Blocked drains cleared in Botany
Gully overflowing, toilet gurgling or stormwater pooling in the yard? We clear blocked sewer and stormwater drains in Botany homes with high-pressure jetting and root cutting, then check the pipe with a CCTV camera. We're based next door in Matraville, and you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Old clay sewer lines
Botany's older cottages, semis and terraces often still have their original clay sewer drains. Over the decades the joints crack and shift, roots get in, and the line starts blocking again and again. In semis and terraces, sewer lines can run close to or under the neighbouring property, so a camera inspection is the best way to see where the problem actually is before anything is dug or relined.
Stormwater on low-lying blocks
Near Botany Bay, many blocks are flat and low-lying, so stormwater drains slowly and pits fill with silt and sand. In heavy rain, a blocked pit or broken pipe means water pools against the house or under the floor. We clear the pits and pipes, find any breaks, and fix the cause. See our stormwater service.

High-pressure water and a root-cutting head clear the line from wall to wall.

Common questions
Why does my Botany drain keep blocking?
Usually roots in cracked joints of old clay sewer pipes. A camera inspection shows exactly where.
Why does my yard flood in heavy rain?
On low-lying blocks, blocked pits or broken stormwater pipes stop water getting away. We find and fix the cause.
Can you clear both sewer and stormwater?
Yes. We clear both and check the pipes with a camera.
Will you need to dig?
Not usually. Most blockages clear with jetting, and many damaged pipes can be relined.
