Blocked drains in south Brisbane & Logan

For blocked drains, we can assess sink, shower, toilet and drain issues using our CCTV camera, locator, jetter and drain snakes where suitable. Investigation and clearing options are explained before you approve the work.

A price you approve

We explain the work and fixed price before starting. Any paid investigation is agreed separately.

Lifetime workmanship guarantee

We back our work. Ask us how the guarantee applies to the work in your quote.

Respect for your time

An agreed arrival window and an on-the-way call or text. We arrive in our booking window or you get $50 off.

Slow, gurgling or repeatedly blocked drains?

Tell us which sink, shower, toilet or outdoor drain is affected, and whether the problem comes back after clearing. These details help us plan the assessment. A recurring blockage needs investigation of the cause rather than an assumption about what is inside the pipe.

Clearing the blockage or repairing the pipe

Our camera, locator, jetter and drain snakes give us different investigation and clearing options. We explain which approach is suitable. If assessment identifies damaged pipework, we discuss the repair and access separately before you approve the price.

Assess before recommending work

Equipment to investigate the issue

Our drain equipment includes a CCTV camera, locator, jetter and drain snakes. We assess what is needed and explain the recommended work.

If more involved diagnostics are needed to identify the cause, we walk you through the options and what is required step by step on site. Any diagnostic costs are explained and approved before we proceed.

Helpful answers

Blocked drains: your questions answered

Know what to expect before you request a visit. For anything else, call and talk us through the problem.

Do all blocked drains need a camera inspection?

No single approach suits every drain. We assess the problem and explain whether CCTV inspection, locating or a clearing method is appropriate before agreeing the work.

Can tree roots be the cause?

Tree roots are one possible cause of drainage problems, but we do not assume they are present. A suitable inspection can help establish what is happening inside the affected drain.

What if the drain keeps blocking?

Tell us when it was last cleared and what changed afterwards. We can discuss further investigation and any repair options supported by the assessment.

How is the price agreed?

We assess the issue, explain your options and quote a fixed price before starting. If further investigation is needed, its steps and costs are agreed with you first.
