At a busy childcare facility like KingKids Early Learning Centre on Stud Rd, Rowville, VIC 3178, maintenance needs to be fast and preventative. When a basin in the children’s toilet block became completely blocked, our plumber quickly diagnosed the root cause: playful activity near the sandpit. The job involved not only clearing the drain but installing permanent protection to ensure the issue wouldn’t recur.

The Problem: Sand and Toys in the Drain

The call was placed after one of three basins in the kids’ toilet block ceased to drain. Given the proximity of the children’s sandpit, our plumber figured the 40mm UPVC drain pipe and the connecting P-trap were likely clogged with sand, small plastics, and straws.

The plumber quickly disconnected the P-trap and used an external garden tap to flush it out, confirming the diagnosis. After thoroughly cleaning out the foreign debris, the rubber seals and threads on the trap were cleaned and the unit was reassembled and reinstalled.

The Solution: High-Pressure Clearing and Permanent Protection

To guarantee a clean pipe, the plumber used a suction plunger to blast any remaining debris down the drain. Crucially, the solution didn’t stop there: we recommended a permanent preventative measure.

The plumber visited Reece Plumbing Rowville, 65 Henderson Road, Rowville VIC 3178 and picked up specific Posh Base Stoppers. These drain strainers were installed on all three kids’ sinks to protect the drains from everyday objects—a small but critical investment for a high-traffic commercial drain system.
