Drain blocked with mud?
Blocked Drains
Your home’s outside drains serve an extremely important purpose – ensuring water moves away from your property in the case of heavy rainfall. This prevents any damage or flooding occurring, and protects your home and your neighbourhood.
These outdoor drains often have significant amounts of debris going down the pipes which can eventually clog up and prevent water flowing into the sewers. The most common cause of a blocked outdoor drain is the build-up of organic matter, meaning outdoor drains blocked with mud, leaves, sticks or foreign objects.
If you suspect your outdoor drain is clogged with mud, it is essential for the safety of your home, family and neighbourhood that the problem is dealt with swiftly and professionally.
Mud in drain pipes?
To identify whether there is mud in your drain, pay attention to whether there are pools of water appearing around your house or yard after rain. If there is, it’s likely that your outdoor storm drain is blocked by debris, often mud, meaning the excess rainwater is unable to drain away from your home.
If left untreated, the blocked outdoor drain can overflow, resulting in sewerage or other debris congregating outside your home.
If the rainwater is unable to move down the drain, the water will become stagnant and attract pests, or cause flooding depending on the severity of the storm.
Fix your drain
Once the outside drain becomes blocked with mud, it’s unlikely to unclog on its own. The situation is likely to worsen over time as additional debris attaches to the mud and forms a bigger and more difficult blockage. The longer the drain is left clogged the more costly the excavation will become, so if you think your outside drain is blocked with mud, it’s time to call the professionals.
DrainPro plumbers are professional drainage technicians with extensive experience removing mud in drains and clearing the debris that is clogging the rainwater drains. The process involves Drainpro technicians using CCTV camera technology to locate the source blockage caused by the mud and then use high pressure hydro jets to dislodge hard-to-access blockages.

TESTIMONIALS
we are very happy with a job well done by Nick! With a fixed price, i knew exactly what it was going to cost me before he arrived. He assessed the problem quickly then dropped a camera in the drain and explained everything to us as he worked! We could see with our own eyes that the drains were free of roots and squeeky clean by the time he had finished! Thank you Nick for a job well done!

Wouldn't call anyone else! Spoke with Jim on the phone, he was easy to talk to, honest and knew what he was talking about. Nick was here on time and did his work with pride and care. He explained everything as the work was done and had my problem solved in no time at all. He was even able to check out some other issues and help to fix them as well. I have no doubt that if any problems came up during the work, Drainpro would have the tools and experience to get the job done right the first time for a fair price!
Great company, Great people & Great service!

I highly recommend Drainpro. A week ago Jim from Drainpro attended to my drain blockage issue. He took the time to diagnose the problem (due to tree roots), fixed the problem and gave me great advice on how to manage my drains instead of lining it or digging it out and replacing which are very time consuming, costly and not to mention not suitable recommendation for my drains which are still in a reasonably good condition. He took the time also to call and logged a job with my water authority to ensure that they come out to also clear the council drain of roots which is the main cause of the blockage. All this done at a very reasonable price. I have used other plumbers before but Jim from Drainpro is by far the best I have encountered. Jim is very passionate about his work, he is prompt, professional and friendly. I will definitely use him again for my drains issue in the future. Keep up the good work!

Discussed problem with Jim on phone. Very rapid service. The blocked drain proved to be quite difficult. Nick was more than equal to the task and remained cheerful throughout. The result is excellent. I can happily recommend Drain Pro.

Nick performed an excellent job on our blocked sewer line. He was very friendly and courteous! The flat rate may seem pricey compared to other plumbers, but after seeing Nick at work and how thorough he was I think it was a fair price. Traddies like Nick are very rare these days! Thank you!
