Blocked Drains Brisbane Northside — CCTV & Hydro-Jet Specialists
Blocked drains are one of the most common plumbing issues in Brisbane homes. Tree roots, grease build-up, and debris cause pipes to clog — stopping water flowing properly. Our plumbers use CCTV camera inspection to find the exact cause and high-pressure hydro-jetting to clear it permanently. We don't just clear it and leave — we find out why it blocked so it doesn't happen again.

Tree Roots Completely Blocked the Sewer
The Problem
Everything backing up - toilet gurgling, shower draining slow, smell of sewage. 'We've got massive trees out front and I reckon that's the problem.'
Our Solution
Put the camera down and yep - tree roots everywhere, completely choking the pipe. Hit it with the high-pressure jetter to cut through all the roots. Applied treatment to slow regrowth.
The Result
Everything draining perfectly now. They signed up for yearly maintenance to keep the roots under control. No more problems in 3 years.
Restaurant Disaster on Saturday Night
The Problem
Restaurant owner called in absolute panic - middle of Saturday dinner service and the kitchen sink was backing up. 'We're going to have to close if you can't fix this fast!'
Our Solution
Dropped everything and got there ASAP. Years of grease had built up and completely blocked the pipe. Blasted through it with our commercial jetter.
The Result
Kitchen back in business within 90 minutes. Saved them from closing on their busiest night. Set them up with monthly maintenance so it never happens again.
Backyard Turning Into a Swamp
The Problem
Every time it rained heavily, the backyard flooded for days. Water sitting against the house. Other plumbers scratched their heads and couldn't work it out.
Our Solution
Camera showed a section of the old terracotta pipe had collapsed. Dug it up, replaced with new PVC pipe, made sure the grade was right.
The Result
Next big storm - perfect drainage, no flooding. They were rapt. 'Should have called you guys first!'

What's causing my drain to keep blocking?

Do you use high-pressure water jetting?
Yes — hydro-jetting is our primary clearing method for serious blockages. It's far more effective than a plunger or drain snake and removes grease, scale, and roots thoroughly.
