Signs you need blocked drains help
Slow-draining sinks or showers
Water pooling or draining slowly is an early warning of a building blockage.
Gurgling toilets or drains
Air trapped by a partial blockage makes gurgling sounds.
Bad smells from drains
Trapped waste and grease give off odours before a full blockage.
Repeat blockages
Recurring blockages in an older home often mean tree roots in cracked clay pipes.

Built for Inner West homes
Tree roots in ageing clay and earthenware pipes are the number-one cause of blocked sewers across the Inner West’s leafy, older streets. Clearing alone is a short-term fix — we can camera the line and reline it so the roots can’t get back in.

Blocked Drains questions
How do you clear a blocked drain?
We diagnose with CCTV, then clear with high-pressure jet blasting or an electric drain machine, and confirm the line is clear with a second camera pass.
Can you stop drains blocking again?
Yes — if the cause is cracked pipes or tree roots, pipe relining creates a smooth, joint-free liner so roots and debris can’t re-enter.
Do you offer emergency drain clearing?
Yes, 24/7 across the Inner West for overflowing toilets and blocked sewers.
Will you show me the camera footage?
Absolutely — we’ll show you exactly what’s in the pipe and explain your options.
