Local drains

Brick bungalows from the 1920s

Dalkeith was subdivided in 1911 and grew with the Perth-wide building boom of the 1920s. A Road Board by-law required houses to be built of brick, and styles ran from Federation to the Californian bungalow. A State Government foreshore study describes Nedlands and Dalkeith as suburbs of large blocks where most homes are single-storey bungalows.

Large blocks mean long drain runs from the house to the sewer connection. Water Corporation says suburbs more than 20 years old are less likely to have PVC wastewater pipes, and that a root needs only a hairline fracture. On a long, old line, there's a lot of pipe for a root to find.

Ground and trees

River on three sides

The Swan River surrounds Dalkeith on three sides, and the same foreshore study notes steep outcrops of coastal limestone along the Dalkeith shore. Much of the suburb is built on that limestone landform.

Dalkeith is also well treed. The City of Nedlands' urban forest strategy found treeless parts of Shenton Park were 9°C hotter than treed areas of Dalkeith. That shade comes from big trees with big root systems, and those roots go wherever there's moisture, including a weeping joint in a house drain.

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

  1. CCTV monitor on gravel with the camera cable running into the drain

    Trace it

    We put the camera in and follow the drain the full length of the block, so we find the blockage and any damage past it.

  2. Two techs feeding the jetter hose into a drain

    Clear it

    The hydro jet cleans roots, fat and silt from the pipe wall. Root masses too dense for water get the IMS Robotic Cutter.

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

    Repair it

    With the line clear, we camera it again and talk you through pipe relining for any cracked sections, so lawns, paving and gardens stay as they are.

    Blocked drains in Dalkeith

    Do you have a plumber for Dalkeith blocked drains?

    Yes. Plumbed Right clears blocked drains in Dalkeith and the neighbouring suburbs of Nedlands and Claremont, with same-day service across Perth metro. Call 0499 281 430.

    My block is large and the sewer line is long. Does that change anything?

    It can. A long run has more joints, more chances for roots, and the blockage may be a long way from where the symptoms show. The camera tells us exactly where to work, so we don't guess.

    Can a relined pipe handle tree roots?

    A relined pipe has no joints for roots to push through, because the liner forms a continuous new pipe inside the old one. Relining work carries our 25-year warranty.

    Who's responsible if the blockage is under the street?

    Water Corporation looks after blockages in the sewer main, which normally runs outside the property. The pipes within your property are yours. Our camera shows us where the blockage is before we quote.
