Common questions

Your Questions, Answered

How fast can you get here?

We guarantee on-site in 30 minutes for a genuine blocked drain call-out in Narrabeen. Ring (02) 9134 9059 and we'll confirm timing straight away.

Are you really open 24/7?

Yes. A licensed plumber answers the phone every hour of every day, including weekends and public holidays. Not an answering machine, not a script.

Do you work weekends and public holidays?

Every weekend and every public holiday, same as any other day. A blocked drain doesn't wait for Monday, and neither do we.

What happens after I call?

You talk through the problem with a licensed plumber, we dispatch a van, and you approve the price before any work starts. No surprises on the invoice, and nothing happens until you say go.

Is the quote really free?

Yes. We inspect, diagnose and quote at no charge, and you decide before anything happens. No call-out fee either way.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. $0 call-out fee, every visit, whether we clear the drain or just take a look. Free quotes are part of the same promise.

How does the 10% seniors discount work?

Tell us at booking and eligible seniors get 10% off the job. That discount is already folded into the price you sign off on-site, nothing extra to claim afterwards.

Do prices change once you start?

No. The price we quote is the price you pay. No exceptions, even if the job under the ground turns out trickier than expected. That risk sits with us, not you.

Do you know Narrabeen's pipe stock?

Well. Established blocks near the lagoon and beach still run plenty of old clay and earthenware drain joints from the mid-century build-out. Mature street trees find their way into them, and a camera down the line usually confirms it fast.

What suburbs do you service?

Narrabeen and the surrounding Northern Beaches, including [Collaroy](/blocked-drains-collaroy/), [Cromer](/blocked-drains-cromer/), [Dee Why](/blocked-drains-dee-why/), [Beacon Hill](/blocked-drains-beacon-hill/) and [Narraweena](/blocked-drains-narraweena/).

Do tree roots really get into pipes here?

Regularly. Mature trees along the streets and lagoon foreshore send fine roots into any crack or loose joint in older drain lines. The blockage builds slowly until it doesn't.

Why do Narrabeen's older drains keep blocking?

Age and ground conditions both play a part. Older clay joints crack over time. The high water table on the sandy lagoon and beach flats pushes groundwater into those gaps, adding to the load. A CCTV camera usually shows us exactly where.

Do wipes really block drains?

Yes, "flushable" is mostly marketing. Wipes stay intact long after toilet paper has broken apart. They snag on rough joints in older Narrabeen pipework, and the blockage builds from there.

Can I clear a blocked drain myself?

A plunger on a simple sink or toilet blockage is usually fine. Store-bought chemicals and a hired-in eel are the risky part, especially on the brittle old clay runs common around Narrabeen. NSW law reserves proper drainage repairs for a licensed plumber, so call us first if you're not sure.

What warranty do I get?

A lifetime labour warranty on every drain we clear. If it's not right, we come back. No questions, no cost to you.

What is an overflow relief gully and why does it matter?

It's the low-set fitting in your yard designed to overflow safely outside if the sewer backs up, rather than inside your home. A blocked or damaged one turns a simple fault into a real mess, and it's usually the first thing worth checking on an older Narrabeen block.
