Root blockages in West Croydon backyards

In West Croydon's older houses, the classic blockage is roots: fine roots enter earthenware joints under the backyard, thicken into a mat and catch paper and wipes until the line slows. You see it first as a toilet that gurgles or rises, a slow shower, or water bubbling up through the outside overflow gully grate. Kitchen fat and lint from the laundry trough add to it.

We cut the roots out with a drain machine, then flush the line with a high-pressure jetter to clear what's left. Tell us which fixtures are slow and whether the gully has overflowed. The visit charge is confirmed when you book, and you'll have the price of the clearing before we start.

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.

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 West Croydon questions

Got another question? Call us and we’ll talk it through.

Can you clear a blocked drain in West Croydon?

Yes. Toilets, sewers, sinks, showers, laundries and stormwater lines for homes and rentals in West Croydon. 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.
