Slow drain?
Find out what’s stopping it.

A sink that takes ages to empty or a shower that leaves water around your feet can interrupt the whole day. If the problem returns after clearing, the cause may be further along the pipe.

Jetty Plumbing investigates and clears blocked drains for Coffs Harbour homes and businesses. Our team uses drain clearing equipment and CCTV inspections to locate obstructions and check the condition of the line.

Blocked toilets, sewer lines and stormwater drains need different checks. Tell us which fixtures are affected, when the problem started and whether water is overflowing. Call for active overflows rather than waiting for a callback.

Locate the blockage / choose the method

Clear the drain.
Check the cause.

Grease, hair, soap residue and foreign objects can restrict water flow. Roots can enter damaged joints, while a broken or displaced pipe can cause repeated blockages. The symptoms alone do not tell us which problem you have.

We assess access and choose a clearing method suited to the affected drain. High-pressure water jetting can remove obstructions from suitable lines. A CCTV inspection can help identify damage or remaining roots when further investigation is needed.

If the blockage involves wastewater from several fixtures, our sewer repair service can help address the wider line. For one affected toilet, see blocked toilet repairs.

Discuss your blocked drain
Recurring problems / lasting repairs

Keeps blocking?
Look beyond the surface.

A drain that flows again may still have an underlying defect. Tell us how often it blocks, which fixtures are affected and whether previous work found roots or pipe damage. Those details help guide the inspection.

When damaged pipework is involved, we explain the repair options and access needed. Where excavation is required, we discuss the affected area before work starts.

Water collecting outside during rain may involve a separate stormwater issue. Ask about drainage solutions or stormwater drainage for your property.

FAQs

Your blocked drains questions, answered.

What are the signs of a blocked drain?

Slow drainage, gurgling and water rising through another fixture can indicate a blockage. Smells and outdoor overflows also need investigation. Tell us whether one fixture or several are affected.

What causes drains to block?

Common causes include grease, hair, soap residue, wipes and other objects. Roots, damaged joints and displaced pipes can also restrict flow. Outdoor drains may collect leaves and silt.

Can I try a plunger first?

For a minor local blockage, a plunger may help if there is no overflow or contamination. Stop if water rises or backs up elsewhere. Avoid adding chemicals and tell the plumber if you have already used a product.

Do you use CCTV drain cameras?

Yes. Jetty Plumbing uses CCTV equipment to inspect accessible drainage lines. A camera can help locate a blockage or identify pipe damage, depending on access and conditions inside the line.

Will jetting fix a broken pipe?

Jetting clears suitable obstructions; it does not repair a cracked, collapsed or displaced pipe. If inspection identifies damage, we explain the repair options separately.

How much will the repair cost?

Access, the location of the problem and the work required affect the price. A simple local blockage differs from damaged underground pipework. We explain the proposed work and discuss the price before proceeding.

Is a blocked drain the same as a sewer problem?

A blockage can affect one fixture or a shared wastewater line. Several affected fixtures or an overflowing gully may indicate a wider problem. Stormwater drainage is a separate system and needs its own assessment.

Which areas do you service?

We work across Coffs Harbour and the Coffs Coast, including Sawtell, Toormina and Woolgoolga. Tell us your suburb and address when you call so we can confirm availability.
