Why won't my toilet unblock?
A toilet that gurgles, drains slowly, or refills higher than usual is telling you something is stuck further down the line than a plunger can reach.
Blocks again within weeks
When the problem is past the bowl
If the same toilet blocks again within weeks, the problem is often past the bowl entirely. Tree roots growing into the sewer line, a collapsed section of pipe, or grease buildup further along the drain can all cause repeat blockages that look like a toilet problem but aren't. We diagnose stubborn toilet blockages with a CCTV drain camera before recommending a fix. That means you get a plan based on what's actually in your pipe, not a guess.
Blocked drains PerthHow we clear it
From your call to a permanent fix.
-
Call
Call 0499 281 430 and describe what's happening. We book a plumber in for the same day.
-
Camera
We run a CCTV drain camera through the line if the blockage doesn't clear with standard tools, so we can see exactly what's causing it.
-
Clear
Most blockages clear with a drain auger or hydro jet on the spot. For tougher blockages, including tree roots pressing into the pipe, we use the IMS Robotic Cutter.
-
Fix
If the camera shows a cracked, collapsed, or root-damaged pipe behind the blockage, we quote a permanent fix, usually trenchless pipe relining, before any further work starts.
Pricing
What a blocked toilet
costs to clear
We quote before we start, not after. If we can't clear it, you don't pay for the attempt, and we'll beat a written quote for the same job from another licensed Perth plumber.
| Job type | Typical cost | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| Straightforward blocked toilet clear | Quoted on site | Before any work starts. A drain auger or hydro jet, no camera work needed for most. |
| Damaged pipe or root intrusion | Quoted separately | We show you the CCTV footage and price the repair, you decide before we proceed |
| After-hours or weekend call | Ask when you call | After-hours and weekend rates can differ from weekday rates |
Typical Perth ranges, not a fixed price list. We confirm your exact price on site, before any work starts.
What changes the price
- Type of blockage
Grease and hair clear fast with a hydro jet. Roots or solids need cutting equipment first.
- Where it sits
A pipe under a slab, driveway or garden bed adds access time.
- Pipe age and material
Old clay or rusted galvanised pipe can need extra prep before the repair.
- Repair method
Relining avoids digging. A full dig-and-replace adds excavation and reinstatement.

Questions
Blocked toilet
questions
Still unsure? Call and talk to our team, not a call centre.
Cost
How much does it cost to unblock a toilet in Perth?
We quote a blocked toilet on site, before any work starts, and there's no call-out fee to quote. If a camera inspection shows a pipe repair is needed, we price that separately and you decide before any extra work starts.
Do you charge extra for an after-hours or weekend callout?
There's no call-out fee to quote. After-hours and weekend rates can differ from weekday rates, so ask when you call.
What guarantee do you offer on the repair?
If we can't clear the blockage, you don't pay for the attempt. And we'll beat a written quote for the same job from another licensed Perth plumber.
The problem
Can I try to fix a blocked toilet myself first?
A plunger can clear simple paper blockages. If the toilet refills high, gurgles, or blocks again within days, the problem is usually further down the pipe and a plunger won't reach it. Call us instead.
Why does my toilet keep blocking after I clear it?
Repeat blockages in the same toilet usually mean tree roots, a collapsed pipe section, or grease buildup further along the line. We run a CCTV drain camera to find the cause before recommending a fix.
What if the blockage is actually in my sewer main, not the toilet?
Our CCTV camera inspection identifies whether the issue sits in the toilet's own trap or further down in the shared sewer line, so you're not paying to fix the wrong section of pipe.
Getting it fixed
Is a blocked toilet with water rising an emergency?
Yes. Stop using the toilet and any fixtures on the same line, and call 0499 281 430. Our phones are answered 24/7 for exactly this situation.
