Blocked Drains / Coogee

Blocked Drains Coogee

Same-day drain clearing across Coogee — camera inspection, high-pressure jetting, and a fixed price before we start.

Most blocked drain calls in Coogee come from apartment blocks, and most of those turn out to be the shared stack rather than anything inside the apartment that reported it. Add sand working its way into stormwater from the beach and you have the two causes that account for the majority of the suburb's drainage work.

The same job on camera: roots through a joint at 12.59 m. We locate the fault before we quote the fix.

Coogee is dense and largely apartment-based. A blockage in a common stack affects every unit above it, which is why several apartments often report the same problem at once.

Proximity to the beach means sand ends up in drainage. It accumulates rather than blocking suddenly, reducing capacity until heavy rain overwhelms what is left.

Older blocks were plumbed to a smaller standard than modern ones. Ordinary kitchen and bathroom use builds up faster in a narrower pipe.

Typical Cost

From $150–$400 for simple to complex blockages

How It Works

01

We run a CCTV camera through your drain to pinpoint the blockage.

02

We identify the cause — roots, grease, debris, or collapsed pipe — and quote the fix.

03

We use high-pressure jetting or a drain snake to fully clear the blockage.

04

We re-inspect after clearing to confirm the drain is flowing freely.

Common Questions

It depends where the blockage sits. Inside your apartment it is yours; in the common stack it is strata. We locate it precisely so nobody is guessing.

Yes. Access is usually from the stack rather than from inside the apartment, which is often less disruptive than people expect.

No. No call-out fee and no after-hours surcharge, any day of the week.
