QBCC PD15117207 CCTV Inspection High-Pressure Jetting No-Dig Repairs

What causes a blocked drain?

Tree roots are the big one on the Sunshine Coast โ€” the clay soil and leafy backyards mean roots find their way into older PVC and earthenware pipes. After that it's wet wipes (even the "flushable" kind โ€” they're not), food scraps, hair, and the general build-up that comes with family life.

How we clear it

1. Diagnose โ€” CCTV camera into the drain to find exactly what's blocking it and where.

2. Clear โ€” High-pressure water jetter for most blockages. We don't rip up your yard unless we have to.

3. Prevent โ€” If roots are the cause, we'll quote on a repair that stops it coming back.

Common questions

How much does it cost to unblock a drain?

Standard clear starts at $250. If we need CCTV it's from $350. We quote on site before starting if there's a bigger issue.

What causes blocked drains on the Sunshine Coast?

Tree roots in older PVC and earthenware pipes are the top cause. Then wet wipes, grease, food scraps and hair build-up.

Are flushable wipes actually flushable?

No. They don't break down. They're the number one blockage cause in modern plumbing. If it's not toilet paper, it goes in the bin.

Will the plumber dig up my yard?

Not if we can help it. CCTV inspection and jetting handle most blockages. If we have to dig, we quote first and keep the mess minimal.

Can I use drain cleaner from the supermarket first?

Short-term it might shift a soft clog. Long-term those chemicals damage your pipes and don't fix the actual cause.
