Kitchen Sink Drains
Grease and food scraps settle in kitchen branch lines until water barely moves, and a full clear strips the build-up off the walls so the sink empties fast again.

What Drain Cleaning Covers
Drain cleaning is the routine end of the trade: clearing fixture drains and outdoor gullies so water moves the way it should. It differs from a CCTV drain inspection, which finds a fault, and from drain repairs, which fixes one. Every service sits under the one roof on the drain services page.
Why Nundah Drains Need It
Apartment plumbing works hard
Six in ten dwellings here were units at the last census, and shared fixture drains in the post-2008 buildings collect soap and hair at a rate a detached house never matches.
Low ground collects silt
The flats along Kedron Brook sit on flood-plain alluvium, and fine sediment washes into outdoor drains and gullies every time the creek rises in a wet summer.
Old pipe needs a gentle touch
Cottage-era lines on lots around Eton Street were laid in brittle salt-glazed ware, so the clearing method has to suit the material, not just the blockage.
The Drain Cleaning Work We Do
Six jobs cover almost every slow drain we are called to:
Shower and Bathroom Drains
Soap scum and hair pack shower wastes into a soft plug that worsens every week, and clearing it properly brings the water level back down instead of leaving a slow puddle.
Laundry and Floor Wastes
Laundry troughs and floor wastes collect lint, detergent sludge and grit, and a thorough clear restores the overflow path that keeps a wet-season downpour from backing up across the floor.
Jet Blasting the Pipe Walls
Jet blasting scours grease, silt and root fibres off pipe walls with high-pressure water, leaving a line cleaner for longer than a clear that only punches a hole through the blockage.
Electric Eel Clearing
The electric eel cuts through hard chokes in older rigid pipe without harming it, which matters on cottage-era drains where brittle salt-glazed ware would not survive an aggressive approach.
Outside Gullies and Grates
Outside gullies and overflow grates catch leaves and garden wash-off all year, and a pre-storm clear gives heavy rain somewhere to go other than across your floor.

Problems Drain Cleaning Fixes
Four complaints bring most of this work to us:
The Sink Empties Slowly
A basin that drains slower each week usually has grease or soap narrowing the branch, and a proper clear removes the build-up rather than shifting it further along the pipe.
Water Backs Up in the Shower
Water pooling around your ankles mid-shower points to hair and soap packed into the waste, and clearing the whole run stops the plug reforming a fortnight later.
The Same Drain Blocks Again
A fixture that blocks within months of a clear usually has a structural fault catching debris, so we check the line properly instead of charging you for the same job twice.
Several Fixtures Slow at Once
When the kitchen, shower and laundry slow at the same time, the choke sits in the shared run rather than one branch, and that calls for a full main line clear rather than a fixture clear.
Why It Matters
A slow drain rarely fixes itself:
Damage stays out of the house
A cleared fixture drain carries water away before it can overflow across flooring, and flooring repairs cost far more than the clear.
Small chokes stay small
Build-up removed early never becomes a solid plug, so you avoid the midnight version of the same job.
Repeat blocks get explained
If cleaning never holds, we say so and point you to a camera look or a repair rather than selling you another clear.

On (07) 3524 0742, run through which fixtures are slow, gurgling or overflowing, so the plumber on the way knows where to start.

Price agreed before work
We find the cause, explain the fix and give you a fixed upfront price, and the work only starts once you agree to it.
- 3
Clear the line properly
We run the jetter or eel through the drain until the blockage is gone and the walls are scoured clean, matching the method to the pipe's age and material.

Tested before we leave
We run water through the line until it drains freely and show you the result before we pack up.

Drain Cleaning Questions Nundah
Call (07) 3524 0742How often should drains be cleaned in Nundah?
Most Nundah homes do well with a clean every couple of years, but lines on the low ground beside Kedron Brook that take silt after floods benefit from a check more often.
Is jet blasting safe for old earthenware pipe in Nundah?
Yes, we match the method to the pipe, and the electric eel or a careful jetting setting clears brittle salt-glazed and earthenware lines without cracking them at the sockets during the clear.
What does drain cleaning cost in Nundah?
Costs turn on which drain is blocked, how bad the choke is and whether the line needs a camera check, and you agree a fixed figure with us before any work starts.
Does Urban Utilities clean the sewer main or do I?
Urban Utilities looks after the sewer main under the street, while the drain from your fixtures to that connection is yours, so a slow fixture is usually our job rather than theirs.
Why do kitchen drains block faster near the Sandgate Road cafes?
Cafes and restaurants along Sandgate Road push grease into sewers shared with the apartments above them, so kitchen drains on that side of Nundah often need jetting rather than a simple clear.
How do I arrange a drain clean at my Nundah place?
Call (07) 3524 0742, let us know which sink or shower is misbehaving, and a plumber can usually attend that same day, with the price settled before any work begins.
