Blocked Sewer Drain, Geelong
Drainkleen Doctor’s fully qualified and accredited specialists have both the skills and equipment to clear your blocked sewer drain. We can use the latest mechanical drain cleaner and domestic high pressure water jetters to clear blockages affecting your household shower, laundry or kitchen. We can also attend to blockages at your commercial or industrial facility.
In order to fix a blocked drain, you first need to find the blockage. That takes both a great deal of experience and highly specialised equipment.
Our specialists carry the latest colour drain cameras that help us find blockages in anything from 50mm to 300mm pipes and drains. We also carry DVD recorders with audio and high resolution screens so that we can pinpoint even the least obvious blockage.
To clear blockages, we use a combination of mechanical drain cleaners and high pressure water jetting. This allows us to remove everything from major roots and foreign objects to build-ups of fat and silt. You can read more about our tools of the trade on the equipment page.
Some of the signs of a blocked sewer are a ‘glugging’ sound in drains, external grates overflowing near your bathroom, kitchen or laundry when using water, or maybe what you want to go down just doesn’t.
For domestic jobs we would normally use the mechanical drain cleaner, or domestic high pressure water jet, depending on the type of blockage and situation. But rest assured we have the equipment to get you up and going and get the job done.
For bigger drains we would bring out the big gun – our US Jetter 4018 commercial high pressure jetter unit.
Most importantly, we can attend to your drain problems fast. We even have a same day service for emergency repairs.
