Blocked Drains and Pipes

High pressure water jetting is one of the most effective ways to clear and clean drains. It removes built-up debris, grease and sludge, and can cut through many common causes of blockages. It’s ideal for stubborn or recurring issues because it doesn’t just create a small opening — it helps flush the line thoroughly so it can flow freely again.

If a drain keeps blocking, there’s usually an underlying cause. CCTV drain camera inspections allow us to locate the exact position of the blockage and identify what’s causing it — including tree roots, build-up, damaged joints or collapsed sections. Once we know what’s happening inside the drain, we can recommend the right fix to reduce repeat problems and unnecessary call-outs.

Tree roots are one of the most common causes of blocked drains across South Adelaide. Roots can enter small gaps in older pipe joints and quickly create repeat blockages. We can clear root intrusions to restore flow, then explain the best next step to help prevent the problem returning, including maintenance options and repair recommendations if the pipework is damaged.
