Blocked drains

Blocked Drain Plumber.

A drain that keeps blocking is not bad luck — something in the pipe is causing it. We clear the blockage, then get a camera down there to find out why, so the same call doesn't come back in six weeks.

Blocked Drains

What's included

  • Hydro-jetting for stubborn obstructions in external drains and sewer lines
  • Electric drain machine for blockages inside the building
  • Tree root cutting and removal from the line
  • CCTV camera inspection to find the cause, not just the symptom
  • Pipe locating so we know where the line runs before any digging
  • Camera check after clearing to confirm the pipe is actually clear
  • Written findings for insurance and pre-purchase reports

Call us if you notice

Water backing up elsewhere

The basin bubbles when the washing machine drains, or the toilet rises before it flushes. That usually means the shared waste line is struggling.

Sewer smell

A foul odour from an outdoor gully, floor waste or bathroom points to trapped waste, a blocked vent or a partial obstruction.

Soggy patches outside

Unusually green grass or a damp patch near a sewer line or inspection opening is a leak worth investigating early.

Several fixtures slow at once

One slow sink is a local trap. Several slow drains at the same time is a line problem — stop using chemicals and call us.

How the job runs

  1. 01

    We find out what's happening

    A quick walkthrough of the affected fixtures, then a camera down the line so we're fixing the cause, not the symptom.

  2. 02

    You get a flat-rate quote first

    You hear the scope and the price before we start — no meter running while we decide what to try.

  3. 03

    We clear it properly

    Jetting or an electric machine depending on where the blockage sits and what it's made of.

  4. 04

    We verify and clean up

    A final camera check confirms the pipe is clear, fixtures get tested, and the work area is left as we found it.

Straight answers

Will you have to dig up my yard?

Not usually. We clear and inspect first, and if the pipe is cracked or root-damaged rather than collapsed, relining fixes it without excavation. If a section genuinely needs replacing, we show you the camera footage and explain why before quoting.

Is a bottle of drain cleaner good enough?

Chemical cleaners can damage older pipework, seals and fixtures, and they often sit in the pipe without reaching the blockage — leaving a hazard for whoever opens the line next. They also never tell you why the drain failed.

My drain blocks every few months. Is that normal?

No. Two clears in a short period is the point to stop treating it as a simple blockage. Camera footage lets us recommend a permanent repair instead of another clear.

Are you available after hours?

Yes — we're open 24/7, and a blocked drain left overflowing overnight gets worse fast. Call 0433 280 765 any hour.
