Blocked Drains in Your Mitcham Home? Grease and Fat Buildup

Common sources of grease and fat include cooking oils, like vegetable, olive and peanut oil, as well as butter, shortening and released fats from cooking meat. When hot grease and fat are poured down the drain, they solidify and adhere to the walls of the pipes, narrowing the passage for water and waste.

Over time, this buildup can lead to severe blockages that are difficult to remove without professional intervention. Fast Direct Plumbing can help you with a quick fix!

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.
