A blocked sewer is one of the most urgent and hazardous plumbing problems you can face. When sewer lines block, they don’t warn you gently — they overflow. Toilets back up. Drains gurgle. Sewage rises into showers, yards or bathrooms. The health risks are serious, and the damage can be extensive if not fixed immediately.

Jayco Plumbing provides specialised blocked sewer services across Greater Sydney, using high-pressure sewer jetting and CCTV drain inspection technology to clear blockages quickly, safely and permanently.

When a sewer is blocked, you need experience — and action — not guesswork.

Common Causes of Blocked Sewers in Sydney

1. Tree Root Intrusion

Sydney’s clay and earthenware pipes are especially vulnerable. Roots seek moisture and break into pipes through tiny cracks.

2. “Flushable” Wipes

These do not break down and are the #1 cause of modern sewer blockages.

3. Grease and Fat Build-Up

Restaurants and homes often clog sewer lines with:

  • Cooking oils
  • Soap scum
  • Food sludge

Cracked, collapsed or dislodged pipes restrict flow.

4. Structural Pipe Damage

Cracked, collapsed or dislodged pipes restrict flow.

5. Sagging Sewer Lines

Ground movement can create low points where waste collects.

6. Foreign Objects

Common culprits include:

  • Toys
  • Hygiene products
  • Cotton buds
  • Plastics
  • Excessive toilet paper

Stormwater entering sewer systems causes backups.

7. Heavy Rainfall & Stormwater Ingress

Stormwater entering sewer systems causes backups.

8. Old Pipe Materials

Clay, cast iron and degraded PVC pipes are highly prone to failure.

We identify exactly why your sewer is blocked — and provide permanent solutions.

Signs Your Sewer Is Blocked

Inside the Property

  • Toilet water rising too high
  • Water backing up in the shower
  • Basin or tub draining slowly
  • Gurgling sounds from drains
  • Sewage smells in the bathroom
  • Multiple fixtures blocking at once

Outside the Property

  • Overflowing relief gully (ORG)
  • Wet patches in garden
  • Sewage flooding the yard
  • Unusual smells around the property

High-Risk Situations

  • Upstairs toilet overflowing
  • Raw sewage entering home
  • Water coming up from floor wastes

If any of these occur, you need urgent sewer clearing.

Our Blocked Sewer Process

1.

Urgent Assessment

We identify:

  • Severity
  • Location
  • Health risks
  • Best clearing method
2.

Sewer Jet Blasting

Jet blasting is the gold standard for sewer cleaning and cuts through:

  • Tree roots
  • Grease
  • Sludge
  • Foreign deposits
  • Scale

It restores full pipe diameter for proper flow.

3.

CCTV Drain Inspection

Once the line is clear, we insert a camera to:

  • Verify internal condition
  • Confirm blockage source
  • Identify damaged sections

This stops recurring blockages.

4.

Permanent Repair Options

Depending on what we find, we recommend:

  • Pipe relining (no-dig solution)
  • Sectional pipe replacement
  • Root cutting
  • Complete sewer replacement (if required)

We explain every option clearly.

5.

Full System Testing

We ensure:

  • All fixtures drain correctly
  • No leaks
  • Proper flow
  • No remaining obstruction

Your sewer returns to full working order.

Why Jet Blasting Is Essential for Sewer Clearing

Many plumbers still use old-fashioned drain snakes and rods.

Jet blasting is the only reliable method for deep sewer problems. It:

  • Cuts roots
  • Breaks down years of build-up
  • Flushes debris out
  • Restores the pipe interior
  • Prevents immediate reblocking

A plunger won’t fix a real sewer blockage.

Sewer Pipe Relining (No-Dig Repair)

If the sewer line is cracked or structurally damaged, pipe relining is often the best solution.

Benefits of relining:

  • No excavation
  • Long-lasting (50+ years)
  • Strengthens pipe internally
  • Stops root entry
  • Restores full function
  • Ideal for driveways & gardens

We provide relining after all major sewer clearances if required.
