Clear Blocked Drains Fast With High-Pressure Jet Blasting
Blocked drains are a hassle but fixing them doesn’t have to be. At Weekend Plumbing Co., our experienced team uses powerful jet blasting equipment to clear even the most stubborn drain blockages. Whether it’s built-up grease, silt, or invasive tree roots, our water jetting Brisbane service cuts through it cleanly and safely, without digging or chemicals.
We’re ready to assist homeowners across Brisbane Northside, Southside, and Moreton Bay.
Why Jet Blasting Is the Smart Choice
Unlike basic drain rods or harmful chemical cleaners, hydro jet rodding flushes the full diameter of your pipe clean. That means not only is the blockage removed but it’s far less likely to come back.
Here’s why Brisbane locals choose jet blasting:
- Thorough cleaning –Clears debris while scrubbing the pipe walls clean
- Chemical-free –Safe for your home, your pipes, and the environment
- Works on all pipe types –Residential, commercial, sewer, and stormwater
- Long-term savings –Prevents repeat blockages and emergency callouts
What Problems Can Jet Blasting Solve?
Using water pressurised to over 5000 PSI, our water jetting machines slice through all kinds of stubborn drain obstructions:
- Tree roots breaking into sewer lines
- Grease and fat hardened in kitchen drains
- Silt, soil, and leaf buildup in stormwater systems
- Foreign objects like wipes, toys, or hygiene products
- Scale and mineral deposits inside old pipes
Our technicians tailor the pressure and nozzles based on the pipe material and blockage type, ensuring safe and effective results every time.
How Does Jet Blasting Work?
Jet blasting (or jet rodding) uses a flexible hose and a specialised nozzle connected to a high-pressure water pump. The hose is guided down your pipe, and the nozzle blasts powerful streams of water backward, pulling itself deeper while dislodging debris in its path.
Paired with a CCTV drain inspection, we can see exactly where the blockage is, ensure it’s completely cleared, and check that your system is flowing freely before we leave.
Jet blasting is ideal for:
- Blocked sewer pipes
- Stormwater drainage issues
- Pipe maintenance in residential and commercial buildings
- Conduit and industrial pipe cleaning
It’s a fast, non-invasive, and environmentally responsible way to keep your plumbing in top shape.

Our Jet Blasting Process: Step-by-Step
To ensure the best results, we follow a thorough process for every job we undertake:
- Jet Blasting: We begin by clearing blockages with high-pressure water jetting to remove debris and standing water from your drains. This initial cleaning allows for better visibility and prepares the system for proper inspection.
- CCTV Inspection: Once the drain is cleared and flowing freely, we assess the condition of your pipes using CCTV cameras. With the blockage removed, we can get a clear picture to identify any structural damage, cracks, or defective sections that may need repair.
- Clean-up & Final Check: After confirming everything is flowing properly and identifying any issues, we clean up the work area, leaving your property spotless. If repairs are needed, we'll explain your options clearly.
Benefits of Professional Jet Blasting Over DIY Methods
While DIY drain cleaning solutions might seem tempting, they often lead to more harm than good. Here’s why professional jet blasting is the smarter choice:
- Effective on stubborn blockages: DIY methods often fail to clear severe blockages, especially those caused by tree roots or fat build-up.
- Safe and precise: We use the right pressure levels and tools for your pipes, ensuring the job is done right without causing damage.
- Long-term results: Jet blasting doesn’t just clear the blockage; it scrubs the inside of the pipe, leaving it less prone to future blockages.
- Non-invasive: Unlike traditional digging or snaking, jet blasting requires no excavation, meaning there’s less mess and no need to disturb your property.
Common Drain Problems That Require Jet Blasting
Some of the most frequent causes of blocked drains we tackle with jet blasting include:
- Tree root infiltration: Roots often break into pipes seeking moisture, causing serious blockages and pipe damage.
- Grease build-up: Grease and fat from kitchens accumulate over time, creating hardened clogs that require high-pressure cleaning.
- Foreign objects: Items such as wipes, nappies, and even toys can block drains, often leading to overflowing or slow drainage.
- Debris in stormwater systems: Leaves, dirt, and other debris can clog stormwater drains, especially after heavy rains.
- Corrosion or scale: Older pipes may accumulate mineral deposits that narrow the flow of water and cause blockages.
