“From Leaks to Blockages – We’ve Got You Covered!” – Shellharbour Plumbing
Home || Blocked Sink Drains
A blocked sink drain can disrupt your daily routine and quickly turn into a messy, inconvenient problem. At Shellharbour Plumbing, we specialise in fast, effective, and long-lasting solutions to restore proper drainage in kitchens, bathrooms, and laundries across Shellharbour, Wollongong and surrounding suburbs.
Using advanced diagnostic tools and proven techniques, our licensed plumbers quickly identify the cause of the blockage—whether it’s grease build-up, food scraps, hair, or foreign objects—and clear it without causing damage to your pipes. We’re committed to delivering quality workmanship and friendly service every time.
Common causes include grease and fat build-up, soap scum, food scraps, hair, foreign objects, and mineral deposits. Over time these accumulate and restrict water flow.
Slow draining water, gurgling sounds, foul odours, and water backing up into the sink are all signs of a blockage.
Minor blockages can sometimes be cleared with boiling water, a plunger, or a mild drain cleaner. However, persistent or recurring blockages are best handled by a professional to avoid pipe damage.
We offer prompt service and can often attend same day for urgent blocked sink issues in Shellharbour, Wollongong and nearby areas.
No—our team uses safe, professional equipment designed to clear blockages without harming your plumbing system.

Excellent professional service He removed our old hot water system and replaced it with a new system, leaving the area spotless. He also gave us valuable advice on this product and options to suit our family. I have also completed an extension to our kitchen and laundry. Matt's work is neat and tidy, not rushed.
