Blocked Drains in Pagewood, Cleared Properly

Privately subdivided from 1919 as the Monash Gardens estate, this suburb is still dominated by the post-war double-brick homes that followed, freestanding houses built solidly and built to last. More recently, new townhouses and the large apartment precinct on the old GM Holden manufacturing site near Westfield Eastgardens have filled in around them.

That older brick stock sits on sandy ground, and it shows up in the drains.

The sandy ground here works its way into a pipe wherever a joint has opened even slightly, packing in bit by bit rather than choking the line in one hit. It's a slow, creeping fault, and it's the single biggest reason a Pagewood drain that ran fine last month is suddenly running slow.

Add a shallow water table into the mix and damaged sections stay saturated, which only speeds the process along. Before anything's priced, the camera tells us exactly which of those it is, rather than us pricing off a guess.

Bunnerong Road runs the length of the suburb as its main spine, and the older brick homes set back off it and along Wentworth Avenue are typically where we find the original clay connections still doing the work.

Most jobs here fall into a fairly narrow band of work.

We call Botany home turf, and this pocket falls well inside the territory we cover every week, not somewhere we occasionally stretch to. Double-brick homes and the newer Meriton towers both turn up on our job sheet regularly, so nothing here catches us out.

$0 call-out fee and free quotes apply the same here as everywhere on our run, and the 1000+ five-star reviews we've earned come from streets just like these ones. Bayside Council covers this whole stretch, and we treat every corner of it identically.

There's no train line through the suburb. Bunnerong Road and Wentworth Avenue carry the bus routes linking it to the city, Maroubra and the shopping centre, and those same arterials make it a straightforward run for us too.

A call from a double-brick house off Banks Avenue or an apartment above Pagewood Green reaches us no slower than a job on our home turf.

1. Describe the problem when you ring. That's enough for us to know what gear to bring.
2. Arrival inside the guarantee. No estimate that quietly stretches out once we're booked in.
3. Look first, quote second. The camera decides the price, not a guess at the door.
4. A written price, then the work. You approve it before anything happens, and it holds after.
