Blocked Drains Kallaroo

CCTV Drain Camera Inspections

Before any major work begins, our technicians use advanced CCTV technology to show you exactly what’s happening inside your pipes. This eliminates guesswork and provides peace of mind by revealing:

• The exact location and extent of root invasion
• Pipe cracks, misalignments, or collapses
• Build-up of debris or foreign objects
• The overall condition of your drainage system

High-Pressure Water Jetting and Long-Term Repairs

Our professional-grade water jetters blast through even the toughest root masses and debris build-up. Unlike basic drain snakes that only poke holes through blockages, our equipment thoroughly cleans pipe walls, restoring full flow capacity.

Why Kallaroo Homes Face Unique Drainage Challenges

Properties throughout Kallaroo, particularly those near Mullaloo Drive and surrounding streets, sit on the Spearwood Dune System’s sandy soil. This geological feature causes original earthenware pipes to shift and crack over time, creating perfect entry points for invasive tree roots. The combination of:

• 40+ year old earthenware drainage systems
• Aggressive Tuart and Peppermint tree root systems
• Sandy soil that shifts with seasonal moisture changes
• Perth’s long dry summers followed by heavy winter downpours

These factors create a perfect storm for recurring drainage problems that require expert local knowledge to solve permanently.

Pipe Deterioration and Ground Movement

Original 1970s-era earthenware pipes weren’t designed to last forever. Combined with our sandy soil’s natural movement, these pipes develop cracks, misalignments, and collapsed sections that trap debris and create persistent blockages.

Storm Water Overload

When Perth’s first winter storms hit, drainage systems already compromised by roots and debris can’t cope with the sudden influx of water. This leads to backyard flooding, sewage overflow, and potential damage to your property’s foundations.
