Why Drains Block in Bankstown
Bankstown is post-war brick on generous blocks and most of it drains through original clay sewer. Seventy years is a long time for earthenware with mature trees above it, and the majority of blocked drains here trace back to exactly that.

Clay sewer past its service life
Original earthenware under a seventy-year-old brick home will have cracked joints and root intrusion. Clearing buys time; relining the affected section ends it.
Root intrusion from established trees
Large gardens and mature street trees over old pipe. Blockages that return on a cycle are roots almost every time.
Grease and food waste in narrow old pipe
Decades of build-up narrows a line that was not generous to begin with, so material that would flow through new pipe catches here.
How It Works
How It Works in Bankstown
Inspection
We run a CCTV camera through your drain to pinpoint the blockage.
Diagnose
We identify the cause — roots, grease, debris, or collapsed pipe — and quote the fix.
Clear
We use high-pressure jetting or a drain snake to fully clear the blockage.
Verify
We re-inspect after clearing to confirm the drain is flowing freely.
Common Questions
Blocked Drains in Bankstown
Is relining worth it on an older home?
If the pipe is structurally sound but has cracked joints and roots, yes — usually cheaper than excavating and it stops the blockages returning.
How long does clearing a drain take?
Most standard blockages are cleared within one to two hours. Root intrusion or a collapsed section takes longer, and we will tell you which before starting.
Do you charge extra on weekends?
No. Same pricing, no call-out fee, seven days.
