Your Drainage Problems, Solved

A blocked drain backs up water into your home. A broken drain line lets tree roots invade your pipes or sewage escape into your yard. Backflow lets sewage flow backwards into your home during heavy rain. None of these are minor problems, but you don't have to live with them.

With CCTV camera inspection, you get a clear diagnosis before any work begins. No guesswork, no unnecessary digging. You get your blockage cleared with high-pressure water jets or the right plumbing equipment. We are based in Glenroy and service drainage jobs across all of Melbourne.

Drainage problems are straightforward once the cause is known. You get a precise fix, done right the first time — no unnecessary damage, just results.

What Melbourne homeowners are saying

  • Nagendra Chickmaglore Home Owner

    We initially thought this was just a simple blockage that we could fix ourselves, but the team at Elite Plumbing quickly showed us it was more than that. They took the time to properly investigate the issue, explained everything clearly, and walked us through what needed to be done without overcomplicating things. You could tell straight away they really knew what they were doing. What stood out the most was how easy they were to deal with — communication was smooth, they were responsive, and always followed up. No chasing, no confusion, just clear and honest updates. It's not often you come across a team that is both professional and genuinely easy to work with. Really appreciate their help and would highly recommend Elite Plumbing to anyone

  • Erin Anderson Home Owner

    Incredible and reliable service! I had an emergency situation with a blocked drain and overflowing sewage in my garden late afternoon on a 43 degree day. I found Kurt's details online, he arrived with all of his equipment within 30 minutes. Worked tirelessly in intense heat to identify the issue (which was actually impacting my neighbours house too, they didn't know because they were away!). Kurt made contact with relevant water and council services and used his years of training and experience to resolve the issue. Friendly, professional, no-nonsense service. 10/10 would recommend!

Drainage Solutions Across Melbourne

Diagnosing drain blockages with CCTV

You know your drain is blocked, but what's causing it? Hair, grease, tree roots, or a broken pipe? CCTV cameras let us look inside the pipe and see exactly what's wrong. Once we know the cause, we choose the right fix.

CCTV inspection has saved Melbourne homeowners thousands by pinpointing the real problem before they pay for repairs they don't need.

Clearing blocked drains quickly

Once we know what's blocking the drain, we clear it. High-pressure water jets blow out grease and soap buildup. Mechanical clearing removes hair, rags, and debris. For tree roots, we use grinding tools. The method depends on what we find.

Most blocked drains are cleared in under an hour. We test the drain after clearing to make sure water flows freely again.

Drain repair and relining

If CCTV shows a broken, collapsed, or heavily corroded drain, repair or relining is the next step. Pipe relining lets us restore the drain from the inside without excavating your yard in many cases. We'll discuss your options and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Whether we're patching a section or replacing the whole line, we do the job correctly and explain everything before we start.

Tree root removal

Tree roots are one of the most common causes of persistent blockages in Melbourne homes. Roots find their way into small pipe joints, then grow and expand until the pipe is fully blocked or cracked. We cut out roots, clear the line, and advise on whether the pipe needs further repair to prevent it happening again.

Asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A simple blockage cleared with a plunger or drain snake might be $150–$300. More complex clears using high-pressure water jets or requiring excavation can run $500–$1,500. CCTV inspection to diagnose the problem is typically $200–$350. We'll quote the exact cost after we've assessed the blockage.

  • Most blocked drains are cleared within a few hours of our arrival. Simple blockages can be done in 30 minutes. Complex blockages might take longer. We prioritize emergency drain blockages to get you back to normal as fast as possible.

  • CCTV means we send a tiny camera down your drain to see what's inside. We can spot blockages, tree roots, cracks, and collapsed pipes. Seeing the problem means we fix it right the first time, not guess and waste money on unnecessary work.

  • Recurring blockages are usually caused by tree roots growing back into the pipe, a collapsed or broken section that debris keeps catching on, or grease and fat buildup that hasn't been fully cleared. CCTV inspection shows us exactly what's going on so we can fix the root cause, not just the symptom.
