Collect all hair after shower use or use a hair catcher on a drain to ensure hair does not enter drains and cause them to block
Ensure leaves and debris are kept away from all stormwater lines. Placing protective material like gutter guard or having mesh over your stormwater drains is a great way of ensuring no debris enter the lines

Grease blockages Sydney occur mainly in commercial kitchens or kitchen house lines as fat is poured down the drain. You have probably heard the old expression “oil and water, simply don’t mix. What ends up happening, is the fat will eventually find its way into the bottom of a gully or a sewer line and will eventually block the line. ALL oil MUST be placed into a jar or into a bin and disposed of safely. Pouring fats and oils down your lines will only mean, a blockage is bound to occur.
In commercial sinks and kitchens, its almost impossible to try and prevent oil build up within drain lines. We regularly place preventive maintenance plans in place every 3 months at several commercial kitchens and restaurants and use a product called “Grease Release” to help break down the fat in the lines and ensure all blockages are eliminated. Not having a regular maintenance plan in place could cost the restaurant or kitchen thousands of dollars in downtime if their drains were to ever block during trading hours. Imagine the loss of revenue each time a drain was blocked.
We clear the drain blockage with the use of our powerful drain cleaning equipment
This is the most IMPORTANT PART!
If a blocked drain is not diagnosed after its cleared, and a clear understanding of what caused the blockage to begin with is not found, the likelihood of the blockage re occurring is extremely high. Prevention is cure.
If no major issues are found in the line, no further steps are required
If major problems like root infestation, collapsed lines, excessive grease are found throughout the service, a number of different options including replacement, pipe relining or a maintenance plan will be suggested as a method of repair
A jet blaster put simply is a petrol operated machine which use water (similar to a fire truck) to run water through hoses at pressure in excess of 5000psi to help clear the following issues. These machines are the most effective, cost efficient way of clearing a sewer or stormwater blockage Sydney.
Blocked drains caused by tree roots
Grease line build up
Clearing silt, debris & excessive rubble from drains
Cleaning or hosing down of driveways
A big advantage of having a jet blaster is the fact we have different nozzles for different applications. For example, if we had large tree roots in the line, we could use root cutting nozzles to help eliminate the roots. If we had a large grease build up, we could also use a grease head which targets the breakdown of grease whilst in use.
There are also attachments and hoses to target the smaller sized drains which makes this machine a great tool in tackling the most stubborn of all blockages. The below photo is a number of the many nozzles each one of our drain specialists has in his vehicle, ready to tackle any blockage which you may have.
An eel was a machine used in the early 1990s and 2000’s and was the main method of cleaning drains as no other options were available.
They were heavy, extremely hard to use, worked sometimes and extremely high in maintenance. They damaged pipes and could not get around bends like a jet blaster essentially making them extremely hard to use on all applications.
Fast forward and the benefits of a jet blaster over an eel are endless.
The fact that is its mobile and you can move it anywhere which is needed. A jet blaster can have up to 80m of hose compared to the heavy short attachments of an eel. The efficiency of a jet blaster running at 5000Psi each time compared to an eel which may break down due to the amount of attachments having been placed onto each end. The single most important thing over above all, is a jet blaster will leave your pipes in much better condition and never damage them. An eel nearly 90% of the time damaged all affected sewer lines.
Belly
A belly is where a section of the pipework caves in at a certain section due roots getting into the pipe or the pipe not being adequately supported
Dislocated
Dislocated joints are a major issue which cause blocked drains and is more common in old vitrified clay pipework.
This is where a joint misaligns from its required position allowing tree roots to get into the pipework and cause serious blockages
Tree Roots
Tree roots in drain are the number one source of blocked drains Sydney. Once tree roots get into your pipework they will grow and eventually cause major issues with your pipework if not attended to immediately.
Our machines have the capability to ensure we get rid of stubborn roots that have been growing in your pipework
Reported Problem - Attended a blocked sewer drain in Plumpton with reports of an overflowing sewer drain in the backyard. Conducted a high pressure jet blast and CCTV camera inspection and found multiple issues throughout the line. We provided the customer with a permanent drainage solution in Sydney to help repair the issue permanently.
Works completed to resolve the problem- Access for an excavator into this property was not possible due to the house layout meaning the line at a depth of 1.7m needed to be dug out by hand. Our technicians rolled up their sleeves and dug down to the defective earthenware line which had collapsed.
We dug the line out the defective line and replaced the defective section of pipework with new PVC pipework. We raised an inspection to ground level for any future access which may be needed.
On completion of the works the area was backfilled and site was cleaned.
