PRICING FOR BLOCKAGES
WHY IS MY DRAIN BLOCKED?
Blockages can be caused by many factors dependant on the pipe or fixture. Usually this occurs when there is a restriction of correct water flow in wastewater pipes.
Restrictions may be caused by some of the usual suspects…
TREE ROOTS
The growth and healthy maintenance of roots are naturally attached by moisture. What better place than underground pipes. Tree roots stealth their way into a drain, expanding a maturity that ultimately contributes to an ecosystem of blockage.
GREASE & OIL BUILDUPS
It is very easy for food and wasted grease to enter the drainage system, just think about how often you clean food of plates into a sink. While it may seem innocent, overtime this combination can generate a wall of greasy blockading.
HAIR BUILDUP
This is where hair strands are mixed with chemicals from soaps and other hair cleaning products that then binds together into a strong web that stops water from sifting through.
OBJECT FLUSHING
We all know what is meant to be flushed down a toilet, however that doesn’t mean that people don’t get ideas on flushing things that shouldn’t be flushed. No matter how big or small on object is anything that shouldn’t be flushed going through a toilet system can ultimately clog the drain.
EXTERIOR DEBRIS
Nature isn’t going to consider the stormwater drain on your property so you may as well. Heavy rainfall, leaves, sand, dirt and debris can form an intense flooding or blockage around your entire property.
OLD PIPES
A bit like a car, pipes also need a bit of TLC. Neglecting maintenance can result in unnoticed racks and leaks, prone status to misalignment can also develop into a pipe collapse.
Blocked drains can be an insanely frustrating issue to deal with, costly, disruptive, messy and a general nuisance. Pay attention to some of these reasons and you can save yourself a world of frustration.

Our High-Tech Equipment Arsenal
5000 PSI High-Pressure Drain Jetter
Already loaded on the truck, our reliable hydro-jetter delivers water at up to 5000 PSI through specialised rotating nozzle heads.
This weapon cuts through stubborn tree roots, strips thick wall-bound grease, and flushes sand, silt, and scale entirely out of the line, restoring your pipes to near-original capacity.
An excellent piece of gear that scribes your pipes clean, meaning that not only do we clear the blockage but we give the pipes their reason to exist!
OUR PROCESS:
We have a dedicated team specialising in blocked drains and drainage issues. Generally, if more than one fixture is draining slowly, the blockage is usually too severe for a standard plunge and advanced equipment is required.
Our trained experts use high-pressure drain jetting equipment — a specialised hose with a 5000 PSI jetting head — capable of cutting through tree roots, clearing heavy blockages, and thoroughly cleaning the inside of your pipework for a longer-lasting result.
First we Jet it! The jetter goes down your line and blasts the blockage apart — not just poked through. CLEARED.
Then we cut it. That’s tree roots, grease, heavy build-up — the jetting head cuts straight through and thoroughly cleans the inside of your pipework.
And to give you peace of mind, we will happily prove it, with CCTV camera inspection and locating equipment confirming the cause and clearance.
