Local drains

A farming township that became a suburb

Wanneroo is one of the oldest settled parts of Perth's north. The Wesleyan Missionary Society ran a farm near Lake Goollelal from 1844, James and Mary-Ann Cockman started a dairy here in 1852, and by 1872 about 60 families were farming along the lakes and Wanneroo Road. The townsite was gazetted in 1907, and the City of Wanneroo dates the swift expansion of the area to after the 1971 Corridor Plan.

That long history shows up underground. A house on the old townsite can sit on drains decades older than one a few streets away, and some blocks were on septic before sewer arrived. The City still issues permits for septic tanks and aerobic treatment units, so not every property in the wider district is on deep sewer even now.

Our job notes from August 2024 to September 2026 cover 106 Wanneroo jobs. More than one in five mention tree roots, more than one in ten mention a collapsed or broken pipe, and seven mention a septic system.

In September 2026 a Wanneroo home had every fixture blocked. We jetted the main line clear from downstream of the discharge gully, then the camera showed tree roots about 8 metres down, just past a Y-junction, with a cracked joint letting them in.

Ground and trees

Between the Wanneroo wetlands

Wanneroo sits on the Swan Coastal Plain, with the Wanneroo wetlands stretching parallel to the coast to the north and south of the suburb, and Lake Joondalup is next door.

Ground near wetlands gives roots an easy run towards any pipe joint that leaks a little water, and older yards here have had a long time to grow big trees. Where a block went from septic to sewer, the old soakwell and the pipes around it are worth a look on camera, because a forgotten line can sag or break years later.

Wanneroo jobs, in three steps

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

  1. Tech running a CCTV drain camera at a side-yard pit beside a Colorbond fence

    Trace the line

    The camera goes in from your inspection opening or a gully and follows the pipe to the blockage. On older blocks we also check where the line runs, in case it heads towards an old tank.

  2. Tech in hi-vis on the trailer jetter on a suburban verge

    Break it up

    The hydro jet cuts roots, sludge and toilet paper off the pipe wall and flushes it towards the sewer. Roots that have filled the pipe are cut out from inside with the IMS Robotic Cutter.

  3. Two techs in hi-vis at an open drain pit in a garden with a CCTV reel

    Show you the pipe

    Once it runs, the camera goes back through so you can see the result. A sagging or broken section is explained on screen, with drain repairs and relining priced before you decide.

    Blocked drains in Wanneroo

    My Wanneroo property was on a septic tank. Can that cause drain problems?

    It can. When a block is connected to sewer, the old tank and soakwell are meant to be decommissioned, but the pipes around them can still be in the ground. If your drain keeps blocking near where the tank was, a camera run shows whether the line is sagging, broken or still running somewhere it shouldn't.

    Who pays to fix a blocked drain on my Wanneroo block?

    Water Corporation says a blockage in your property plumbing is the owner's to fix, and a blockage in the sewer main, normally outside the property, is theirs. The camera shows us which side of that line it sits on. If we find it in their main, we call Water Corporation.

    Do I pay a call-out fee to get a price?

    No. We come out to Wanneroo and quote the job for free, with no call-out fee.

    Can I call outside business hours?

    Yes. 0499 281 430 is answered 24/7. Night and weekend work can be charged at a different rate from weekdays, so ask when you call.
