we clear your drain in 3 steps
Step 1 - Source and locate the problem
There are multiple reasons for blocked drains in your home or business which usually depends on where in the property you have the drainage issue. The most common causes of drain blockages are often:
- Tree Roots
- Hair build up
- Grease build up in the drain
- Plants and tree roots entering the drain pipe
- Toiletries being flushed down toilets
- Pipe breakages
Before fixing the blocked drain, it’s important to diagnose exactly what could be causing the issues. We use high-tech CCTV drain cameras to determine the issue. Using CCTV Cameras to conduct drain inspections, we get an understanding of what is causing the drain blockage and can come up with the best strategy for drain unblocking.
Step 2 - clearing the drain
Once the root of the drainage problem is discovered, We focus on unblocking and clearing the drain.
The most effective way to release drain or sink blockages is by using a drain jetter. The high pressure hydro jetting equipment allows us to break up and blast out a drain blockage using high pressure and high-velocity water. It’s certainly a mess-free way to clear the blocked drain.
Our advanced and proven Hydro jetting technology includes Equipment used for high-pressure drain cleaning & allow us to effectively repair the pipeline.
With the blockage gone, the drain cameras are back in action. I will then conduct a drain inspection on the pipe that was blocked or damaged. We record a clear view and assessment of the drain inspection. With the removal of the drain blockage, we’ll be able to see if it’s damaged the pipes in any way, debris or more serious issues.
Step 3 - repair any damage cause by the blockage
If we find the pipes are damaged while unblocking your drains, don’t panic. Once we have determined the area that is damaged, we are able to efficiently repair this damage for you, preventing the same issue arsing in the future.

Drain Cleaning & Repairs
Strong odours, gurgling noises, and standing water are usually indications of a clogged drain. It is common for home owners to use chemical substances to try to eliminate the blockage. Unfortunately, this will cause the pipes to corrode over time. The problem reoccurs frequently, leading to frustration and inconvenience. The best solution is to hire a plumber for a professional drain cleaning. The plumbing system will be inspected and any and all blockages will be removed. Drains are cleaned thoroughly to ensure proper working order. GTQ Plumbing services residential toilets, sinks, showers, basins, baths, gullies, main drains, rainwater drains, and sewer systems.
camera inspection
At GTQ Plumbing, we use state-of-the-art camera technology to asses a clogged drain. A CCTV camera is fed into the pipe. The camera is illuminated and the exact location and depth can be monitored at all times. This is essential in determining the cause of the clog, without the need for extensive excavation. The inspection of the problem area can be recorded for further investigation.
water jetting
When a clog is a long distance from the drain, water jetting may be the most effective way to clear the clog.This is especially effective against tree roots they may have caused the blockage through a damage pipeline. A flexible hose with an attached high pressure cleaning nozzle is fed into the drain. The hose propels downwards as high pressure water jets blast through the pipe. This gets rid of any blockage in front of it. The high pressure creates friction, dissolving all fats and grease in the drain. This method works well on hard to reach areas with limited access. It is often used indoors, as there is no disruption or mess involved. Water Jetting is a fast and cost-effective way to eliminate clogs.
