At SEQ Blocked Drains, we follow a thorough process to ensure that your sewer blockages are cleared effectively and that your system is restored to full functionality:
The first step in clearing a blocked sewer line is to conduct a CCTV Inspection. This allows us to accurately diagnose the cause and location of the blockage. Our high-resolution cameras can navigate through your sewer pipes, providing a clear view of any obstructions, such as tree roots, grease build-up, or foreign objects.
Once the blockage has been identified, we use our high-pressure Drain Jetting equipment to clear it. Our jetting equipment operates at 4000 PSI and 72 litres per minute, providing powerful, targeted cleaning that can remove even the most stubborn blockages. For particularly tough clogs, we also offer hot water jetting, which can reach temperatures of up to 100 degrees to break down grease and fat deposits.
If tree roots are the cause of the blockage, we use specialised tools such as robotic cutters and picote grabbers to remove them. These tools allow us to clear the roots without damaging the surrounding pipes, ensuring that your sewer line is fully cleared and functional.
After the blockage has been cleared, we conduct a final CCTV inspection to ensure that the sewer line is completely clear. We also provide advice on preventative measures, such as regular maintenance and Tree Roots management, to help you avoid future blockages.
Regular maintenance of your sewer lines is crucial to preventing blockages and ensuring the long-term health of your plumbing system. At SEQ Blocked Drains, we offer comprehensive maintenance services, including CCTV Inspections and Drain Jetting, to keep your sewer lines clear and functional.

Common signs of a blocked sewer line include slow draining water, gurgling sounds from drains, foul odours, and sewage backups. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to contact a professional blocked sewer plumber as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
While there are some DIY methods for clearing minor drain blockages, sewer blockages often require professional equipment and expertise to remove effectively. Attempting to clear a sewer blockage yourself can sometimes worsen the problem or cause damage to the pipes. It’s best to contact a professional plumber to handle the job.
Preventing sewer blockages involves regular maintenance, proper waste disposal, and proactive root management. Scheduling regular CCTV Inspections and Drain Jetting can help keep your sewer lines clear, while avoiding flushing foreign objects and managing tree roots can reduce the risk of blockages.
