Blocked Toilets
A toilet that fills high, drains slow or overflows needs clearing before it backs into the bathroom. We clear the pan and the sewer line behind it, then show you what caused it.

Drain Services for Eatons Hill Homes
Whatever is going wrong with your drains, the full service list is on our drain services page:
Blocked Sewer
Gurgling fixtures, sewage smells or dirty water backing up in the shower point to a blocked sewer line. We clear it, then look at whether roots or a broken pipe will bring the problem back.
Blocked Stormwater
Downpipes overflowing, yard drains pooling and water lying against the slab are stormwater problems. We clear the lines and the yard gullies so run-off has somewhere to go.
Drain Cleaning
Slow kitchen, bathroom and laundry sinks, shower drains and floor wastes get a proper clean with an electric eel or jet blasting, cutting through grease and hair instead of pushing it along.
CCTV Drain Inspection
When a drain keeps blocking, a camera inspection shows the exact cause and location. You see what is down there before deciding on any repair.
Drain Repairs
Broken, cracked, root-damaged or collapsed pipes get dug up and replaced, or relined where that suits. We talk through both options so you can choose with the full picture.

What Causes Blocked Drains in Eatons Hill
Storm flow off the river flats
The flood hazard mapping hugs the South Pine River and its creek arms, so homes along Bunya Crossing Road, Rivergum Drive and Confluence Court cop storm flow that can drown yard drains whenever the river is up.
Run-off down the western slopes
The ground out west is steep enough that Council flags it for landslide hazard. Run-off tears down those hard falls faster than the gully drains at the bottom can cope, and street debris goes along for the ride.
Eucalypt roots from the bush corridors
Between the estates run bush corridors and koala offset areas, and eucalypt roots off those corridors find house drains and absorption trenches on the lots alongside.
Wet-season loading
With around 1069 mm of rain a year on average and a storm-heavy wet season, every one of those three problems gets its worst test in the same few months.
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) 3522 5633.
- Every drain in the house is slow at once: the blockage is probably in the main line, so hold off flushing and call (07) 3522 5633 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.
Warning Signs of a Blockage
Catching a blockage early usually means a simple clear instead of a repair. Four signs worth a phone call:
Gurgling from the toilet or floor waste
air squeezing past a partial blockage, often roots or a sagging section of pipe.
The shower filling when the washing machine drains
two fixtures fighting over one blocked sewer line.
Toilet filling higher than normal before it drops away
the pan or the line just past it is partly blocked.
Yard drains or gullies overflowing in rain
stormwater lines blocked with silt, leaves or debris from the slope above.
What Drives the Price
Every job gets its own quote, and the work waits until you have approved it. What shapes the figure:
Access to the pipe
, and how far down it sits under the ground.
The pipe's material and condition
, since older pipes can need more careful handling.
What actually caused the blockage
, from a simple build-up to roots or a collapsed section.
Whether a camera inspection is needed
to pin down a repeat or hidden problem.
When we're not the right call: a blockage in the water authority's main is Unitywater's job, not yours or ours, and we will tell you straight away if that is where it sits.
Old Pipes and Septic Systems
The old hill estates
The original hill estate around Olympus Court, Minerva Court and Pegasus Avenue still runs on the old asbestos-cement and clay mains that show up in Unitywater's public mapping. Those are the pipe types roots crack and joints open.
The acreage west
Only the denser eastern estates sit inside Unitywater's sewer connection area. The rural-residential lots across the middle and west treat their wastewater on site, and absorption trenches near bush corridors are easy marks for eucalypt roots.
Whether your place is on the old hill estates or an acreage block out Drapers Road way, the pipe stock and the ground it sits in decide how a blockage behaves. We work with both, every week.

Questions About Blocked Drains
Call (07) 3522 5633What drives the price of unblocking a drain?
Access to the pipe, how far down it sits, what it is made from, what caused the blockage and whether a camera inspection is needed each feed into the fixed price you agree before work starts.
Can you usually get to a blocked drain the same day?
Same-day where we can: ring in the morning and we can usually have a plumber there that day, though some jobs need parts or a second visit, so we never promise it outright.
Who owns which drain pipe in Eatons Hill?
The pipe from your house to the boundary is yours to maintain, and the sewer main beyond it belongs to Unitywater, so a blockage in their main is their job to clear.
What should never go down the toilet or drain?
Wet wipes, paper towel, sanitary items, cotton buds, hair clumps and cooking grease should all go in the bin, because none of them break down and each one builds a blockage.
How do you find what is causing the blockage?
We clear the line first, then use a CCTV drain inspection to show exactly where the problem sits, whether it is roots, a collapsed section or a build-up that will return.
How do I book a plumber for a blocked drain?
Ring (07) 3522 5633, describe which fixtures are slow or overflowing, and we will line up a plumber for your drain. Same-day where we can.
