Drains and sewers

Blocked sinks, slow showers, overflowing toilets and smelly manholes — we clear blockages fast with the right tools and find out why they happened so they don't come back next week.

Drains and sewers

What we fix

  • Blocked kitchen sinks and grease build-up
  • Slow or blocked showers and floor drains
  • Toilets that overflow or drain slowly
  • Blocked sewer lines and manholes
  • Bad smells from drains and gully traps
  • Septic tank and soak-pit problems
  • Rainwater drains that flood the compound
  • Root intrusion and broken drain pipes

How we do it

  1. Tell us where the blockage is and how long it has been slow
  2. We bring hand augers, drain rods and plungers suited to the job
  3. We clear the blockage and flush the line
  4. We explain the cause — grease, wipes, roots or a broken pipe — and how to prevent it

When to call us

  • Gurgling sounds from sinks or toilets
  • Water rising in the shower when the toilet flushes
  • Sewage smell in the compound
  • Several drains slow at the same time

Spotting these early usually makes the repair smaller and cheaper.

Questions customers ask

Why does my sink keep blocking?

Kitchen grease and food waste build up inside the pipe. We clear it and show you simple ways to stop it happening again.

Do you empty septic tanks?

We diagnose septic and soak-pit problems and arrange emptying with licensed exhauster partners.

Can you fix a drain under a slab?

Often yes, without breaking the floor. If a pipe is broken we quote the repair before starting.
