A real person answers, day or night
When your drain needs rebuilding, not just one more temporary clear out
Clearing a line that keeps failing only buys time. Ring (02) 9072 0592 to reach a plumber who will camera the run, pin down why it keeps failing underground, and quote the repair that actually holds.

Re-grading is the honest fix
What our drainage work covers
Repair and installation cover far more than a single broken pipe, and each task below is one line item on a written quote you approve before a shovel ever moves:
Broken pipe repair
Where a clay or earthenware line has cracked, dropped or pulled apart in the shifting sand, we open only the failed length, cut back to sound pipe, and rejoin it with modern couplings that hold their alignment permanently once refilled.
Corrected drain falls
Resetting a line to an even, working grade is the answer where settlement has flattened its fall, so we lift the run, rebed it on stable base, and hand the waste back the slope that flat streets never quite provide.
New line installation
Adding drainage for a granny flat, a bathroom addition or a re-plumbed unit block means sizing and laying fresh pipe to code, tying it into the existing system, and setting inspection points where a camera can reach it later on.
Pit and gully work
Replacing a collapsed gully, resetting a sunken grate or building a fresh inspection pit gives the whole line the access it needs, which on cramped estate blocks turns a future clear into a quick, tidy job rather than another dig.

Common drain faults we repair
Recurring blockages
A drain that clears then blocks again within weeks is rarely a one-off, because a dropped joint or a belly in the sand keeps catching waste, and only re-laying that short section stops it returning each season.
Sunken or broken pits
A grate that has sunk below the paving or a pit whose walls have crumbled lets soil wash straight into the line, so silt builds where it should not and the drain slows long before anything visible blocks.
Poor original falls
Some estate lines never had enough grade to begin with, laid quickly across flat ground during the post-war build, so they have always drained sluggishly and need re-grading rather than yet another clear to run properly.
Why a proper drain repair pays off
A drain patched in a hurry comes back, and each return costs more than the last, so getting the line right first time protects the slab and the yard:

How the job runs, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0592 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Dig, re-lay and test
Digging opens only the length the camera condemned, and we re-lay it on fresh bedding to a checked fall, backfill and compact so the sand cannot drop it again, then flush the run to prove water flows clean away.

Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Hillsdale
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Hillsdale works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
Our repair vans run these drains past the estate too, through Eastgardens and Pagewood, into Matraville, across to Banksmeadow and over to Maroubra.
Good questions, straight answers
Drain repair questions locals ask
Why do drains on the estate keep failing after they are cleared?
Because the loose Botany sand lets a line settle and lose its fall over the years, so waste keeps banking up at the same low spot until that section is re-laid to grade.
Do you have to dig up the whole yard to repair a drain?
Almost never, since a camera pinpoints the failed length first, so we open only that short run and leave the rest of the lawn, path and garden completely undisturbed.
How do you decide whether to repair a section or re-lay the line?
The camera survey shows how much sound pipe remains, and if only a joint or short stretch has gone we replace that alone, saving the cost of relaying an otherwise healthy run.
Will I know the price before the digging starts?
Yes, you get one complete written price after the inspection and before any tool touches the ground, so the cost of the repair is settled well before work begins.
Can you install new drainage for a granny flat or extension?
We can size and lay a fresh line to code, tie it into your existing system and set inspection points, so the addition drains properly without overloading the old estate pipework.
Is the drainage work guaranteed?
Every repair and installation we complete carries our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so if a re-laid line ever moves or leaks on our workmanship we return and put it right at no cost.
