Andrew will call you back shortly.

A blocked drain in the hills is often a bigger job than it looks, especially once tree roots or an ageing sewer line get involved. Andrew sorts it properly rather than guessing, starting with what's actually causing it before reaching for a plunger and hoping.

Not just cleared. Found, fixed and explained.

About Drain Work Across the Perth Hills

The Perth Hills sits across Kalamunda, Mundaring and the Swan Valley, and each area brings its own quirks when it comes to blockage and drain works.

Tree Roots and Older Sewer Lines

Established trees look great on a hills block, but their roots are one of the more common causes of a blocked sewer line as a property ages. Andrew uses CCTV inspection to confirm what’s going on before recommending any digging.

Septic Systems and Leach Drains

Further out in the hills, some properties still run on septic systems and leach drains rather than mains sewer. Andrew services those alongside the everyday drain work, including the digging work when it’s needed.

Stormwater Drainage in Winter

Hills winters bring heavy rainfall, and stormwater drains that cope fine most of the year can back up fast when it hits.

Servicing Kalamunda, Mundaring, the Swan Valley and surrounding Perth Hills suburbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you clear a blocked drain?

Andrew starts by working out what’s actually causing it rather than just having a go with whatever’s on hand. CCTV inspection comes in where it helps, then he clears it with the right tool for the job, whether that’s high-pressure jetting or a drain machine, so the blockage is actually gone rather than just pushed further down the line.

Do you use CCTV inspection to find the cause of a blockage?

Yes. It lets Andrew see exactly what’s happening inside the pipe before he recommends anything, so you’re not paying for guesswork, and it also means he’ll know straightaway whether any digging is genuinely needed or not.

Do you service septic systems and leach drains?

Yes. Plenty of properties in the Perth Hills and surrounds run on septic systems and leach drains instead of mains sewer, and Andrew services those right alongside his everyday drain work.

Can a blocked drain actually be a sign of a bigger problem?

Sometimes, yes, and it’s worth knowing that going in. What looks like a simple blockage on the surface can turn out to be a cracked pipe or tree root damage underneath, which is exactly why Andrew checks properly rather than clearing the surface problem and calling it done.

Do you offer high-pressure drain jetting?

Yes. It’s one of the main ways Andrew shifts blockages that a plunger simply won’t touch, and it does a proper job of clearing the line rather than just moving the problem along.

Do you handle blocked stormwater drains?

Yes. It’s a job that comes up more through the wetter winter months, when drains that cope fine most of the year suddenly can’t keep up, and Andrew handles those the same as any other blocked drain.

Do you work on commercial or strata drainage?

Yes. Alongside residential jobs, Andrew takes on commercial and strata drain clearing, plus scheduled CCTV inspections for property managers who’d rather catch a problem early than deal with it once it’s already caused damage.
