Blocked Drain Plumbers in Riverstone
Drainage in Riverstone is difficult because the drainage network does not have enough slope and the ground level is low. Instead of allowing the water to flow away through the pipes, the water ends up being stuck inside the sewer lines because of the slow drainage rate. This slow draining can become a complete blockage in a short time. If left long enough, it becomes a plumbing emergency. Blocked sewer pipes cause backflow of sewage, water damage and foul smells.
As local plumbers we have done about 33 blocked sewer drain services in Riverstone in the past two years in the town center, near the train line and on Garfield Road East and West and Richmond and Schofield Roads.

Local Knowledge
What Causes Blocked Drains in Riverstone?
Most drainage issues in Riverstone originate from the fact that there is nowhere for the water to go.
Riverstone blocked stormwater drains on flat ground
Since Riverstone is low and flat, drainage pipes are sloped a little, but not much. Debris washed into drainage pipes can cause pipelines to narrow down therefore leading to stagnant water and flooding during rain. Therefore, all that needs to be done is regular cleaning of outdoor drains and stormwater grates
Grease, hair and soap scum
Food particles, grease, soap scum, and hair tend to build up in pipes over time. Older homes near Market Street have narrow waste pipes, and the grease buildup tends to happen faster here. Eventually, we get to a point where bathroom drains and kitchen sinks are draining slowly, and we provide drain cleaning, pipe relining to fix blocked drain problems restoring normal flow.
Sewer connections in the newer estates
Homeowners on Myrica Avenue, Koara Glade, and Persea Avenue had their properties connected to the sewer system in stages. Often, connections laid a little flat will begin to trap waste in one or two years.

Recent Local Job
A Riverstone Job We're Proud Of
Home on Garfield Road East, Riverstone.
The drain was not the problem. The pump was.
A resident from Garfield Road East reached out to us because water had been sitting on their property for three days after a storm, with their surface drains full and stagnant. The same issue had occurred several times that summer, and the previous attempt to fix it was unsuccessful.
Jayden ran high pressure jetting through the stormwater line and checked the footage with a camera. Everything was clean in the line. That ruled out the most obvious explanation. The property drains into a sump with a pump which lifts the water to the discharge area because of the flat terrain which does not permit the water to flow otherwise. The pump had an issue and stopped working. Nobody had known the pump was there. Jayden replaced it, reworked the discharge pipework, and tested the system under load before leaving.

We are in the city centre, as well as along Garfield Road, and the suburbs to the east of the railway.

What causes most blocked drains in Riverstone?
Our primary concern is flat ground. The pipes in this area rarely have any slope, meaning that anything that reduces the size of the pipe will block flow. Grease often causes problems in older homes close to the railway station; whereas, the new homes are likely having issues due to insufficient slope of the drains.
Can you fix a damaged drain without digging up my yard?
Generally speaking, yes. For severe blockages, With CCTV inspection, you will know where the problem lies. It pinpoints why it’s not draining properly, where the damage occurs for these stubborn blockages. With hydro jetting or high pressure mechanical water jetting, it clear blockages efficiently and and pipe relining inserts a new liner into the existing pipes with minimal disruption. Hence, there is hardly any need for excavation for underground pipe drain repairs, which means lawns and driveways remain intact.
My yard floods after rain and the drains are clear. What else could it be?
When it comes to flat-topped blocks such as Riverstone’s, a lot of properties are connected to some rubbish water runoff into a sump area, where pumps are used to lift the water. If the pump has failed to function, there might be no blockage in drainage pipes. However, flooding occurs in the yard.

Yes. Our trusted local plumbers hold NSW Contractor Licence A3149 and carry full public liability insurance. Every plumber attending a Riverstone job is licensed, and all work is completed to Australian Standards with a warranty on the repair.
