Blocked drains, cleared and diagnosed
Slow sinks, gurgling toilets and overflowing gullies fixed properly — with a CCTV camera to find the real cause and high-pressure jetting to clear it.
Clear the blockage, then find out why
A plunger might buy you a day, but a drain that keeps blocking is telling you something. Tree roots, built-up grease and fat, collapsed clay pipes and foreign objects are the usual culprits in Redlands and Brisbane homes — and each one needs a different fix. We clear the blockage first, then put a camera down the line so you know exactly what caused it.
Blocked drains are one of our most common jobs, from root-choked sewer lines in older Capalaba and Wynnum homes to grease-blocked kitchen wastes and storm-flooded stormwater pits. High-pressure water jetting scours the pipe wall clean — far more thorough than a plunger or a hand snake — and a CCTV inspection confirms the pipe is clear and sound before we leave.
How we clear and inspect drains
The right tool for the pipe — no guesswork, no digging up the yard unless the camera proves it's needed.
CCTV drain camera
A waterproof camera locates the blockage and shows exactly what's causing it — roots, grease, a crack or a collapse — before we quote a fix.
High-pressure jetting
A water jetter cuts through roots, grease and scale and flushes the debris away, leaving the full bore of the pipe clear.
Root cutting & removal
Invasive tree roots cut back and cleared from sewer and stormwater lines — the number-one cause of recurring blockages in older suburbs.
Sewer & stormwater drains
Blocked sewer mains, stormwater pits, downpipes and external gully traps all cleared and checked.
Pipe locating
We trace and mark the exact depth and route of your drains so any repair is targeted, not a dig-and-hope.
Repairs & relining
Where the camera finds a cracked or collapsed pipe, we advise on repair or trenchless relining so the blockage doesn't come back.
Our blocked-drain process
- 1
Clear the blockage
We get the drain flowing again first — usually with high-pressure jetting — so your kitchen, bathroom or laundry is back in use.
- 2
Camera the line
A CCTV inspection shows the inside of the pipe, so we can see whether it was a one-off or a deeper problem like roots or a collapse.
- 3
Show you the cause
You see the footage and get a plain-English explanation of what caused the blockage and whether the pipe needs attention.
- 4
Fix it for good
If the pipe is damaged, we quote a lasting repair — root barrier, spot repair or relining — so you're not calling us back every few months.
