Local drains

Named in 1971 after Walter Padbury

The suburb took its name in 1971, after the Western Australian settler Walter Padbury. Locals still use two older names: Hepburn Heights for the south-east corner and Pinnaroo Heights for the eastern end.

Padbury has been a suburb since 1971, well past the 20-year mark Water Corporation uses when it warns that older suburbs are less likely to have PVC wastewater pipes. It also notes that a hairline crack is enough for a root. Our camera tells you which kind of pipe you have and whether a root has already found it.

Ground and trees

Limestone close to the surface

Hepburn Heights, 53 hectares of bushland and woodland, is the suburb's big green patch. Its heritage listing describes a transitional zone between the coastal Quindalup dunes and the Spearwood dunes, with plants that grow only on limestone outcrops and shallow soil over limestone.

Where Padbury soil is shallow over limestone, stormwater has less room to soak away. The City of Joondalup requires all rain that falls on your lot to stay there, in soakwells or drainage cells, and sets them back from buildings by at least their own depth. When a soakwell sits on rock and fills with silt, water backs up the pipe and out of the downpipe. Clearing the line and the soakwell together usually sorts it.

What happens when we arrive

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

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

    We look first

    A CCTV camera goes down the drain so we can see the blockage, the pipe material and any damage.

  2. Two techs feeding the jetter hose into a drain

    We clear it

    High-pressure water from the hydro jet cuts through grease, silt and roots. For roots a jet can't shift we bring the IMS Robotic Cutter.

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

    We prove it

    We camera the line again so you can see it flowing. Cracked sections can be relined, and you'll find more on tree roots in drains if roots are the cause.

    Blocked drains in Padbury

    Do you unblock drains in Hepburn Heights and Pinnaroo Heights?

    Yes. Both are part of Padbury, Hepburn Heights in the south-east corner and Pinnaroo Heights at the eastern end, and we work in every part of the suburb. Call 0499 281 430 to book.

    Why does water pool around my soakwell?

    Usually the soakwell is full of silt or the pipe feeding it is blocked or broken. On shallow soil over limestone a soakwell also has less room to drain. We jet the line, camera it and tell you which problem you've got.

    What happens if you can't clear it?

    If we can't clear the blockage, you don't pay for the attempt. We'll show you on camera why it won't clear, often a collapsed or root-filled section, and quote the repair separately.

    Do I need to be home when you come?

    It helps, because we'll want to show you the camera footage and agree the price before we start. If you can't be there, call 0499 281 430 and we'll work out access with you.
