Clearing Blocked Drains Properly

When sinks stop draining or a blocked toilet begins backing up, the problem is usually somewhere inside the pipe. As a blocked drain plumber, Kingdom Plumbing Services clears obstructions within drainage systems for homes and businesses across Cairns and surrounding areas. Rather than guessing where the issue might be, we inspect the pipe and remove the blockage using the right equipment for the job. Our team uses CCTV drain cameras, high-pressure water jetters and electric eels to locate the obstruction and clear the line so water can flow normally again.


If drains around your property aren’t flowing the way they should, we’ll find the cause and clear the pipe. Call 0476 762 511 to organise a free quote.

How We Clear Blocked Drains

Blocked drains rarely clear without the right tools because the obstruction usually sits somewhere inside the pipework. Different equipment is used depending on what is found during inspection.


Drain clearing work commonly involves:

  • CCTV drain camera inspections to locate blockages
  • High-pressure water jetting to break apart debris
  • Electric eel machines for stubborn pipe blockages
  • Clearing blocked toilets and internal drains
  • Investigating recurring sewer blockages
  • Removing grease, waste or foreign objects inside pipes


Using the right machinery allows the blockage to be removed properly and helps identify problems inside the drain before they cause repeat issues.

Everything You Need To Know

  • What are the signs of a blocked drain?

    Common signs include slow draining sinks, gurgling sounds from pipes, water rising in toilets or unpleasant smells from drains. These symptoms usually indicate a blockage somewhere inside the pipe restricting water flow. If left unresolved, the obstruction can worsen and eventually cause wastewater to back up into fixtures such as sinks, showers or floor wastes.

  • How does a plumber find where a drain is blocked?

    Plumbers commonly use CCTV drain cameras to inspect inside pipes and locate the obstruction. The camera travels through the drainage line and shows the exact position and cause of the blockage. This allows the plumber to determine the most effective method for clearing the drain rather than relying on trial-and-error methods.

  • What equipment is used to clear blocked drains?

    Blocked drains are often cleared using high-pressure water jetters, electric eel machines or mechanical drain tools. Water jetters break apart grease, debris and sediment inside pipes, while electric eels cut through blockages and roots. The method used depends on the location and type of obstruction inside the drainage system.
