For stubborn or recurring blockages, we use a drain camera to see exactly what's happening inside your pipes — tree roots, cracks, collapsed sections, or buildup.

Common Causes of Blocked Drains

  • Tree roots – Tree roots can grow into underground pipes, restricting water flow and causing repeated blockages.

  • Grease and food waste – Kitchen waste and oils can build up inside pipes and create stubborn blockages.

  • Hair and soap scum – Bathroom drains commonly become blocked due to hair, soap and product residue.

  • Foreign objects – Items accidentally flushed or washed down drains can cause serious plumbing issues.

  • Broken or collapsed pipes – Damaged drainage pipes may prevent wastewater from flowing correctly.

  • Poor pipe design – Incorrect installation or ageing plumbing systems can contribute to ongoing drainage problems.
