Blocked Drains & CCTV Kedron

Tree-Root Intrusion in Kedron's Old Clay Sewer Pipes

Many Kedron homes, especially the character Queenslanders in the Avenues and low-set post-war cottages, still run on original earthenware and clay sewer pipes. The suburb's leafy streets and mature trees near Kalinga Park and the Kedron Brook corridor send roots searching for water, and they slip into the smallest joint or crack. Left alone, they form dense blockages and backups. We use CCTV to confirm root intrusion, then jet the line clear and recommend relining where the pipe is failing.

Stormwater & Drainage for Low-Lying Kedron Brook Streets

Properties on the Kedron Brook floodplain sit on Brisbane City Council's flood maps, and the record 2022 event showed how quickly the creek can reclaim low-lying streets and yards. Blocked or undersized stormwater drains make it worse, sending water back toward homes during the suburb's intense summer downpours. We clear stormwater pits, downpipe connections and underground lines so runoff moves away fast, helping protect Kedron homes when the next big storm rolls through.

CCTV Drain Inspections for Ageing Kedron Pipes

You can't fix what you can't see, and Kedron's mix of interwar and early post-war plumbing hides plenty of surprises underground. Our CCTV cameras travel through the pipe to show exactly where roots, cracks, sagging sections or collapses are, and how far along the line they sit. This means we target the repair precisely instead of guessing, which is ideal before buying an older Kedron home or planning relining rather than full excavation across an established garden.
