Blocked Drains Perth

A blocked drain doesn't wait for a convenient time. The shower's filling up, the toilet won't flush, or there's a smell in the backyard that wasn't there yesterday. Give us a call, we'll fix it no probs.

No Probs Plumbing has cleared more than 3,500 blocked drains and sewers across Perth since 2017, from Two Rocks down to Mandurah and out to the foothills. Our blocked drain plumbers carry a CCTV drain camera and a 5000 PSI hydro jetter in the van, so the same visit that finds your blockage clears it.

Blocked Drain Services for Every Drain in the House

Whatever's blocked, we've cleared thousands of them. Our blocked drain services cover:

  • Blocked toilets. If the loo won't flush or it's threatening to overflow, you need a blocked toilet plumber today, not Thursday. Toilets are the most common blockage we clear.
  • Blocked sewer lines. A blocked sewer backs up every drain in the house at once, and usually announces itself through the lowest gully in the yard. We clear the line, then show you on camera why it blocked.
  • Blocked kitchen sinks and laundry drains. Fat, food scraps and lint. Satisfying to jet, gone in one visit.
  • Blocked showers, baths and basins. Hair and soap build-up, cleared properly rather than pushed further down.
  • Blocked stormwater drains. Sand, leaves and roots. Perth's winter storms find every lazy soakwell; we get the water moving before it finds your walls.

Signs You've Got a Blocked Drain

Drains rarely block without warning. Call a blocked drain plumber early and it's a small job.

Watch for These Warning Signs

Water draining slower than it used to (the earliest and most ignored sign)

Gurgling from the toilet or floor waste when the washing machine empties

Smells from drains, gullies or the yard

The toilet water level rising or falling on its own

Wet patches or unusually green grass over the sewer line

Why Perth Properties Need Special Attention

Local factors that contribute to blockages include:

Aggressive tree root systems in established suburbs

Perth’s ageing infrastructure in older areas

Seasonal storms causing debris build-up

Gradual accumulation of grease, fat, and foreign objects

Don’t risk property damage. Call us immediately if you notice:

Sewage overflow or backup

Multiple blocked fixtures at once

Water damage to walls or floors

Persistent foul odours

Flooding in bathrooms or kitchens

They were the only service I found that came in within a couple of hours and accommodated my request with quality workmanship and friendly service and it was a great relief for me. Recommend these guys. Thank you.

I’ve now had No Probs Plumbing in to clear a kitchen drain, replace a hot water service, replace every ageing tap in the house and replace both toilet cisterns. Every single member of the No Probs team that I’ve met so far… perhaps 6 of the plumbing team alone… has been professional, friendly, and genuinely concerned for the outcome of the work to be perfect. I cannot recommend them more highly.

Called in No Probs plumbing for a blocked drain after complicated solutions offered by another plumber. Dillon discussed the issue, offered a simpler solution and organised his crew to execute the plan. Problem solved!

Just used Dillon’s company again today after a year. Excellent service by young Callum. Always found No Probls to be helpful, prompt and efficient. Fixed our blockage and were in and out in 40 minutes. Keep up the good work guys.

We had issues with a blocked drain over the xmas break so was worried we might not get a quick response but we were wrong. They called us pretty much straight back and within roughly 1hr they were at our house. The young man Jack was a really nice polite and professional person. He was happy for a chat and to explain some of the equipment he used. Unfortunately the blockage was on the mains sewer so couldn’t fix it but he rang the Water Corp and asked me to follow up with him if Water Corp didn’t attend within a couple of hours… Will definitely use them again!

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dealing with a blocked drain in my home. From the moment I contacted No Probs Plumbing, the team was professional, courteous, and incredibly responsive.

The scheduling process was seamless, and they were able to send one of their Plumbers Jack to my home within a few hours. When Jack arrived, he was not only punctual but also very knowledgeable. He took the time to assess the situation thoroughly and explained the potential causes of the blockage in a way that was easy to understand.

I was particularly impressed with his attention to detail and commitment to leaving my space clean and tidy after the job was completed.
Thank you Jack!!!

I used No Probs when my kids had kindly created a blockage in our toilet. Zac was so friendly and confidently sorted out the problem with as little fuss as possible. I felt like our toilet was in good hands. He also kindly answered my other questions for keeping it in good shape as we walked out the door.

How We Clear Blocked Drains (and Keep Them Clear)

Any plumber can plunge a drain. The difference is finding the cause, fixing it, and proving it's fixed. Here's how a No Probs drain job runs:

1. Drain Camera Inspection

A CCTV drain camera goes down the line and shows us exactly what we're dealing with: tree roots, a collapsed section, grease, or a toy someone swears they didn't flush. No guessing, no digging to have a look.

2. Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning

Our 5000 PSI water jetter scours the pipe wall clean. Hydro jetting doesn't just poke a hole through the blockage the way a cheap drain snake does; it removes it, roots and all.

3. Robotic Cutting for the Stubborn Stuff

For concrete-hard scale, set fat or thick root masses, the Dancutter DC Super Flex robotic cutter grinds the line back to clean pipe, all from the access point. Still no digging.

4. Fix the Cause, Then Prove It's Done

If the camera shows cracked or broken pipes, we give you options on the spot: trenchless pipe relining for a permanent no-dig drain pipe repair, RootX foam to keep roots out of joints, or an honest conversation about replacement if the pipe is past saving. Most damaged drains never need to be dug up. Every job ends with a final camera pass so you can see the clear line for yourself.

Give us a call on (08) 9315 5545 and we'll walk you through what your drain needs. It's a quick chat, and it's free.

Frequently Asked Questions About Blocked Drains

How much should it cost to unblock a drain in Perth?

Most blocked drains land between $290 and $1,000 including GST. A simple plunge or auger clear starts at $290, a clear plus a camera inspection to find the cause is around $450, and a hydro jetted, camera-checked sewer line typically runs around $750, passing $1,000 only when the line needs extra jetting time. You get the exact fixed price before we start. Beware of very cheap quotes: a $99 drain clear that skips the camera usually means the roots are back by Christmas.
