I used this service for my gas connection and had the opportunity to meet three technicians across different visits for both the gas work and plastering. Te and both Sams were professional and friendly. They took the time to explain everything and completed the work to a high standard. I would definitely use their service again.

Trusted Blocked Drain Plumbers in Greenwich Trusted Blocked Drain Plumbers in Greenwich

Greenwich is one of the Lower North Shore’s oldest pockets, its Federation and Edwardian homes stepping down the peninsula toward Greenwich Point. Many still rely on original clay sewer runs threaded through sandstone, where root intrusion and cracked joints cause most of the blockages we clear.

With the Lane Cove River on one side and Gore Cove on the other, everything in Greenwich drains steeply to the water. Storm flows tear down those falls and hammer ageing stormwater lines, we know the trouble spots and how to fix them properly.

Local Area Guide

Blocked Drains in Greenwich

Greenwich occupies a leafy peninsula on Sydney’s Lower North Shore (postcode 2065), bounded by the Lane Cove River, Gore Cove and the neighbouring suburbs of Wollstonecraft, St Leonards and Lane Cove. Its Federation homes on steep sandstone blocks are gorgeous, and their original drains are hard-worked antiques. A harbour village of sandstone lanes and federation gardens, where every drain run ends at salt water.

Common blocked-drain problems we see in Greenwich

  • Federation-era clay drains. Homes from Greenwich Road down to the Point still run earthenware sewer lines laid over a century ago, now cracked and prone to root entry.
  • Sandstone-bed pipe movement. Pipes threaded across the peninsula’s sandstone shelves shift at the joints as ground and tree loads change, opening gaps that snag waste.
  • Steep falls to the harbour. Stormwater plunges toward Gore Cove and the Lane Cove River, scouring silt and leaves into ageing stormwater lines that block in heavy rain.
  • Established garden roots. A century of jacarandas, figs and camellias means dense root systems probing every sewer joint on the peninsula for moisture.
  • Point-road tidal edges. The point’s waterfront lines negotiate tidal groundwater at every joint.
  • Hospital-hill runoff. Storm flows off the hospital hill race the lanes to the harbour, punishing silted pits.

How we clear blocked drains in Greenwich

01

CCTV drain inspection

A camera pinpoints the exact blockage or fault, so we fix the right thing the first time, no guesswork.

02

High-pressure jet blasting

Powerful water jets cut through grease, tree roots and built-up debris to clear the whole line.

03

No-dig pipe relining

A new liner is cured inside the old pipe, sealing cracks and joints without digging up your yard.

04

Excavation & repairs

Where a pipe has collapsed, we dig, replace and reinstate the line properly and tidily.

Signs you’ve got a blocked drain

  • Slow-draining sinks, showers or tubs
  • Gurgling sounds from drains or the toilet
  • Bad smells rising from drains or gullies
  • Water pooling in the yard or an overflowing gully
  • Wastewater backing up inside (sewage backflow)

Still have Question?

Same-day across Greenwich, and usually within the hour for emergencies anywhere on the Lower North Shore. You’ll get a firm ETA when you ring.
Yes, Greenwich’s sloping sandstone blocks are home turf for us. Our gear reaches lines that standard setups can’t.
We do. A CCTV survey shows exactly what’s wrong in your Greenwich pipe and where, so the quote covers the real fix, not guesswork.
In most cases, yes. Relining renews old clay lines under Greenwich gardens and paths without excavation, ideal for established Federation blocks.
Always, 24/7 including public holidays. Sewage overflows and blocked toilets in Greenwich get immediate attention.
Every job gets a fixed quote up front, before work starts, and booking online saves you $50.
For most homes in Greenwich, a straightforward blockage typically runs $150–$400, high-pressure jetting sits around $250–$600, and heavier root-cutting work can reach $400–$1,200. You approve a fixed upfront price before we start, the quote is the price.
Three things: what’s blocking it, how far down the line it sits, and whether the pipe is damaged. The camera tells us all three before you approve anything. Standalone CCTV inspections typically run $300–$750; no-dig relining is priced per metre and avoids excavation bills of $2,500+.
We keep it simple: one fixed price, approved by you up front, before any work starts. Online bookings save $50.
