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. You get backflow protection installed to keep sewage out of your home. And if you're in Glenroy or Melbourne's north-west, you get fast, local repairs when you need them.
Drainage problems are straightforward once the cause is known. You get a precise fix, done right the first time — no unnecessary damage, just results.

Blocked Drains
Water backing up into your shower, sink draining slowly, or foul smells from the drain? We locate blockages and clear them fast. Whether it's hair, grease, soap, or a collapsed pipe, we find it and fix it.
Backflow Prevention
Heavy rain can force sewage backwards into your home through drains. A backflow valve stops this. We install and test backflow prevention to protect your home during storms and keep sewage where it belongs.
CCTV Drain Inspections
Can't see what's blocking your drain? We use CCTV cameras to look inside pipes and spot blockages, root invasion, or breaks. Seeing the problem tells us exactly how to fix it and whether you need a repair or replacement.
What homeowners in Glenroy 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

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 in Glenroy
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.
In Glenroy and Melbourne's north-west, CCTV inspection has saved 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.
Backflow protection in Glenroy
Heavy rain and storms can overwhelm the sewage system. When the main line backs up, sewage flows backwards through your drains into your home. A backflow valve stops this. We install valves at the point where your home connects to the main sewer line. During backup events, the valve closes automatically and keeps sewage out of your home.
Backflow protection is especially important if you live in a low-lying area of Glenroy or if your garden has flooded before.
Drain repair and replacement
If CCTV shows a broken, collapsed, or heavily corroded drain, repair might not be enough. Sometimes replacement is the better choice. 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.
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.
If you've experienced sewage backup during heavy rain, or if you live in a low-lying area of Glenroy, backflow protection is a smart investment. Even if you haven't had problems yet, a valve is cheap insurance. Call us to discuss whether your home would benefit.
