Tall stacks in the Homebush Bay towers
In a tower, one stack can carry waste from dozens of apartments down to the basement. A blockage near the bottom backs up into the lowest units first, while the floors above keep draining and adding to it, so speed matters. Stacks have inspection openings at intervals up the building, and we use them to put the camera in close to the problem and clear it without opening walls. The building manager gets a report showing where the blockage was and what it was made of. Blocked drains Homebush towers report usually trace back to wipes, fat or something that should never have been flushed.
Older brick homes and roots
The older brick homes drain through clay sewer lines, and roots from established gardens find the joints. The rough inside of old clay also catches grease and paper. The jetter clears both, and the camera shows whether the pipe is cracked. If it is, relining by our partner relining team repairs it from inside. For blocked drains, Homebush homes with big trees in the yard often need that long-term fix, because roots are behind many of the repeat blocked drains Homebush brick homes get.
Townhouse developments
Where older homes have made way for townhouses, the new homes usually share a sewer line before it reaches the main. A blockage in the shared section affects every home upstream, and the strata or community scheme usually pays. The camera shows where it is, and the report tells the manager whose job it is. Blocked drains Homebush townhouse complexes report are usually in that shared section.
Apartments near the station
The mid-rise buildings near the station block with wipes, fat and hair, and their basement grates fill with leaves and rubbish blown in from the street. Blocked drains Homebush apartment buildings report are usually in shared pipe, so the strata manager books the work and gets the report. Inside each unit, a strainer in the shower and a bin in the bathroom prevent most of it.
Building sites and stormwater
With so much building going on around Homebush, silt and construction debris can end up in stormwater pits and lines downhill of a site. When pits fill, water pools across driveways and courtyards. We clear the pits, jet the lines and camera them, and the footage shows what's in there. Plenty of the blocked drains Homebush homes see after storms are stormwater rather than sewer.
