A real person answers, day or night
The blocked drain that keeps coming back has a reason
Call (02) 9072 0502 and describe what is slow or backing up, because a drain that blocks over and over is rarely just what went down it, and clearing the cause beats plunging the symptom.
Why drains block differently in a suburb of stacked units
Shared stacks, ground-floor grief
Sand where the joints have gone
How it works
How we clear a blocked drain properly
Clearing a drain properly means lifting the blockage and then proving the pipe underneath is sound, so here is what we tackle on the low, sandy streets here, each priced beforehand:
- 01
Kitchen and laundry
Grease, food scraps and detergent scum coating a kitchen or laundry line get scoured back to bare pipe with a high-pressure jetter, not merely punched through, so the bore runs full instead of reglazing with fat and closing within weeks.
- 02
Bathroom drains
Hair, soap and the fine grit that rides in off sandy ground bind into the plug slowing a shower, basin or floor waste, and a jet rod clears the trap and branch rather than leaving a core water squeezes past.
- 03
Yard and gully drains
Grit, garden soil and windblown sand that drift across these flat blocks build up in outside gullies and rainheads until they overflow, so we flush the pit and the line beneath back to full flow before the next big storm.
- 04
Jetting and camera
Rather than guess, we cut the blockage out with water pressure then send a camera through the cleared line, showing you whether the pipe behind it is sound or cracked and quietly feeding the next blockage from below the surface.

Common blocked drain problems on sandy ground
Sand in the joints
A hairline crack under the water line lets the surrounding sand seep in grain by grain, so the pipe silts from the bottom up and runs slow long before it blocks entirely.
Grease down the stack
Fat poured warm down a kitchen sink sets hard on the cold pipe wall further down the shared stack, layering up over months until the bore closes and one unit's boiling water cannot shift it.
Roots from the verge
Street-tree and garden roots chase the moisture seeping from a perished joint, threading into the pipe and catching everything that passes, so the drain clears with a jet then blocks again until those joints are sealed.
Why a blocked drain is worth clearing properly
Left to worsen, a slow drain rarely just inconveniences you, and on stacked, low ground the trouble travels further than the fixture in front of you, so here is why clearing the cause pays off:
Stop the backup reaching a neighbour
Catch the broken pipe early
Keep the smell and the pests out
How it works
How clearing a blocked drain works, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Jet, clear and prove it
Once the price is agreed, we feed a high-pressure jetter down the line to cut the blockage apart, flush the grease and grit to the main, then run a camera back so you can watch it running clear.

Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Mascot
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Mascot works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
Blocked drains get cleared the same careful way for our neighbours too, whether it is a unit in Wolli Creek, a semi in Rosebery, a house out in Eastlakes, a home down in Botany or a cottage across in Tempe.
Good questions, straight answers
Blocked drain questions Mascot locals ask
Why does my kitchen drain keep blocking in an apartment?
Grease and food solids build up in the shared vertical stack that serves the units above and below yours, so a clog low in the line backs up into the lowest kitchen first.
Can you clear a blocked drain without digging up the yard?
Almost always, because a high-pressure water jetter cuts through the blockage from an existing access point and a camera confirms the clearance, so no excavation is needed at all.
Why do drains here silt up with sand?
Fine sand off the Botany sand beds washes into any cracked or open joint below the water table, gradually narrowing the pipe until the flow slows and the line finally blocks.
Is a blocked drain covered by my strata or by me?
A clog inside your own unit's branch is usually yours, while a blockage in the shared stack or the common-property line is the building's, and a camera run shows plainly which it is.
Will drain cleaner from the supermarket fix a blocked drain?
It may shift a light clog briefly, but a drain that keeps blocking has grease, roots or a broken pipe underneath that caustic liquid cannot reach, so the trouble simply returns.
How fast can you clear a blocked drain?
Most household blockages clear on a single visit because the van already carries the jetter and camera, so the line is running and proven clear before your plumber leaves.
