What's included

High-pressure water jetting

The most effective method for clearing blocked drains β€” cuts through grease, debris and root intrusion more thoroughly than rodding.

Standard root cutting

Where manageable root intrusion is present, root cutting is included in the standard price at no extra charge.

Site tidy on completion

We leave the area clean and replace any access covers before we go. No mess left behind.

Clear explanation of findings

We explain what caused the blockage, how it was resolved, and whether anything suggests a deeper underlying issue.

When it costs more

When the $449 doesn't cover the full job

The standard price covers a straightforward, accessible, single-line residential blockage. Some situations require a separate quote β€” always explained and approved before any extra work proceeds.

Pipe damage found

If inspection reveals cracked, collapsed or severely root-damaged pipe, clearing alone will not fix the problem. We stop, explain the finding and provide a separate fixed quote for relining or repair before any additional work proceeds.

Multiple lines blocked

The standard price covers the first blocked line. If additional lines need clearing, each is quoted separately before we proceed.

Difficult or restricted access

Where the pipe is unusually deep or there is no accessible inspection point nearby, additional preparation may be needed. This is confirmed and quoted upfront.

CCTV inspection

Camera inspection is not included in the standard blocked drain price. Where the cause is unclear or the blockage keeps recurring, CCTV is recommended as a separate step.
