Blocked Drains in East Melbourne

What's usually behind it in East Melbourne

Many East Melbourne homes still have the original terracotta sewer pipes. Their joints open up over time and tree roots find their way in.

Slow drains rarely fix themselves. We find the cause with a drain camera, clear it with a high-pressure jetter, and show you the footage so you know whether it's a one-off or a pipe that needs repair.

East Melbourne's Victorian terraces and mansions are heritage-protected, so we work carefully around original fittings and finishes.

FAQ

Blocked Drains in East Melbourne: common questions

Will you need to dig up my yard?

Usually not. Most blockages are cleared with a jetter through an existing access point. We only recommend digging if the camera shows a collapsed pipe.

Why does my drain keep blocking?

Recurring blockages in East Melbourne are usually tree roots or a dipped section of pipe. A camera inspection tells us which.

Can I see the camera footage?

Yes. We show you on screen and can send you the recording.

Who pays if the blockage is in the street?

If the blockage is in the water authority's sewer main, they are responsible. We can confirm where it is and help you report it.
