Tell us what's happening

The short answer
Two different problems look the same: a blocked or silted pipe, or a yard with nowhere lower to drain to. We check the pipe first.
How it works
Step 1: Call or book online
Tell us what is happening. We ask the right questions and book a time that suits you.
Step 2: We find the cause
A licensed plumber diagnoses it properly, with a drain camera, leak detection or a pressure test where it helps.
Step 3: A fixed price, agreed first
You agree the price before any work starts. We quote the job, not the hour, so there are no surprise charges.
Step 4: Done right, guaranteed
We finish the job, clean up, and back our workmanship with a lifetime labour guarantee.
Step 5: You know the price first
The figure for the whole job, in writing, before anyone starts. That figure is what turns up on the invoice.

Questions and answers
Sydney clay holds water and gives it nowhere to go, and any pipe that was there has usually silted shut. We check the pipe first because clearing it is the smaller of the two answers.
No, and anyone who says otherwise has not put a level on the ground. Where the low corner sits under the street outlet, gravity has nothing to work with.
A gravel trench that lets water soak into the ground can work on sandy soil. On heavy clay it fills and sits, like the pond you already have, so we rarely suggest one in clay yards.
We can show where it enters and how it travels, and a pit or channel on your side can catch it. Who is responsible for water crossing a boundary is a matter for you, your neighbour and possibly council, and our findings help that conversation.
There will be a trench, but it is kept as narrow as the pipe allows. The turf is cut, set aside and laid back over the compacted trench.
Usually not, unless water is reaching the house. If it is, a plumber answers the phone 24/7 and after-hours attendance is quoted on the phone before anyone leaves.
