Drain services on the Bellarine and Surf Coast
Whether you’re in Torquay, Leopold or Point Lonsdale, our local crew brings the same gear to every job.
Clearing blocked drains
We clear blocked drains with a high pressure water jet, a drain clearing machine, or both. What we use depends on what the camera finds.
Looking inside your pipes
Our CCTV drain cameras show where a blockage is and what caused it. You see the footage from before and after we clear it.
Fixing broken pipes
If roots or cracks keep blocking a drain, we can line it from the inside. There’s no trench to dig and nothing to restore once we leave.
Keeping your stormwater drains clear
Stormwater is the rain that runs off your roof, driveway, paths and garden. It flows through pipes under the ground, then into creeks, rivers and out to sea. Leaves, soil and tree roots can all block these pipes.
A few simple habits help stop blockages and keep our waterways clean:
- Rake up leaves and grass clippings before heavy rain washes them into a drain.
- Keep gravel and loose soil from washing into grates and pits.
- Never pour paint or chemicals down any drain. Take them to a recycling centre.
- Wash your car on the grass or at a car wash.
- If you have a septic system, keep it well maintained so it doesn’t leak.
In heavy rain, watch for overflowing gutters, blocked downpipes or water pooling where it shouldn’t. These point to a problem inside your drains. Read our guide to fixing stormwater drain problems.
Questions from Bellarine and Surf Coast customers
Should I replace my drains if they keep blocking?
No, you don’t need to. We clear the drain properly first. Then we reline it from the inside so it stops blocking. Your garden, paths and driveway stay put.
How do pipes get broken under the ground?
Renovations, heavy vehicles and recent digging can all crush or crack a drain. The ground can also move after very heavy rain or a long drought, and that can break pipes too.
Who looks after the stormwater drains on my property?
If you own the property, you do. That covers the pipes and any stormwater pits, which can block as well. We can check and clear both.
Clearing blocked drains
A blocked drain is a pain. It can also cause health problems and damage your home. Most blockages happen in one of two drains: the sewer or the stormwater.
- It’s a sewer problem if it affects things inside your home, like toilets, sinks, basins, baths or showers.
- It’s a stormwater problem if it shows up most in heavy rain. Think blocked downpipes, pits and overflowing grates. Tree roots growing into the pipe are the usual cause.
How we do it, in 3 easy steps
We get the background
When you book, we ask about the blockage so your Drain Man is informed. Onsite, your Drain Man will confirm the details of the job and then get straight to work.
We look with a camera, then clear it
An in-drain camera finds where the blockage is. A high pressure water jet or a drain clearing machine clears it. Then we run the camera again, and you get the before and after footage.
We fix the cause
Your Drain Man shows you how to avoid more blockages. If the pipe needs it, you get a repair plan for a permanent fix.
Drain relining
Got a broken, collapsed, blocked or root filled drain? We clear the blockage without making things worse.
Our no dig drain relining uses trenchless technology. So you don’t pay to dig up and replace driveways, paths, patios or gardens. Every relined drain carries a lifetime warranty.
We use CCTV cameras to find the cause and high pressure water jets to clean the drain before we reline it. We film every job, so you see exactly what we see.
We can reline a whole sewer or stormwater drain, or just patch a short section. You end up with a stronger drain that flows better. Relined drains keep tree roots out, don’t leak, are stronger than the old pipe and are guaranteed for life.
