Fairfield filled in after the Second World War, so most of its houses still drain through 1950s pipe, and almost half of its homes are now flats and apartments sharing drains. Prospect Creek runs through the suburb, and on the low ground near it, how well your own drainage copes in heavy rain matters.

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

Homes from the post-war boom mostly still drain through the pipe they were built with. At that age, roots get into the joints and the clay ground shifts the pipe as it wets and dries. If a sewer has blocked more than once, a camera look is worth doing before it's simply cleared again.

With so many flats and apartments, one blocked line often affects several homes. When a blockage in one unit shows up in another, a camera locates it, which also settles whether it's in common property.

When the creek is running high, water from roofs and streets has less room to get away. Silted pits, blocked grates and broken yard lines make that worse, so clear them in the dry months rather than finding out during a storm.

How It Works

01

Plunger or drain auger for a blockage near the fixture, the jet blaster for the main line.

02

For repeat blockages, a CCTV camera shows what is in the pipe and exactly where.

03

If the pipe is damaged, we explain relining or replacement, with a fixed price first.

04

We make sure the drain is flowing freely before we leave.

Common Questions

Usually because something in the pipe keeps catching waste: roots through a joint, a crack or a sag. A camera inspection shows what it is and whether it needs a repair.

It's the grated fitting outside, usually near the bathroom or kitchen, that lets a blocked sewer spill into the yard instead of inside. On older homes it's sometimes buried under paving or a garden bed; it should be visible and sit just above the ground around it.

Let your strata manager know, since shared drains are usually common property. We clear the line and can give the owners corporation a camera report showing where the problem was.
