The Blocked Sewers We Clear
Sewage blockage removal on the main line from your house to the street, jet blasted clear first and checked on camera after.
Blocked Sewer Line
Every drain in the house slow at once, or water rising in the lowest shower: the main line to the street is blocked and needs clearing now.
Sewage Backing Up Inside
Waste coming up the shower or floor waste. We clear the line from the nearest access and get the overflow stopped first.
Overflowing Gully Or Yard Pit
Water spilling from the gully or a pit at the side of the house is the sewer telling you it is blocked. We jet it clear from the pit.
Tree Roots In The Sewer
Roots in an old clay line block it every few months. We cut them out and show you the entry point on camera.
Boundary Traps And Inspection Shafts
A blocked boundary trap or a buried inspection shaft. We find the access, open it and clear the line through it.
How Bad Is Your Blocked Sewer?
Three signs of a blocked sewer, most to least urgent, and what to do.
Sewage Overflowing Outside Or Inside
Waste spilling from the gully, or rising in the lowest shower or floor waste, means the main line is blocked now. Stop running water and call: we clear it, then find the cause on camera.
Every Drain Slow, Toilet Gurgling
More than one fixture playing up at once points at the sewer, not a single drain. Not overflowing yet, but the next load of washing can push it over. Book today.
One Toilet Slow, Nothing Else Affected
One slow toilet or basin is usually a local blockage, not the sewer. A plunger is worth one try; skip drain chemicals, which rarely shift it and eat older pipes. Still slow? Book a fixed-price clear.

Blocked Sewer FAQs
Answer:
It depends on how deep the blockage is and how far along the line it sits. You get one fixed price after the plumber has looked, before any work starts, and there is nothing to pay just for us to come and look during business hours. A 0% interest payment plan is available if the camera finds a pipe that needs repair.
Answer:
A blocked sewer affects the whole house: more than one drain slow at once, the toilet gurgling when the shower runs, waste rising in the lowest floor waste, water spilling from the gully outside, a sewage smell in the yard, or a wet patch on the lawn. One slow basin on its own is usually a local blockage. Our guide on how to unblock a drain explains when to stop and call.
Answer:
Under Sydney Water's published policy the property owner is responsible for the private sewer from the house all the way to the point of connection with the Sydney Water main, including that connection and any tree roots growing into it, even where it runs under the footpath. Sydney Water owns the main and the junction on it, and takes over a repair only if the junction itself has failed or the connection is deeper than 2.5 metres. If the camera shows the fault is in the main or the junction we tell you and Sydney Water is notified, so you are not paying for work that is not yours. Our guide you or Sydney Water: who is responsible sets out the full boundary.
Answer:
Tree roots growing into the joints of old clay lines, wet wipes and other things that should never have been flushed, fat and grease setting hard, and pipes that have cracked, sagged or collapsed with age or ground movement. The camera check after the clear shows you which one it was.
Answer:
Not on a line that is already blocked. Chemicals sit on top of the blockage, and on older pipes they eat the joints and turn a clearing job into a repair. Roots have to be cut out with the jet blaster, and the entry point found on camera, or they grow straight back.
Answer:
We run a CCTV camera through the line after the jet blaster, free with any booked drain service. You see the pipe on the screen: the cause of the blockage, the condition of the pipe and clear water flowing to the boundary. If there is damage, it is on the footage and you get a fixed price to fix it.
Answer:
It is when sewage is overflowing outside, backing up inside, or more than one fixture is overflowing at once. Raw sewage is a health risk, so stop running water and call. We run emergency sewer unblocking 24/7 across Sydney. After-hours and weekend call-outs may attract a fee at our discretion, and we always confirm that with you before we attend.
Answer:
Often, yes. Clearing is done through the existing inspection openings, and a cracked or root-damaged section can usually be relined from inside the pipe without excavation. Digging is kept for a collapsed section the camera shows cannot be relined, and you know which blocked sewer repair you need before anyone picks up a shovel.
Answer:
Keep wet wipes, sanitary products and nappies out of the toilet even when the packet says flushable, never pour cooking oil or grease down the sink, and if you have big trees near the sewer line, have it checked on camera before the roots block it again.
