Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How do I know if my drain is blocked?

A. The signs are hard to miss: sinks or the shower drain slowly, the toilet gurgles or fills higher than normal, and you may smell sewage outside. If more than one fixture backs up at once, the blockage is usually in the main drain, that's when to call us.

Q. How do you clear a blocked drain?

A. We start by clearing with water jetting or drain rods, then use a CCTV camera inspection to find what caused the blockage, often tree roots, collapsed pipe or fat buildup. Clearing the symptom is quick; finding the cause stops it coming back.

Q. Whose responsibility is a blocked drain?

A. Drains on your property up to the point of connection to the council main are the homeowner's responsibility. Blockages or faults beyond that point belong to the council. A CCTV inspection shows exactly where the issue sits before you pay for repairs.
