Blocked Drains & CCTV Drain Inspection
Camera first, so we fix the cause not the symptom.
What this covers
- Kitchen and bathroom drain clearing
- Main sewer line clearing
- Hydro-jetting and root cutting
- CCTV drain camera survey
- Gully trap and downpipe clearing
- Drain repair and relining
Most Auckland blockages are one of three things: tree roots in an old earthenware line, a fat and grease build-up in the kitchen branch, or something that should never have been flushed. Clearing the blockage takes half an hour. Working out why it happened is what stops it recurring.
Camera survey included
On any main-line blockage we put a CCTV camera down the pipe afterwards and show you the footage. You get to see the actual condition of your drain rather than taking our word for it — and if it is a one-off, we will tell you that too.
Hydro-jetting versus rodding
Electric eels cut a hole through a blockage. High-pressure water jetting scours the full bore of the pipe, which is why we prefer it for grease and root work. On fragile older lines we assess first — jetting a cracked earthenware pipe is a good way to make a small job into a big one.
When relining makes sense
If the survey shows cracked or displaced sections, a cured-in-place liner is usually far cheaper and far less disruptive than excavating the driveway. We will quote both options honestly.
