Services
Unblock Toilets
Our toilet unblocking service addresses urgent drainage issues caused by inappropriate disposal, structural problems, or lack of maintenance. Using advanced equipment, we resolve blockages swiftly while maintaining hygiene standards. Clients receive immediate assistance through direct phone contact without automated systems. The service includes diagnostic assessment and targeted solutions to prevent recurrence.
CCTV Drain Surveys
CCTV drain surveys utilise miniature camera technology to identify blockages, root ingress, or structural damage within drainage systems. This non-invasive method provides accurate diagnostics for targeted repairs. The service includes digital recording of findings for client reference and future maintenance planning. Surveys help prevent emergency situations through early problem detection.
Drain Jetting
High-pressure water jetting removes stubborn blockages caused by fat deposits, tree roots, and mineral buildup. Our certified operatives use Water Jetting Association-approved equipment to clean drainage systems thoroughly. The service includes safety compliance checks and post-cleaning flow verification. This method effectively restores drainage capacity while minimising excavation requirements.
Drain Repairs
Our drain repair service addresses cracked pipes, displaced joints, and root ingress using traditional and trenchless methods. No-dig technology options reduce disruption while maintaining structural integrity. Repairs include patch lining for localized damage and full-section relining for extensive wear. All work complies with current Health & Safety regulations and industry standards.
Emergency Services
Emergency drain unblocking operates continuously with guaranteed response times. Qualified engineers attend incidents within two hours of contact, carrying essential tools for immediate action. The service covers all drainage emergencies including flooding, backups, and structural failures. Clients receive clear communication throughout the intervention process.

Drain & Able went out of their way to provide me with excellent customer service - even though I wasn't a paying customer! They recommended someone trusty to use when they weren't able to help with my issue. When a company does that, their quality and professionalism shines through. I would highly recommend them for work in the future - they provided competitive pricing to other companies offering the same service.

Report
Dianne and Connor are exceptional. When the big companies had left me with the expected "not our problem", or 'this isn't something we help with', I was getting hugely stressed,. Connor had a full work schedule but still took time to listen and provide really helpful advice - Dianne helped with finding other contractors they trusted that I could contact. I left them with a clear idea if what to do next and was grateful for someone listening and making me feel like the problem wasn't mine alone. I definitely recommend them and will be using them again.
