Nedlands blocked drains, found and fixed

Plumbed Right clears blocked drains in Nedlands, from the flat streets near the river to the streets towards Karrakatta. We find the blockage with a CCTV camera, clear it with the hydro jet and reline cracked pipes from the inside.

Local drains

Tramway estate to bridal suburb

Nedlands started with the 1907 subdivision of the Nedlands Tramway Estate. After the First World War, returned servicemen and their brides settled here, giving it the nickname the bridal suburb, and in the late 1920s and 1930s Spanish Mission and Mediterranean styles came into fashion.

A Nedlands home from the 1920s is now around a century old. Council guidance on tree roots and sewer pipes says damage typically starts in old-style earthenware clay, at faulty joints, cracks and where the ground has moved, and recommends PVC for any section that gets replaced. A camera inspection shows you which sections of your line are which.

Ground and trees

Flat river ground and losing canopy

Near the water, Nedlands sits on low-lying estuarine deposits that form the flat land of Nedlands and Crawley Bay, and the foreshore itself is flat reclaimed land. Further from the river, Shenton Bushland's Bush Forever listing records Spearwood dune sand derived from Tamala Limestone.

Trees cover 18.4 per cent of the City of Nedlands, about 360 hectares, according to the City's urban forest strategy, and since 2020 Nedlands has lost more canopy than any other suburb in the City. Older street and garden trees still send roots through the sand, and an earthenware joint with a gap in it is an easy way in.

The Nedlands routine

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

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

    Camera

    We start at the inspection opening and push the camera through to the blockage, so you see exactly what's in the pipe.

  2. Two techs feeding the jetter hose into a drain

    Jetter

    The hydro jet cuts through roots, grease and silt. If roots have grown into a solid plug, we cut them with the IMS Robotic Cutter.

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

    Report back

    A final camera run proves the line is clear, and we talk through any cracked or root-damaged sections. Our tree roots in drains page covers the options.

    Blocked drains in Nedlands

    Who is a good plumber in Nedlands for blocked drains?

    Plumbed Right is a licensed drainage plumber (PL7390), Perth family owned since 2005 and rated 4.9 on Google from 769 reviews (Oct 2026). We clear blocked drains across Nedlands. Call 0499 281 430.

    My drain near the river backs up after heavy rain. Why?

    Low, flat ground drains slowly, so stormwater lines and soakwells there have less margin when they silt up or a pipe sags. We jet the line, camera it and show you whether it's silt, roots or a dip in the pipe.

    Should I replace or reline an old clay sewer pipe?

    If the camera shows cracks or open joints but the pipe still holds its shape, relining is often the better route: no trench, and a 25-year warranty on the relining work. A fully collapsed section may need a dig repair.

    Is there a fee for you to come out?

    There's no call-out fee to come out and quote your job, and the on-site quote is free.
