If the roof of your house has become too damp, then it is probably due to blocked downpipes.
A downpipe helps keep the roof of your home dry and clean by draining away excess water. So, if it gets blocked, all the water will keep accumulating, eventually damaging your roof. And, you will need a qualified Sydney plumber to handle the job for you.
Signs Of A Blocked Downpipe
Wet Patches
One of the telltale signs of this issue is the emergence of water patches on the roof and your walls.
Mould Or Fungi
You may notice moulds and fungi growing in these patches, posing a health risk. There might also be excessive splashback from the downpipe at the ground level.
Debris Visible In The Pipe
Your downpipe may get blocked if leaves or other debris accumulate inside the pipe. In some cases, blockages may occur due to overgrown tree roots.
Regardless of its cause, call Service First Plumbing and have your downpipes cleared quickly and conveniently in Sydney!
Clearing Your Blocked Downpipes
To locate the blockage, we will thoroughly examine your downpipes. In this case, we may use a drain CCTV camera. However, if the pipe is short, it will be physically inspected with a torch.
Once the blockage has been located, it will be removed using high-pressure jets, chemical solvents, or drain snakes. After your downpipe has been cleared, our Sydney plumber will inspect it again to ensure that nothing else is blocking it. If any pipes are damaged, we will discuss with you the best options for repair.
