Blockages don’t wait – and neither do we. Serving both the Gold Coast and Logan regions 24/7, our local blockage specialists are always on call to respond quickly. We understand the unique drainage challenges of our area and can provide swift, reliable service when you need it most.
Whether you’re a homeowner dealing with a clogged sink or a business facing a major stormwater drain blockage, our tailored approach covers residential, commercial, and industrial needs. We not only remove the blockage but also inspect your system to identify and address the underlying cause, preventing future issues.
A blocked sewer drain can have severe consequences – from unpleasant back-ups to costly property damage. At Charlie The Plumber, we know that when sewer drains become blocked, toilets and internal drainage systems quickly begin to back up. Our blockage specialists act fast to minimize the risk of waste overflowing into your home.
We start by deploying our advanced high-pressure drain cleaning equipment, which features five finely tuned water jets that deliver nearly 32 litres per minute at pressures of approximately 5000 psi. This powerful burst of water is engineered to dislodge stubborn blockages caused by accumulated debris, foreign objects, or invasive tree roots.
Once the blockage is cleared, we perform a comprehensive CCTV inspection of your drainage system. This step not only confirms that the blockage has been successfully removed but also helps us identify any hidden issues – such as cracks or deteriorated pipes – that could lead to future problems.
Unlike sewer drains, stormwater drains are continuously subjected to rainfall, which can exacerbate any blockage and quickly lead to flooding. A blocked stormwater drain, especially when connected to gutters and downpipes, can result in water overflowing onto your property – causing extensive damage and disruption.
Our experienced technicians are well-versed in the unique challenges of stormwater drainage. Using precision locating equipment and high-pressure water jets, we effectively clear out blockages caused by debris build-up, tree roots, or even accidental flushing of unsuitable items. Once the blockage is removed, we conduct a thorough CCTV inspection to ensure that your stormwater system is functioning optimally and to advise on any maintenance work that might prevent recurrence.
In addition to emergency clearing, we offer routine inspections to help detect and address potential issues before they escalate. This proactive approach not only protects your property but also extends the life of your drainage infrastructure.
In both our sewer and stormwater drain services, we combine advanced technology with a deep understanding of local drainage challenges. Our goal is to restore your drainage system quickly and reliably while preventing future blockages through detailed inspections and expert advice.
Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the glowing reviews we receive from our community.
We understand that a blocked drain can be confusing and stressful. Here are some common questions we receive about our blocked drain services, along with detailed answers to help you understand our process and expertise.
Blocked drains can result from various issues. Common causes include the accidental flushing of foreign objects like children’s toys or sanitary products, accumulation of grease and debris, and the invasion of tree roots into the drainage system. In some cases, a broken or deteriorating drain pipe can also lead to blockages, allowing debris to accumulate over time.
Our process starts with a detailed assessment using modern CCTV drain cameras, which allows us to pinpoint the exact location and nature of the blockage. We then use high-pressure water jets—delivering water at nearly 5000 psi—to forcefully dislodge and clear the obstruction. Once the blockage is removed, we inspect the internal condition of the drain to ensure no further issues remain and to recommend any necessary repairs or maintenance.
Signs of a blocked drain include slow drainage from sinks or showers, gurgling noises in the pipes, and toilets that aren’t flushing properly. In some cases, you might also notice unpleasant odours or even visible water back-ups. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s best to have a professional inspect your system as soon as possible.
