Which drain is it?
One slow fixture usually means a blockage in its own branch. Several backing up at once, or water at the outside gully, points to the main sewer line.

What blocks drains in Happy Valley homes
Most Happy Valley homes are separate houses on suburban blocks, and their drains block in familiar ways. Roots creep into older earthenware joints, fat sets in the kitchen line and wipes snag in the toilet branch. In winter, leaves and silt from gardens and nearby bushland wash into stormwater pits and downpipes. A single slow sink points to its own branch; water rising at the outside gully points to the main drain.
We clear it with a high-pressure jetter or a drain machine, whichever the blockage needs, and show you what came out. Tell us which fixtures are slow, whether it started after heavy rain and where the gully is. You'll know the price before we start.
The right tool
A high-pressure jetter flushes out fat, silt and wipes. A drain machine cuts through tree roots. We use whichever the blockage needs.
FAQ
Blocked drains in Happy Valley questions
Got another question? Call us and we’ll talk it through.
Can you clear a blocked drain in Happy Valley?
Yes. Toilets, sewers, sinks, showers, laundries and stormwater lines for homes and rentals in Happy Valley. Tell us which drain and what it’s doing when you call.
Why is water coming up through the outside gully?
The overflow gully outside is there to let a blocked sewer spill outside rather than inside. Water at its grate usually means the main drain is blocked further down. Stop running water and call us.
Can you clear tree roots from a drain?
Yes. A drain machine cuts roots out of the line and a high-pressure jetter flushes it clean. If roots keep coming back, a camera inspection shows the joint they’re getting in at, so the fix lasts.
What does it cost to clear a drain?
We confirm the visit charge when you book. Once we’ve found the cause, you get the price of the clearing or the repair before any work starts, so every item is agreed first.
