Sewer pipe problems we repair
Tree root damage
Roots can enter pipe joints, causing blockages and further damage as they grow.
Cracked or broken pipes
We repair damaged sections affected by deterioration, ground movement or pressure from above.
Separated or misaligned joints
Displaced pipe connections can catch waste and cause recurring blockages.
Sunken pipe sections
Low sections can collect wastewater and debris, leading to repeated drainage problems.
Damaged gully traps and inspection openings
We repair damaged fittings and access points to restore their proper function.
Find the cause before choosing the repair
Where appropriate, we use CCTV drain inspections to assess the pipe's condition and locate damage. We'll explain what we find and recommend a suitable solution.
If the pipe is sound and only needs clearing, we'll explain your drain-clearing options.

Sewer Repair Questions
Have another question? Call 0448 984 771 – we’re happy to help.
Who is responsible for a damaged sewer pipe?
Responsibility depends on where the damage is and which section of pipe is affected. We'll help identify whether the problem involves your private drain or needs to be referred to your water authority.
Can I keep using my toilet?
If sewage is backing up or overflowing, stop using toilets and other plumbing fixtures until the problem has been assessed. Call us for urgent assistance.
Why does my sewer keep blocking after it's cleared?
Recurring blockages can be caused by tree roots, damaged pipes, misaligned joints or a sunken section. A CCTV inspection can help identify the cause so we can recommend a suitable solution.
Is the problem with my sewer or stormwater?
Problems affecting toilets, showers and sinks generally involve the sewer. Overflowing gutters, downpipes or outdoor drains during rain usually involve stormwater. We'll investigate and confirm which system needs attention.
What should I do before you arrive?
Avoid using water if sewage is backing up, keep children and pets away from affected areas and avoid chemical drain cleaners. If safe, clear access to outdoor drain openings.
