Blocked toilet or blocked sewer?

One blocked toilet can be local, but multiple slow fixtures or sewage smells can suggest a main sewer blockage.

What to check first

  • Check which fixture, pit or drain is affected.
  • Look for overflow, sewer smells, gurgling, slow drainage or signs of tree roots.
  • Note the suburb, property type, access and urgency before submitting the form.

When to request drain service

If the problem continues after basic checks, or if wastewater is backing up, stormwater is flooding or the issue keeps returning, submit the enquiry form with as much detail as possible.
