Blocked Drains
We clear it, and find out why it blocked.
Overview
Blocked Drains you can rely on
A slow sink is annoying; a backed-up sewer is a disaster. We clear blocked drains across Penrith and Western Sydney with high-pressure water jetting and CCTV cameras, so we fix the cause instead of just poking at the symptom.
The problem
Gurgling drains, bad smells and water that won't go down usually mean roots, grease or a collapsed pipe somewhere downstream. Older fibro and clay-pipe homes are especially prone to it.
Our Process
How we fix it
A methodical, no-surprises approach from first call to final clean-up.
- 1
We inspect the drain with a CCTV camera to find the exact blockage.
- 2
High-pressure jetting cuts through roots, grease and debris.
- 3
We re-inspect to confirm the line is clear.
- 4
We show you the footage and explain what caused it.
- 5
If the pipe is damaged, we quote a permanent repair, no surprises.
What Goes Wrong
Common causes
The usual culprits we diagnose, and put right for good.
- Tree roots growing into old clay pipes
- Fat, oil and grease build-up in kitchen lines
- Wet wipes and foreign objects
- Collapsed or misaligned pipes in older homes
- Stormwater debris after heavy rain
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most.
Yes, a CCTV drain inspection is standard for anything beyond a simple surface blockage. The camera tells us exactly what's causing the problem (roots, grease, a collapsed section) and exactly where, so we're not guessing. We show you the footage so you can see it for yourself.
