Our complete drain unblocking services

1. CCTV drain inspections
We carry out detailed CCTV drain inspections to identify blockages, cracks, and tree roots. This pinpoints the problem and ensures the right blocked drain repair for your home.
2. High-pressure water jetting
Our high-pressure drain cleaning equipment blasts away grease, silt, and intruding roots. It restores full pipe flow and is safe for residential sewer and stormwater drains.
3. Tree root removal
Tree roots are a major cause of blocked drains in the Blue Mountains. We cut and remove roots, then recommend pipe relining or barriers to prevent future blockages.
4. Sewer choke clearing
A sewer choke can quickly cause overflows and health risks. We diagnose the choke, clear it fast, and confirm the system is safe and free-flowing.

5. Drain odour solutions
Unpleasant smells often mean sewer gas escaping from failed traps or vents. We trace the source, complete repairs, and stop odours at the root cause.
6. Preventive drain maintenance
Regular drain cleaning and maintenance keeps your pipes clear and reduces emergencies. Quick Mick’s offers scheduled checks for Penrith, St Marys, and the wider Blue Mountains.
7. Gully, trap & grate replacements
We replace damaged gullies, traps, and grates to improve drainage safety and performance. New components help prevent both blockages and flooding around your property.

Blocked drains FAQS
What causes blocked drains locally?
.svg)
The most common causes of blocked drains in the Blue Mountains and Penrith are tree root intrusion, grease build-up, foreign objects, and collapsed or cracked pipes. Older suburbs like Katoomba and Springwood often have clay drains that deteriorate, making them more prone to blockages.
Do chemical drain cleaners work?
Store-bought drain cleaners rarely fix the underlying issue and can corrode pipes. Professional methods such as high-pressure water jetting and CCTV inspections are safer and more effective for homes in Penrith, Springwood, and the Blue Mountains, ensuring blocked drains are cleared properly and won’t reappear.
Jet blasting vs drain snake tools
A drain snake only clears surface debris, while high-pressure drain jetting removes silt, grease, and tree roots deep inside pipes. For stubborn blocked drains in Penrith and the Blue Mountains, jet blasting is the best long-term solution, giving your sewer or stormwater system a thorough clean.
How do I prevent future blockages?
Preventing blocked drains starts with regular maintenance. Quick Mick’s Plumbing provides scheduled drain cleaning and CCTV inspections for homes in root-prone suburbs such as Springwood, Katoomba, and Penrith. Proactive care reduces costly emergencies and keeps your pipes flowing year-round.
How fast can you attend emergencies?
Quick Mick’s Plumbing offers same-day blocked drain services for urgent callouts across the Blue Mountains, Penrith, St Marys, and Katoomba. Blocked drains can cause flooding and property damage, so we prioritise emergencies and use jetting equipment to get your drains flowing again quickly.
How do I spot a blocked drain early?
Signs of a drain blockage include slow draining sinks, gurgling noises, foul odours, and water backing up into showers or toilets. If you notice these symptoms in St Marys, Penrith, or the Blue Mountains, arrange a CCTV drain inspection to confirm and prevent further damage.
