What You Get With Blocked Drains
We clear kitchen, bathroom, sewer and stormwater blockages, and work out why the drain backed up in the first place. That second part matters more than most people expect.
- CCTV camera inspection to locate the blockage precisely
- High-pressure jetting for roots, grease and built-up debris
- Sewer and stormwater line clearing for whole-house backups
- Diagnosis of recurring blockages, not just another clear-out
- A written price, confirmed before any tool touches the drain
A single overflowing gully outside is a different job to sewage rising through more than one fixture indoors. Both get cleared; the second one jumps the queue.
How to Know It's Time for Blocked Drains
A few signs point straight to now, not later.
- Sewage or grey water rising in a floor waste, gully or toilet bowl
- Two or more fixtures affected at once
- Loud gurgling from a drain when a different tap or toilet runs
- A persistent smell around an outdoor gully trap
- Draining that's slowed noticeably over the past day or two
- Standing water near the house after rain that won't soak away
A single slow sink with everything else running fine typically waits for an ordinary booking. One blocked toilet, on its own, is its own animal.
See our blocked toilet page for that case specifically. The distinction matters because a single-fixture blockage is usually a local clog, while gurgling and slow draining spreading across the house points to the shared line further down.
What We See on Waverley Jobs
Waverley packs semis, heritage terraces and unit blocks close together, and that density changes how a blockage plays out.
A shared boundary trap between two terraces means one household's blockage can show up in next door's yard first. In a strata building, a single stack blockage can hit several units at once, so knowing who else to warn becomes part of the job.
Around Carrington Road, that close-set housing also means we're often assessing side access to the drain run before we even open a tool bag.
What Moves the Price of Blocked Drains
Every quote is fixed and agreed before the work starts. A handful of things shape what that figure looks like.
- How the blockage is reached (indoor fixture, outdoor gully, roof void)
- Single fixture versus a shared line affecting more than one household
- Whether CCTV inspection is needed to pin down the cause
- Jetting against a simpler mechanical clear, depending on what's actually there
- Any repair work the inspection turns up beyond the initial clear
None of these change once we've quoted. If the job turns out to need more than expected, that's a new conversation and a fresh number to approve, never a surprise on the invoice.
Narrow side access between semis and terraces near Carrington Road can add time just reaching the drain run. That gets built into your quote upfront, never added after we've started.
How We Work, From First Ring to Fixed
- Your part takes one phone call. Tell us what's happening and where you are. We handle everything from that point on.
- While we're on the way, you're not alone. We'll tell you what to turn off, what to move and what to leave well alone.
- You make one decision. We hand you a fixed price and you say yes or no. No pressure, no jargon, no fine print.
- Then you go back to your night. We fix it, test it, leave it verified safe and see ourselves out quietly.
Most straightforward clears are wrapped up a couple of hours after the van arrives. A job needing CCTV work or a longer jetting run typically takes more of the evening, and we'll say so before we start, not after.
What the Law Asks of Blocked Drains
NSW drainage work has to be carried out by a licensed plumber, full stop. That's who shows up to your job, always.
Responsibility for the pipe itself splits at your boundary. Inside that line, maintenance is on you as the owner; past it, the water authority takes over.
When a blockage sits on their side, we'll say so plainly rather than open a job that isn't ours to bill for. Knowing which side of that line you're on saves an argument with the wrong tradesperson later.
The Team to Ring for Blocked Drains
An 11pm blocked drain needs someone who actually shows up, not a slot booked for "sometime tomorrow." That's what we're built for.
You're talking to a licensed plumber from the first ring, and the work is warrantied, full stop. No exaggerated call-out promise, just a real person who gets a van moving and keeps you posted while it's on its way.
Paired Jobs and Surrounding Areas
A blocked drain sometimes shows up alongside a blocked toilet, or a water leak you hadn't clocked yet. When they're connected, one callout covers all of it.
We work right across Waverley and out through Bronte, Bondi, Clovelly, Coogee and Dover Heights, so a job just past the boundary is no trouble either.
Being on that run daily means we're rarely starting from a cold guess about how these streets are laid out or where the older lines tend to sit.

Good questions, straight answers
Your Waverley Blocked Drains FAQs
Straight answers to what people ask before we arrive.
Is your blocked drains work guaranteed?
Every blocked drains repair carries our Lifetime Labour Warranty: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Should I stop using taps and toilets until you get here?
Stop running water into the fixture that's backing up. Anything else in the house draining normally is fine to keep using.
Does my blocked drains problem count as an emergency?
Sewage on the floor, water pooling outside near the house, or several fixtures blocked together, that's an emergency. One sluggish sink on its own can usually hold for a booked visit.
Can I book blocked drains work at night or on a public holiday?
Yes, any hour, every day of the year. A licensed plumber answers the phone for blocked drains calls, not a machine.
What should I have ready when the plumber knocks?
Clear the area around the blocked fixture and, if you can find it, the outdoor drain access point. We bring the rest.
Why does this keep happening?
A drain that blocks again and again usually has a cause sitting behind it, like a root in the joint or a cracked section of pipe. We look for that cause before we call the job finished, not just clear the immediate blockage.
