Blocked drains in Botany are typically caused by either underground tree root systems, old pipes, or the sandy soil which causes pipes to move.
Plenty of the older homes in Botany still have clay pipework in the ground. Clay was widely used as a pipe material in the first half of the 20th century. It wasn’t until the 1970s that PVC took over, and even then, PVC was never intended to last for as long as it has. Over time, joints loosen, cracks open up, and the underground tree roots that are synonymous with Botany do the rest of the damage. These tree roots actively look for water underground, and a cracked joint is exactly what they are searching for.
Wet soil and sand with a shallow water table doesn’t help either. That’s why blockages here often come back a few months after clearing, when the sand keeps coming.
The combination of ageing clay pipes, tree roots and the sandy ground is what causes the majority of blocked drain jobs that we attend around Botany, Mascot and Pagewood. It’s also the reason why we don’t simply use a drain snake to fix these issues. You need to work with a local plumber in Botany who will use an underground camera in order to properly assess the damage before using high pressure jetting to clean the line, and then finally relining the drain so that the same issues do not occur again in the future.



High-pressure jetting is ideal for clearing stubborn blockages caused by debris, grease, and obstructions from foreign objects.
