CBD properties deal with blocked drains more than most. Older buildings along George Street and Pitt Street have cast iron and earthenware pipes that have been in the ground for decades. Tree roots from street plantings push through pipe joints. Restaurants and food courts in areas like Haymarket and Darling Harbour put heavy grease loads through drainage systems never designed for commercial kitchens. We see it all, and we fix it properly the first time.
Fig trees and other large species planted along CBD streets send roots metres underground. They find pipe joints, push through, and create a net that catches everything flowing past. We clear the roots and reline the pipe to stop regrowth.
Commercial kitchens produce enormous volumes of cooking fat. Even with grease traps, residual oil coats pipe walls and hardens over time. We use high-pressure hydro jetting at 5,000 PSI to strip grease back to bare pipe and restore full flow.
Wipes, sanitary products, food scraps, and construction debris are common culprits in CBD buildings with high foot traffic. These items lodge at bends and junctions, causing backups that worsen quickly in multi-storey buildings.
Earthenware and cast iron pipes in buildings built before the 1970s eventually crack and collapse. Soil enters the pipe, reducing capacity until flow stops completely. CCTV inspection identifies the exact location and extent of damage.
Every blocked drain job starts with a CCTV drain camera inspection. We insert a high-definition camera into the pipe to see exactly what is causing the blockage, where it is, and the condition of the surrounding pipe. This takes the guesswork out of the job and means we quote accurately.
For soft blockages like grease, hair, and organic matter, hydro jetting clears the pipe in minutes. The high-pressure water jet cuts through buildup and flushes debris downstream. For tree roots, we use an electric eel or robotic cutter first, then hydro jet to clean the pipe walls, then recommend pipe relining to seal the joints and prevent regrowth.
After clearing, we run the CCTV camera through again to confirm the pipe is clean and structurally sound. You get a copy of the footage if you need it for strata records or insurance claims.
We work with strata managers and building managers across the CBD to maintain shared drainage infrastructure. That includes scheduled CCTV inspections, grease trap servicing, main line clearing, and emergency callouts when a blockage affects multiple units. We provide detailed reports with camera footage, pipe condition assessments, and maintenance recommendations that satisfy strata compliance requirements.
We provide blocked drains services across Sydney CBD and surrounding suburbs.
