      Beth Bull
      Darlinghurst Blocked Drains was the BEST and AMAZING. I called today after 9am to install the ceiling fan and check the switch board, 2hrs later Chris and Luca arrived. They advised what they can do. As soon as I agreed to the price they started the work. They were both professional, efficient, friendly and did a fantastic job. They tested everything to make sure everything is working fine and they took all the rubbish, no mess at all. I will 100% recommend them to everyone I know.
      Chris Ace
      We recently had the pleasure of having an amazing team come to our home to install four ceiling fans and downlights in our bedrooms, and we couldn't be more impressed with their work. David and his colleague (unfortunately, we didn’t catch his name) were both incredibly professional, friendly, and efficient. They arrived on time, worked quickly, and paid close attention to every detail, ensuring everything was installed perfectly.
      Alan Evans
      Very happy with the customer service and quality of their work. They turned up on time and fully quoted in advance. It was a pleasure to do business with Chris & Luka.
      James Dewar
      Clean, friendly and respectable. Great with pets and reliably on time. They obviously take pride in there work and I appreciate the honesty and work they have performed. 1 new ceiling fan + 3 replaced and a fan light in the bathroom replaced. Replaced the circuit board on the house and brought it into the modern era with safety switches I thought we had but didn't. I will definitely use these guys again and recommend highly to any one looking for a good sparky!
      Mel Elliott
      Darlinghurst Blocked Drains have just finished up after a meter-box replacement and some rewiring to replace some old-style cloth wrapped cabling. They've done a great job, were really friendly and helpful, and left everything clean and tidy. They didn't even mind our dogs "helping".
      Syed Zaidi
      David & Chris were extremely professional and quick, given they came down immediately on a 40 degree day to sort out our power issues. They not only corrected the issue extremely quickly, but explained their steps and pricing (which was the fairest of 4 local quotes). In addition, they physically showed what the problem is and tested it in front of us. Brilliant service provided by the guys. I would highly recommend.
      Lana TR
      I am happy with the work completed and the total price was very reasonable. I gave them a huge list of jobs that I needed done and they smashed it out in one day. The guys were friendly and respectful, and they left the house clean when they were done. The admin side was very prompt and organised, I'll be using them again.
      Jacqui Damrow
      Timely booking process and good communication. The electrician arrived on time and did a great quality ot work and explained everything well.
      Simon Wilson
      We had a bathroom exhaust fan replaced. Chris was very professional and sourced and replaced the fan within a short period of time at a good price. Will be using these guys again if needed.
      Jonathan Vincent
      The job was completed well and the guys who did it were friendly helpful and skilled. Only problem was that it cost a lot more than expected.
      Will
      On time, great knowledge and expertise and found ways to make the work done as affordable as possible. Also took the time to quickly check out non-related electricals to make sure everything was safe!
      Jae Lee
      Chris and Luka were absolutely fantastic, and we couldn't recommend them enough. They were very professional, efficient and diligent, while showing care to explain things in detail. Thanks again Chris and Luka!
      Gavin Jones
      A+ service from Chris and Luca of the Darlinghurst Blocked Drains team, from coming out to do free quote, to giving us breathing space to explore our options to completing job; nothing but first class professionals. The boys did an amazing job of explaining our options from interest free finance, to explaining throughout the day what was being done. They were on-time, polite and did a solid clean before leaving.
      Trixi Reut

      Answers to Common Questions

      FAQs About Blocked Shower Drains

      Still have questions about our blocked shower drain services in Darlinghurst? Check out these frequently asked questions or give our friendly team a call for expert advice. We’re here to help restore proper drainage to your shower quickly and effectively.

      The most common causes we encounter in Darlinghurst include hair accumulation, soap scum buildup, calcium deposits from hard water, body oils, and foreign objects like bottle caps or small toys. In older Darlinghurst terraces, we also frequently find issues with corroded pipes, tree root intrusions, and improper pipe gradients contributing to shower drain blockages.

      Signs of a serious shower drain blockage include water pooling around your feet during showers, slow drainage that worsens over time, gurgling sounds from the drain, unpleasant odours, and water backing up in other fixtures when you use the shower. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s best to call a professional plumber rather than relying on DIY methods that might worsen the problem.

      While readily available, chemical drain cleaners can damage your pipes, especially in older Darlinghurst properties with heritage plumbing systems. These harsh chemicals can corrode pipes, damage seals, and create bigger problems. They’re also harmful to the environment. We recommend professional cleaning methods like high-pressure jetting or mechanical snaking that effectively clear blockages without causing pipe damage.

      Prevention is always better than cure. Install a quality drain guard to catch hair and debris before they enter the drain. Clean this guard regularly. Periodically flush drains with hot water to dissolve soap residue. Avoid washing construction materials, paint, or thick substances down the drain. For shared accommodations common in Darlinghurst, consider scheduling regular preventative maintenance with our team.

      Absolutely. We understand that drain emergencies don’t keep business hours, which is why we offer 24/7 emergency service throughout Darlinghurst. Our plumbers can typically reach most locations in the area within 30-60 minutes of your call, fully equipped to resolve your blocked shower drain issue regardless of the time of day or night.
