Drain Services in Everton Hills
Each drain task we handle falls within one of the six drain services on this site:
Blocked toilets
A loo that fills to the brim or won't flush down is cleared fast, and we find the cause before we go.
Blocked sewers
Sewage smells or gurgling vents point to the main line, which we clear from the property boundary to the connection.
Blocked stormwater
Downpipes and stormwater pits that overflow in heavy rain get traced and cleared before the next storm hits.
Drain cleaning
Sinks, showers and floor wastes in kitchen, bathroom and laundry, cleared using an electric eel or jet blasting.
CCTV drain inspection
A camera run through the pipe shows exactly what is down there, from tree roots to cracked joints.
Drain repairs
We fix broken, cracked, root-damaged or collapsed pipes by dig-and-replace or relining, whichever suits the line.
What Causes Blocked Drains in Everton Hills
Earthenware pipes from the first estates
Houses built in the 1965 and 1975 estate waves went in while earthenware house drains were still the norm, and those spigot joints have shifted or cracked over the decades, letting silt and fine roots into the line.
Roots from the creek lines
The forest edge and the creek reserves keep big trees close to older backyard drains, and roots track the moisture sitting in the old trenches.
Rock close under the slopes
Bunya Phyllite sits close beneath the hillsides, so drains went in on thin, stony fill that settles unevenly and cracks the joints above it.
A fall that changes abruptly
On these hills the drop between house, boundary and street connection shifts sharply, so debris that races down the steep section can settle in the first flat run.
Drain Backing Up Right Now
Drain backing up right now? Three quick checks:
- Sewage or dirty water coming up through a shower, floor waste or outside gully: stop using taps, toilets and the washing machine, keep children and pets clear, and call (07) 3523 7146.
- Every drain in the house is slow at once: the blockage is probably in the main line, so hold off flushing and call (07) 3523 7146 so the plumber can find where it sits.
- Only one sink or shower is slow: stop pouring anything down it and book a visit, because one slow drain on its own is rarely urgent.
Signs a Drain Is Blocking
Gurgling from the toilet or floor waste when the washing machine drains
air is trapped by a partial blockage somewhere down the shared line.
Water collecting at the gully outside once the shower's been running
the line downstream of that gully is restricted and backing up.
The lawn dipping or staying greener in one strip above the drain run
a cracked joint below is leaking water into the soil.
Slow drainage in several fixtures at once
the main line, not a single fixture trap, is where the problem sits.
How the Price Is Worked Out
Access to the drain
an inspection point near the surface is quicker to work through than one buried under a deck or a concrete path on a hill block.
Depth and pipe material
deep lines and old earthenware take longer to clear and to check than shallow modern PVC.
What's actually in the pipe
a lump of grease clears in one pass, while a line full of tree roots takes longer and may need a camera to see the damage.
Whether a camera inspection is needed
if the blockage keeps coming back, a CCTV run shows whether the pipe needs fixing.
One thing we'll always tell you straight: a blockage in Unitywater's sewer main out in the street is the water authority's job, not ours, and we'll point you to them rather than take it on.
Storms, Creeks and Hill Blocks
The ground here is only half the story. Two creek lines and the storm season between them do the rest.
Creek lines and flow paths
Council flood mapping places medium and high risk zones along Cabbage Tree Creek as it crosses the suburb eastward, and along Kedron Brook at the southern edge, with overland flow paths threading across the slopes between them.
Storm season load
The suburb averages 1048mm of rain a year, and the hill streets shed it fast toward those creeks, putting stormwater pits and downpipes under real load from November to March.
Why it matters
A stormwater line that copes in a drizzle can back up in a downpour, so we treat a pooling pit as a job worth doing before the next cell arrives, not after.

Blocked Drain Questions
Call (07) 3523 7146What makes one drain job cost more than another?
How easy the inspection point is to reach, how far down the line runs, the material the pipe is made from, what actually clogged it and whether the camera has to come out all shape the quote you approve in advance.
Can you get here the same day?
Call in the morning and we can usually be there the same day, though how many jobs are already booked and how the northside traffic is running both play a part, so we never promise it outright.
Which pipe is mine and which belongs to Unitywater?
Everything inside your boundary up to the point of connection is yours to maintain, while the sewer main under the street is Unitywater's, and a blockage in their line is theirs to clear.
What should never go down the toilet?
Bin the wet wipes, paper towels, cotton buds, sanitary items and cooking fats, because they don't break down and each one can catch on a shifted joint and begin a blockage.
How do you find what is causing the blockage?
Once the line is running again, a CCTV camera pass shows the inside of the pipe, telling us roots, silt or a cracked joint, and whether the drain itself needs repairing.
