Blocked Drains in Hawthorn? Grease is a Common Cause

When grease, oils, and fats are poured down the sink, they can solidify in the pipes, creating stubborn blockages that are difficult to remove.

Many people don’t realise the impact of grease on their plumbing system until it’s too late. Over time, even small amounts of grease can accumulate, leading to slow-draining sinks, foul odours, and eventually, complete blockages.

To prevent grease-related drain issues, it’s essential to dispose of grease and oils properly. Instead of pouring them down the sink, collect them in a container and dispose of them in the trash once they’ve cooled and solidified. By adopting this simple habit, you can help keep your Hawthorn drains flowing smoothly and avoid costly repairs. For plumbing recommendations, Don't hesitate to contact Fast Direct Plumbing!

We had an emergency roof leak after hours and were so grateful for how quickly we received a response and call out. John arrived within 30 mins, was very professional and calm, promptly identified the cause of the leak and then got things under control right away. He even took the time to explain the more technical jargon in plain English so we fully understood what was happening. It was such a relief during a stressful situation. Thank you so much John (and team)!
Response from the owner:Hannah, thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're glad to hear that John provided such prompt and professional service during your emergency. It's great that he was able to explain everything clearly for you. We appreciate your kind words and support! - Fast Direct Plumbing Team!

frequently asked questions

Fast Direct Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing services, ensuring your issues are resolved promptly and professionally—no matter the time of day. Enjoy peace of mind with their fast response and transparent pricing.

How often should I have my plumbing inspected?

It's a good idea to have your plumbing inspected by a professional at least once a year. Regular inspections can help identify potential problems early, such as leaks, corrosion, and blockages, which can prevent costly repairs in the future.


How can I avoid clogged drains?

To avoid clogged drains, be mindful of what you put down them. Avoid pouring grease, oil, and coffee grounds down the kitchen sink. Regularly clean the screens and consider using a natural drain cleaner, such as a mixture of baking soda and vinegar, to maintain clear pipes.


When should I call an emergency plumber?

It's best to call our emergency plumbers if you face urgent issues like burst pipes, sewage backups, flooding, no water supply, or overflowing toilets. These situations can cause major damage or pose health risks. Acting quickly helps prevent further damage and costly repairs. Our team will answer your call and arrive the same day.
