DRAIN CLEARING GOLD COAST – No Call Out Fee

Blocked drains are costly, inconvenient and can cause damage to a property if not cleared promptly. If a blocked drain bursts, the foul-smelling contents can cover a home or garden with sewage and waste resulting in potential contamination, a costly repair and not to mention being unpleasant for everyone all round.

Blocked Drain FAQs

How much does it cost to clear a blocked drain?

It will cost around $187 to $330 to clear your blocked drain depending on the type of equipment needed for the job. Our starting costs are $187 if it’s manual labour, and $330 for the first hour if we use the jetting/CCTV equipment. Drains block for many reasons and therefore have a few different solutions to clear them.

What is the main cause of a blocked drain?

One of the leading causes of blocked drains is putting something down the drain that shouldn’t go down. Blocked drains and blocked toilets are often caused by sanitary products, paper towels or other hard to flush materials.

How do I get rid of smelly drains?

If your bathroom seems to suffer from sewer smells every once in a while, but doesn’t show signs of any blockages, you may benefit from fitting a device in your floor waste that prevents sewer smells from travelling back up into the room. If you have a consistently unpleasant odour coming from your drains, ask your DCM plumber how we can help cure this annoying problem on our next visit!

What are the signs of a blocked drain?

Blocked drains can show warning signs before they become an emergency.

Here are a few signs:

Water is not draining away in the bathroom, kitchen or laundry.
Sewage overflowing in the backyard.
Toilets backing up.
A rancid smell that can extend to neighbouring properties.

The work was to install a new draining system in the carport area. Dean was on time, courteous, professional and informative of the job he was about to undertake. During the day, If there was any potential issues, Dean would inform me for the need to change. Both Dean and Jackson completed the job and it looked very professional. Before leaving, they cleaned up the area and gave instructions on what to expect in the next couple of days. I would recommend DCM and in particular both Dean and Jackson for any work within their profession.

Karl was brilliant he came on time and had the curtosy to ring ahead to let me know he was on his way. when he got here I explained the problem and he instantly knew how to solve it and where the blockage would be. He had it cleaned out straight away and ran a camera though the pipe to check the blockage was gone. He was very professional the whole time he was here and I would highly recommend Karl to anyone.

Ben Wallace

Karl was on time, friendly and knowledgeable. Checked over the job. Confirmed all the details. Confirmed the price AND started and completed the job within a few hours. Utmost professionalism. Even better...he cleaned up his work areas after himself and disposed of his own rubbish. If only the other trades I have used in the past few weeks were this meticulous.I have used DCM plumbing on a few occasions as necessary over the years. Though this is the first time I have met Karl I believe. Everytime they have been out, it's literally been the same experience. 5 star each time. 10/10 will use again.

We had Karl and Jackson out to investigate an issue with our stormwater drainage. They were professional, friendly, and kept us updated on the progress. Great communication from the get go. Reasonably priced and very well organised — we requested a quote for additional drainage works and the written quote was sent to us that afternoon! It was refreshing to deal with such an efficient, well organised company. Overall I was very happy with my experience & will definitely be using them again in future.

Karl the plumber was very punctual and carefully explained what would be done to fix my problem. His work and finish was exemplary. I was given an up front quote before any work was done. A free assessment of the plumbing in and around the house was another fine feature of Karl’s work ( for DCM ).My initial contact was over the phone with Gill who was able organise a plumber very quickly for my convenience. She then confirmed who would be attending along with the plumber’s photo and profile. A nice added safety feature for us ‘oldies’ around Burleigh.Thank you DCM.
