Blocked drains Tweed Heads

We specialise in unblocking drains across the Tweed Coast, Byron Bay, and Gold Coast areas.

We quickly unblock toilets, sinks, bathtubs, showers, sewer and stormwater drains, septic units and many other systems. Our expert plumbers use advanced tools like CCTV detection and high-pressure jetters to efficiently clear blockages caused by silt, debris, and root intrusion.

Emergency Blocked Drain Repairs

Blocked drains and burst pipes are urgent hazards that demand immediate attention.

If disaster strikes, call us right away. We provide 24-hour emergency plumbing services throughout the wider Tweed Heads area. Our team responds quickly to emergency blocked drains and repair calls, ensuring your home or business isn’t left without functioning plumbing.

We also conduct regular ‘hot-blasting’ for businesses that suffer from regular drain blockages, i.e. fast-food restaurants. Naturally, it can be difficult to clear all the build-up of grease in plumbing when you’re cooking all day, every day. To account for this, we schedule hot-blasting for local food businesses at regular intervals to ensure their operations aren’t held up by a pipe blockage.

Preventative Drain Maintenance

Noticed your drains are taking longer to clear or making unusual noises?

It might be time for preventative maintenance to avoid a plumbing emergency. Our qualified plumbers can inspect your drains, clear any blockages, and address any underlying drainage or leakage issues. While on-site, we can also check for other plumbing concerns, like leaking taps, providing you with complete peace of mind.

Blocked Toilets

A blocked toilet is a serious health hazard that requires immediate professional attention.

Our experienced plumbers are on call to quickly address and resolve blocked toilets in both residential and commercial properties across Tweed Heads and the surrounding areas. We not only unblock your toilet but also investigate and repair any underlying issues in your pipes and drains.

Blocked Sinks

Struggling with a blocked sink? Our qualified plumbers at Plumb-Jet & Gas-Jet can help.

We’ll assess your sink, identify the blockage, and carry out any necessary repairs to your basin or pipes. Equipped with specialist tools, we effectively remove even the most stubborn blockages without damaging your drainage system.

Blocked Bathtub/Shower Drains

Hair, soap and scale build-up are common causes of blocked bathroom drains.

If your bathtub or shower is draining slowly or emitting foul odours, it’s time for a professional cleaning. Plumb-Jet uses the latest equipment to remove build-up, restoring proper drainage and eliminating the risk of dirty water backing up.

Blocked Sewer Pipes

Blocked sewer pipes can lead to unpleasant smells and dirty water back-ups in your home.

Our plumbers use advanced CCTV and sonar pipe scanners to locate and clear blockages within your property’s sewer boundary. We offer fast response times and efficient clearing of sewer pipe blockages, so you can get back to your routine.

Blocked Stormwater Drains

A blocked stormwater drain is a serious issue that can cause flooding and damage to your property.

Designed to divert excess water away, a blocked drain can lead to water accumulation around your home. Our plumbers use specialist cameras and water jets to safely and effectively clear any blockages, protecting your property from water damage.

Blocked Downpipes

Downpipes that are clogged with leaves and garden debris can prevent water from draining properly from your gutters.

At Plumb-Jet, we unblock, repair, and replace downpipes and guttering to ensure water drains safely away from your property. Our service is quick, reliable, and carefully executed to avoid damage to your pipes and property.

FAQ’S

We touched on two of the most common signs above (loud noises and slow draining), but there are other things to look out for too, including an unpleasant odour, toilet levels increasing when you run a tap and sewage seeping from a drain or manhole.

The most important thing you can do to prevent your drains from becoming blocked is to monitor the waste that goes down your drain pipes on a regular basis. This includes harmful substances which end up going down your sink or shower and flushing inappropriate objects down the toilet. However, there are steps you can take to reduce the likelihood of a blocked drain, including installing drain guards, using a drain cleaner and conducting regular hot-blasting.

If you’re not careful about what goes into your drains, you could experience some unpleasant side effects, including foul-smelling water, damage to your electrical fittings and wiring, and leaking ceilings, roofs and walls.

We wouldn’t recommend that you try to unblock a drain without expert help, but this is at your own discretion. If you choose to attempt it yourself, bear in mind that it can be incredibly messy and time-consuming without the right equipment or experience. You may also find it difficult to remove the cover and even locate the blockage.

With our expert technicians and state-of-the-art equipment, we can unblock a drain within a matter of minutes. Depending on the severity of the blockage and its cause, the process may take slightly longer, but either way, we’ll be able to solve your drainage problems before you know it.
