I had been having problems with a sewer blockage for some time now- my plumber initially came in and plunged the drain hoping the problem would be solved but it continued to be a problem when using my sink, washing machine, toilet, shower, dishwasher etc

It worsened over the past fortnight- down to very short showers and laundromat-ting! As my plumber was interstate, I thought I would wait for him- he had suggested that we dig up my backyard on his return.

However, in his continued absence, as the drain was about to overflow, I called 'The Drain Man' yesterday (Sunday) hoping that the equipment that firm uses (drain clearing machine, in drain camera with recording/locating equipment, water pressure jetter etc) would identify exactly where the blockage was... and hopefully find an alternative to digging up the whole or part my courtyard paving!

And the wonderful Luke found the problem today (Monday). He arrived within the allotted time and with the camera/water jetter equipment found the blockage occurred on my neighbor's property under a new artificial grass installation where a new pipe had blocked off my drain. Luke investigated next door, liaised with my neighbor and her plumber- beyond my expectations. It took 1.5 hours.

I am SOOOO happy with Luke's work and investigation.... and thrilled that my backyard won't be dug up. I celebrated with a 5 minute shower! Thank you Luke!

Approximate cost: $570.00
