Drains here do not block at random. They block because a tree found a gap in a clay pipe laid seventy years ago and has been quietly filling it since. Knowing that changes what you should ask a plumber to do about it.

Ring us and you get questions first, not a price. Which fixtures are affected, one or all of them, how long it has been slowing. That tells us what to bring on the 4.3 kilometre run out to you.

    About Pendle Hill

    The station opened in 1924 and the suburb grew out from it, mostly in the fifties and sixties. That timing is why so many houses here drain through earthenware, the short clay lengths that were standard when those fibro and brick cottages were built. Seventy years on, every joint is a candidate.

    Above ground there is plenty feeding the problem. Mature street and garden trees, native gums around the Castrella homestead, established green at Civic Park and Binalong Park. Below ground the clay soil swells and shrinks with the seasons, opening joints that were sealed when they went in.

    Blocked drain work we do in Pendle Hill

    Most jobs here are root jobs. A hair root gets through a shifted joint, thickens into a mat, and then catches everything that goes past until the line closes. We cut it out with a jetter, which shears the root back to the pipe wall instead of just punching a hole through the middle the way a cable does.

    The rest is the usual mix. Grease building up on a kitchen line. Wipes labelled flushable that were not. Stormwater pits choked with leaf litter after a big blow. Occasionally a section cracked badly enough that clearing only buys time, and we will say so and talk about relining rather than booking you in again next winter. Our main blocked drains page runs through the method.

    Blocked drain questions from Pendle Hill

    What makes tree roots get into a sewer pipe in the first place?
    Roots follow moisture. An earthenware joint that has shifted lets out a little vapour, the root finds it, and once a fine root is through it thickens inside the pipe where there is water and room.
    Can I just pour drain cleaner down it?
    It rarely touches a root mass, and it sits in the pipe doing nothing useful. If you have already used some, tell us so we know what is down there before we open anything.
    How do I tell if the blockage is mine or the neighbour's?
    Some older Pendle Hill blocks share a line, and a duplex often does. The camera settles it by showing where the obstruction sits relative to the boundary, rather than anyone guessing.
    Does the camera inspection cost extra on top of the clearing?
    No. It is part of how we work out what is wrong, so it sits inside the fixed price you approve at the start. Nothing gets added to the invoice afterwards.
    The drain is slow but not blocked yet. Worth looking now?
    Usually yes. Slow draining means the pipe is already partly closed up, and it is cheaper to deal with on a Tuesday than at midnight when it finally stops.
