Why Drains Block in Guildford
Guildford is one of the suburbs we work in most. Much of its housing went up between the wars and in the years after the Second World War, so the sewer under a typical house has been in the ground for seventy to a hundred years, and plenty of blocks now have a granny flat draining into that same old line.
Old joints and tree roots
After that long in the ground, joints open and roots work their way in. A drain that blocks again a few months after it was cleared is telling you the pipe needs looking at, and a camera shows exactly where and why.
A granny flat on the house's old line
A granny flat at the back of the block usually drains into the house's existing sewer. If that line is cracked, root-affected or laid with poor fall, the extra kitchen, bathroom and laundry show up the weakness quickly.
Silted yard pits and grates
With Duck Creek's upper reaches running in channels and pipes, heavy storms push water across the ground. Pits, grates and stormwater lines that are silted up can't clear it, so water pools against the house.

Common Questions
Blocked Drains in Guildford
Why does my drain keep blocking?
Usually because something in the pipe is catching waste: roots through a joint, a crack, or a sag. Clearing gets it flowing; a camera inspection shows whether it needs a repair so it stops coming back.
Should the old line be checked before a granny flat connects to it?
Yes. A camera inspection of the existing line before the new work connects to it costs far less than finding the problem after the slab is poured.
Is a blocked sewer my problem or Sydney Water's?
As a general rule you look after the pipes from the house to where they join Sydney Water's main. If only your property is affected, the blockage is most likely in your line; if neighbours are affected too, it may be in the main.
