Residential Drain Inspection & Cleaning

Nobody wants a blocked drain! Firstly we come to your home and use our high pressure drain cleaners (Drain Jetters) to clear your blockage, then use our high-tech CCTV Ridgid drain cameras to investigate and determine what the cause of your blockage was, ranging from tree roots entering into your drains to paper blockages. We can pinpoint the location of these problems and provide you with a solution to stop this occurring again. With up to 8 technicians on the road at any one time we can also attend quickly and have minimal impact to you homeowner.

How do you know if you have a blocked drain or pipe?

  • After flushing, toilets fill up then recede slowly
  • Drainage may overflow outside
  • Bad odours
  • Water fills up and recedes slowly in sinks

What causes my drains to become blocked?

  • Deteriorated physical condition
  • The flushing of foreign items
  • Tree roots entering a broken pipe
  • Ground movement

How do I know for sure what is causing the blockage?

Our inspection and survey will jet clean your pipes, removing any blockages and enabling a clear view and assessment of the section that is blocked with our CCTV drain cameras. We then provide you with a quote for a simple, practical and cost effective relining solution to your problem pipes, all recorded to DVD for you to see exactly what’s happening underground.

Tunnel Vision can repair almost any type of pipe with minimal disruption to your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you clear a blocked drain?

At Tunnel Vision we use high pressure drain cleaners to clean the drain, this allows us to utilise the high pressure water to clear the blockage, we then use our CCTV drain cameras to inspect the drain and provide you with a solution or resolution to stop the blockage recurring again.

What causes a blocked drain?

Many things can cause a blocked drain, for example tree roots, sand, building rubble, fat, grease build up, even items such as kids toys and play equipment have been found in the drain to be causing a blockage.

Do you offer a warranty after clearing a blocked drain?

The simple answer is no, for the reason being that after clearing your blocked drain and inspecting it with our CCTV drain camera we will show you what was the cause of the blockage, it is then hard to warrant that the drain will ever block again due to the many reasons why a drain could be blocked, including that tree roots will grow back if the drain is not repaired and a grease build will also reoccur if foods and scraps are put down the kitchen sink.

What is pipe relining?

Pipe Relining is when we insert a sleeve into the ground to seal/repair the broken drain without the need to dig up and replace the drain. Our technology allows us to repair the drain with minimal impact on the surrounding area. This can save you considerable time and costs involved with reinstating the area affecting by excavation. This solution is also very handy when the issue is located under a concrete slab of your home and is not able to be dug up.

Do you offer a warranty on Pipe Relining?

Yes! Our pipe relining comes with a 50yr product warranty and a 10yr workmanship warranty, giving you peace of mind that the drain will not cause you any further issues due to tree root ingress etc…

I wanted to take this opportunity to commend the outstanding professionalism of the plumber who actioned this particular job. His expertise in identifying the problem and resolving it quickly and effectively was impressive. I have had previous plumbers attend to this particular issue, and also other issues, however none have conducted themselves with such a high level of professionalism. I would appreciate your conveying my personal thanks to the plumber involved and can assure you I will be utilising his services again, via Tunnel Vision WA, if and should the need arise. Many thanks again.
Craig Wilson, Willetton
I received prompt profession service in response to a severe blockage caused by tree roots growing into my drain. I recommend Tunnel vision to anyone who is experiencing blocked drains which have occurred more than a few times in the previous year.
Joe, WA
Recently we were having huge plumbing problems. Having contacted Tunnel Vision on one previous occasion and been very happy with their service, I called them again. Their response was quick and helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend Tunnel Vision.
Walter and Jan, Como WA
I would like to thank you and your company for the advice and guidance when dealing with a potentially expensive plumbing problem. Not only did your technician isolate the problem with the plumbing, but his people skills in keeping all concerned happy with the problem a pleasure to listen to and watch. Your technician kept me calm during the debacle and saved my sanity. I will be recommending your company whenever possible. Thanks for the great service.
