Drainage Bundoora. See it first. Then clear it.
A camera goes in before the cable does. You see the cause on a screen — root intrusion, cracked pipe, grease buildup — before paying for the clear. That's the difference between guesswork pricing and an honest fix.
What's covered
- CCTV camera inspection
- Blocked drain clearing
- Stormwater drainage
- Sewer line work
- Drainage repairs + relining
- Smell + flood diagnosis
Every drain, diagnosed before priced.
Half of Bundoora's older homes have earthenware sewer pipes that crack, sag, and root-bind after 50–60 years. Recurring blockages aren't bad luck — they're a structural symptom. The camera tells us whether you need clearing, root cutting, or relining.

Blocked Drains
Kitchen sinks slowing down, showers ponding, the toilet refusing to flush — common patterns, different causes. Camera in, locate the blockage, quote the clear.
- Kitchen, basin, bath, shower, toilet
- CCTV-located first
- Same-visit clear in most cases
- Camera-verified clean line on completion
Clogged Drains
When 'blocked' becomes recurring — the drain clears for a fortnight then re-clogs — that's an underlying issue. Roots, grease build-up, or a structural failure. Diagnose first, fix the root cause, not just the symptom.
- Root cause diagnosis via camera
- Recurring blockage analysis
- Pipe relining where appropriate
- 12-month workmanship warranty
Stormwater Drains
Surface grates, downpipe outlets, ag-line subsoil drains. When stormwater can't get away during Bundoora's wet winters, you get pooling, garden damage, and (worst case) water finding the house slab.
- Surface grate clearing
- Downpipe and gutter clearing
- Ag-line subsoil drain repair
- Stormwater pit cleaning
Drainage Repairs
Cracked pipes, sagged sections (bellies), broken joints, root-bound earthenware — diagnosis tells us what kind of repair we need. Often relining (no-dig) is the answer.
- Section replacement
- Pipe relining (trenchless)
- Joint reseat / repair
- Root cutting + reline combo
Smelly Drains
Bad smell that air-freshener won't fix is usually a partial blockage, a failed gully trap seal, or a vent stack issue. Camera + smoke test diagnose in 30 minutes.
- Partial blockage clearing
- Gully trap re-seal
- Vent stack inspection
- Smoke-test for leak path
Broken Drain Pipe
Excavator hits a line, ground movement after drought-then-flood seasons, tree root pressure — drain pipes break in predictable ways. Locate, expose, repair or reline.
- Underground locate without trial digs
- Repair vs. reline assessment
- Trenchless option where possible
- Backfill + reinstatement
Blocked Toilet
Sometimes the pan, sometimes the S-trap, sometimes the sewer line downstream. The camera tells us where the blockage is — and where the bill stops.
- Pan vs. line vs. sewer diagnosis
- Same-visit clear in most cases
- No additional charge to diagnose
- Children's-toy-in-toilet specialist
Blocked Sinks
Kitchen sinks block most often — grease + soap + food scraps form a wax-like layer that builds until water stops moving. Jet rod clears it; habit change keeps it cleared.
- Jet rod or cable clear
- Trap dismount + clean
- Prevention coaching
- 12-month no-reblock warranty on cleared lines
Blocked Sewage
The job nobody wants but everyone needs. Backed-up sewage is a health hazard — sanitise the affected areas, clear the line, document the cause for your insurer.
- Emergency response priority
- Health-grade sanitisation
- Cause documentation for insurance
- Council main coordination if needed

HD CCTV inspection for pre-purchase reports, recurring blockages, and insurance claims. Footage saved, written report next business day.
- HD footage saved to file
