Bayswater drains, camera first

Plumbed Right clears blocked drains in Bayswater on both sides of Tonkin Highway and the Midland railway line, from the river flats up to the higher ground in the north. We look in the pipe with a CCTV camera before we price the job.

We've been Perth family owned since 2005 and hold licence PL7390, and we're rated 4.9 on Google from 769 reviews (Oct 2026).

Local drains

Railway estate to brick homes

Bayswater grew around the railway. The Fremantle to Guildford line opened in 1881, the Bayswater Estate was advertised in five-acre lots in July 1885, and the station was built in 1896. The first homes were owner-built from corrugated iron and weatherboard. After 1904, most new buildings were brick and weatherboard, built to last.

Building picked up quickly again after the Second World War, and subdividing older lots is common today. A single Bayswater block can carry sewer pipe laid in very different decades.

Our job notes from August 2024 to September 2026 cover 83 Bayswater jobs. More than a third mention the sewer line and three in ten mention relining. More than one in five mention roots, and more than one in ten a collapsed or broken pipe.

In September 2026 a Bayswater toilet was flushing slowly and the laundry sink gurgled whenever the shower ran. The camera traced it to roots in the main line about 28 metres from the toilet's inspection opening, around half a metre down. We jetted them out and confirmed the line was running clear.

Ground and trees

Bassendean dunes and the brook

The suburb sits on the Bassendean Dunes, heavily leached white to grey sands laid down in the middle Pleistocene. It rises from about 2 metres at the river to 45 metres at Hillcrest Primary School, and groundwater sits around 10 metres down.

Bayswater Brook once linked the area's swamps and creeks. In the 1920s it was turned into drainage channels, some open and some covered, and it now runs into the Eric Singleton Bird Sanctuary and on to the Swan River. Old suburbs have old trees too: an olive on Slade Street, said to date from the 1840s, is the oldest surviving trace of European settlement here.

Old line, careful clear

Camera first, then the right tool for what we find in Bayswater.

    Map the line

    On an older or subdivided block, we camera from the nearest opening to work out where your pipe runs and where along it the blockage sits.

  2. Two techs feeding the jetter hose into a drain

    Clear the bore

    The hydro jet clears grease, silt and fine roots. Where roots have filled the pipe, the IMS Robotic Cutter trims them back from inside.

  3. Two techs at a side-passage pit, one checking the CCTV monitor

    Reline or leave it

    After a clean camera run, we tell you whether the old pipe can stay as it is or should be relined. Pipe relining puts a new pipe inside the old one without a trench.

    Blocked drains in Bayswater

    My Bayswater house is on a subdivided lot. Does that matter for the drains?

    It can. Subdividing older Bayswater lots is common, and a newer house can join an older sewer line laid decades earlier. The camera shows where the two meet and what shape the older section is in.

    Can an old Bayswater sewer pipe be relined?

    Usually, if it still holds its round shape. A liner goes in through an access point and cures inside the old pipe, sealing cracked and open joints with no trench. A section that has fully collapsed may need digging instead.

    Do you charge to come out?

    Not to quote. There's no call-out fee for a Bayswater quote.

    Can you come on a weekend?

    Ring 0499 281 430 at any hour; it's answered 24/7. Weekend and after-hours rates can differ from weekday rates, so check the rate on the call.
