Blocked Drain Types
The Jetter which is a high water pressure machine for blocked drainage pipes. The high pressure water is like a water blaster designed for tree roots and drain blockages. The water cuts the blocked and helps wash it down the drain.
There are two types of blockages. One type is what we call a local drain blockage, which is a drain blockage near to the toilet “S” bend and or the sink or basin “S” bend. The second type is a blocked in the main or larger external drain pipe. Different equipment is needed for these two different options. Local blockages can be sorted out with drain hand tools where as the larger drains need the petrol powered Jetter water drain machine or the Electric Eel drain machine. Naturally the Drain Jetter costs more then the hand tools. It is always more expensive for the main drain pipe blockage to be unblocked as larger more expensive equipment is needed to remove blockages in the larger drainage system.

Drain Inspection Camera for Investigating Blocked Drain Pipes
Drain Inspection Equipment
A Drain Camera Inspection is available if you wish and is advisable if you have your drain unblocked regularly or you are concerned that your drainage system is getting worse. Clearing a blocked drain pipe is like a hair cut. The roots will if not removed grow back into the drain system. This is something that cannot be avoided without repairing the sewer or storm water drain pipe. At this stage you have the option of viewing the condition of the drainage pipes and assess whether or not it is best to have that section of drainage removed or repaired so the drain blockage does not return and cost you further inconvenience and cost on a regular bases.
Drain Inspection Benefits
Drain Camera Location Time Frame
To locate the drain damage with the camera after the drainage system has been cleared takes about 45min- 1hour & 15min on average. You can not see the damaged drain section if the drain is still blocked due to it being fill of dirty water. In the event that the drain can not be unblocked it is possible though to put the camera down a blocked drain to use only the location signal coming from the camera lens itself to isolate where the camera has stopped in the full blocked drain. This of course is no guarantee that the camera has stopped at the crack/broken drain pipe as nothing is visible due to the dirty water. This may be a possible option on where to start digging.
