Sewer & Drainage Maintenance

CCTV inspections, jet rodding and drain repairs across Sydney.

Blocked drains and sewer faults are one of the most disruptive, and most preventable, problems in any building. A backed-up sewer can close amenities, flood a basement or cause health and environmental issues. Fenech Plumbing & Gas provides both reactive blockage clearing and planned, scheduled drain maintenance for strata, commercial and property-managed buildings: CCTV inspections, high-pressure jet rodding, root cutting and repairs, with a clear condition report each time.

What sewer & drainage maintenance covers

  • CCTV drain camera inspections: we locate blockages, cracks, root intrusion and pipe damage and show you exactly what's happening underground.
  • High-pressure jet rodding: clears grease, sludge, roots and debris and restores full flow.
  • Root cutting & removal: the most common cause of recurring blockages in older sewers.
  • Drain & sewer repairs: from pipe relining and patch repairs to dig-and-replace where needed.
  • Stormwater & pit clearing: keeping drainage and detention systems flowing before storm season.
  • Condition reports: footage and a written summary for your records and capital-works planning.

Why scheduled drainage maintenance pays off

For strata and commercial buildings, a planned drain maintenance schedule, a periodic CCTV inspection and preventive jet clean of known problem lines, costs far less than an emergency callout, a flooded basement or an insurance claim. Recurring root intrusion, grease build-up in food-tenancy lines and ageing clay sewers are predictable; catching them on a schedule keeps tenants trading and avoids after-hours premiums.

Why Fenech Plumbing & Gas

Drainage maintenance pairs with our strata plumbing and commercial maintenance programs, alongside backflow and TMV testing, so we can cover all of a building's plumbing in one schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Can you find a blockage without digging up the property?

Yes. We run a CCTV drain camera through the line to locate the exact position and cause of a blockage, then clear it with high-pressure jet rodding. This pinpoints the problem so any repair is targeted rather than guesswork, avoiding unnecessary excavation.

Who is responsible for a blocked sewer: the owner or Sydney Water?

As a general rule the property owner is responsible for the sewer pipes on their property up to the connection point, while Sydney Water is responsible for the main beyond it. We can inspect the line, confirm where the blockage sits and advise who is responsible before any work proceeds.

Can you clear tree roots from drains?

Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of recurring blockages. We cut and clear roots with high-pressure jet rodding and mechanical tools, and CCTV the line afterwards to check the pipe condition and recommend a longer-term fix if the pipe is damaged.

Do you offer ongoing drainage maintenance for buildings?

Yes. For strata and commercial buildings we can schedule preventative jetting and CCTV inspections of known problem lines, which reduces emergency blockages and keeps shared drainage flowing reliably.

Peter & his team have twice done work at our house. The most recent was blocked drainage. He was professional, genuine & turned up when he said he was going to. Would recommend him without a doubt.

Peter and team did an excellent job installing a channel drain around our garage. The site was left in immaculate condition, and the job done to a very high standard. Easy communication and on time. Highly recommend!
