Your local plumbing specialist based in Sunbury providing quick and effective solutions for all your blocked drain issues, restoring proper flow in no time.
Whether it’s a minor clog or a major obstruction, our experts have the skills and tools to remove blockages quickly, ensuring smooth drainage. We handle clogs in all types of drains, including sinks, showers, toilets, and outdoor drains.
Tree roots can invade underground pipes and create persistent blockages. Our specialized root-cutting tools safely remove roots from your pipes without damaging the system, helping to prevent reoccurring issues.
For complex blockages, we use high-tech CCTV cameras to inspect your pipes from the inside. This allows us to accurately locate and identify the cause of the blockage, whether it’s debris, roots, or structural damage, ensuring we apply the right solution.
Regular drain cleaning and inspections can prevent blockages from forming in the first place. We offer maintenance services that keep your drains clear and reduce the risk of costly repairs down the line.
The general rule is that your responsibility ends at the point where your pipes connect to the public sewer. This is often referred to as the boundary trap or property connection point. If the blockage is before that point, it’s usually your responsibility, but if it’s after that point, it may fall under the water authorities jurisdiction.

To prevent blocked drains, avoid pouring grease or fat down the drain, use drain covers to catch hair and debris and scheduling periodic professional drain inspections can also help catch potential issues early.
Signs of a serious drain blockage include slow drainage, foul smells, gurgling noises, or water backing up in your sinks, shower, or toilet. If these symptoms persist, it’s important to call a professional plumber to avoid further damage to your plumbing system.
Blocked drains can be caused by various factors, including buildup of grease, hair, food scraps, tree roots invading the pipes, or flushing non-degradable items like wipes and feminine hygiene products. Annual inspections and maintenance can help prevent blockages and keep your plumbing running smoothly.
