Did you know?
Common drain blockages such as blocked sinks and bathroom pipes are most often caused by a build-up of organic materials such as grease, hair, soap scum, food particles, paper and cotton.
No blocked drain plumbing job is too small or too big for us. Whether you have a blocked drain, cracked piping or roots in your drains, we have high-end equipment suited to every plumbing issue imaginable.
High-Pressure Water Jet Cleaner
High-Pressure Water Jetting is the most effective way of cleaning the most stubborn blockages. Anything from kitchen grease to paper towels, sanitary items to tree roots are no match for our water jetting equipment.
Using this method, a high-pressure jet of water is sent into the stormwater or sewer line. By using different cutting heads, our Lismore plumbers can utilise the jet to break down roots, debris, grease and sludge. This is then flushed out of the line, making it completely clear and useable once again.
Regular preventive maintenance is key to keeping drain lines flowing freely. Plumbing in restaurants and other commercial establishments typically require frequent high-pressure water jet cleaning to remove mineral deposits, grease build-up, sludge and debris that accumulate in lines. Some businesses may require just one or two cleanings annually while others benefit from monthly or quarterly pipe cleanings. Cleaner pipes mean fewer emergency service calls and less down time, saving you money.
Although a high-pressure water jet is a highly effective method of pipe clearing, it cannot completely guarantee the removal of the root growth permanently. This is because breakages in your pipes may allow for further root growth. These breakages can only be detected using a CCTV drain camera.
Using the CCTV drain camera, our team can precisely determine the root cause of your blockage and can even provide the footage for you to view.
CCTV Camera Pipe Inspections
O’Brien Electrical & Plumbing Lismore provides CCTV drain line inspections to enable you to make informed decisions about your pipeline and drainage systems.
With the use of a CCTV drain camera, our plumbing team can locate the source of a blockage or problem in your stormwater or sewer lines.
This usually indicates what further steps are required. Our clients are provided with footage of the inspection – enabling us to discuss the problem and ascertain whether excavation or sewer maintenance is needed.
