Blocked Drains Gold Coast Drain Clearing & CCTV Inspections
5 Signs You May Have a Blocked Drain
Blocked drains can cause anything from slow-draining sinks and gurgling noises to unpleasant smells and overflowing sewage.
Common signs of a blocked drain include:
- Gurgling noises from toilets, sinks or drains
- Water draining slowly from sinks, showers or baths
- Toilets not flushing properly or water levels rising
- Unpleasant smells coming from drains
- Water backing up or overflowing from outside drains

Blocked Drain Clearing & CCTV Camera Inspections
At Plumbmasters, we don't just clear the blockage. We investigate what's causing it so we can recommend the best way forward.
Depending on the problem, our plumbers may use high-pressure water jetting equipment to clear the blockage and a CCTV drain camera to inspect the pipework.
A camera inspection can help identify issues such as tree roots, damaged pipes, foreign objects or sections of drainage that may be causing repeated blockages.
Once we've identified the problem, we'll explain our findings and recommend the most suitable repair or maintenance options.
If the drain is damaged or continues to block, we can also provide a quotation for further repairs.
What Causes Blocked Drains?
Blocked drains can be caused by a range of issues, including:
- Tree roots entering drainage pipes
- Fats, oils and grease building up in pipes
- Foreign objects and debris
- Damaged, broken or poorly installed drainage pipes
- Wet wipes and sanitary products
Did you know? 'Flushable' wipes can still block your drains.
Unlike toilet paper, many wet wipes don't break down easily in water, even when they're labelled as flushable. Our advice? Put wipes in the bin, not down the toilet. It's a simple way to help prevent costly drain blockages.
