BLOCKED
DRAINS
Fast, effective drain clearing using high-pressure water jetting and CCTV camera inspection. We find the blockage, clear it, and show you exactly what caused it — all on the same day.
IS YOUR DRAIN BLOCKED?
Don't ignore these common signs. A small blockage can quickly become a major problem.
Slow Draining Water
Sinks, showers, or baths taking longer than usual to drain is often the first sign of a blockage building up.
Gurgling Sounds
Strange gurgling noises from your drains or toilet indicate trapped air caused by a blockage in the pipe.
Bad Smells
Foul odours coming from drains usually mean waste is trapped and decomposing in the pipe.
Overflowing Gully Traps
Water overflowing from outdoor gully traps is a clear sign your sewer drain is blocked.
Multiple Blocked Fixtures
If more than one drain is blocked at the same time, the blockage is likely in your main sewer line.
Water Backing Up
Water coming back up through drains or toilets means a serious blockage that needs urgent attention.
HOW WE FIX BLOCKED DRAINS
We don't just clear the blockage — we find out what caused it and give you options to prevent it happening again.
CCTV Camera Inspection
We send our Ridgid CS 65 XR HD camera into the drain to locate the exact blockage point and identify the cause.
High-Pressure Water Jetting
Our Ridgid KJ5000 water jetter blasts through tree roots, grease, debris, and buildup at high pressure to clear the pipe completely.
Verification & Advice
We re-inspect with the camera to confirm the drain is clear, then advise on long-term solutions like drain relining if needed.
Common Causes
Tree Roots
The #1 cause of blocked drains in Melbourne. Roots seek out moisture and can crack and infiltrate pipes.
Grease & Fat
Cooking grease solidifies inside pipes over time, gradually narrowing the pipe until it blocks completely.
Foreign Objects
Wet wipes, sanitary products, and other items that shouldn't be flushed cause stubborn blockages.
Broken or Collapsed Pipes
Old clay or earthenware pipes can crack, collapse, or become misaligned, trapping debris.
KEEP GETTING BLOCKED DRAINS?
If your drains keep blocking, the pipe itself is likely damaged. Our no-dig drain relining permanently fixes the problem with a 70-year warranty — no excavation required.
