Blocked drains Strathfield homes report: your pipe or Sydney Water's?

Your private sewer line runs from the house to Sydney Water's sewer main, and on some older blocks that main crosses the backyard rather than running under the street. A blockage in your own line is yours to clear, but one in the main is Sydney Water's. The camera shows exactly where the blockage sits, and if it's in the main, we'll tell you so you can report it to Sydney Water instead of paying us. Not all blocked drains Strathfield homes report are the owner's problem.

Finding the way in on a big block

On a large, landscaped block, the inspection openings on the sewer line often disappear over the years: paved over, buried under garden beds or hidden behind a hedge. Without one, the blockage can only be reached from inside the house. The camera and a locator trace the line so we can find and mark the openings, and we'll tell you where adding one would help next time. A fair share of the time spent on blocked drains Strathfield homes report goes into finding access.

Tall trees and long sewer runs

Strathfield's tall trees have wide, deep roots, and on a big block the sewer can pass several of them on its way to the main. Roots get into old clay joints and grow into a mat that catches everything. The jetter cuts them back, but in a cracked line they return. For blocked drains, Strathfield homes with big trees often end up relining the worst sections, done by our partner relining team, so the roots can't get back in.

Apartment towers near the station

The towers near the station have shared stacks, basement drains and, at street level, restaurants and food shops whose kitchens drain into the same building lines. Grease from a ground-floor kitchen can block a stack that serves everyone above it. We clear the line, find the cause, and give the strata manager a report with photos. Blocked drains Strathfield apartment buildings get are often common property.

North Strathfield

Blocked drains Strathfield and North Strathfield homes report get the same camera-first approach and a fixed price before work, on either side of the line.

How we clear blocked drains Strathfield homes report
