Drainage in Merrimac
Sits between the Nerang River flats and the rise toward Worongary, so both stormwater surcharge and older sewer turn up here.
What blocks drains around here
Sloping blocks move a lot of water quickly. Stormwater pits and grated drains fill with leaf litter and silt washed down from above, then surcharge across the yard or back toward the house in a Gold Coast summer downpour.
How we approach it
Clearing the pit is the easy part. We jet the line through to the outlet and camera it, because on a sloped block a drain that keeps overflowing is often a crushed or root-filled section further down, not the pit you can see.
What we do in Merrimac
- Blocked Drain CleaningBlocked toilets, sinks, showers, sewers and stormwater cleared properly, not just poked through.
- High Pressure Drain JettingWater at pressure that scours the pipe wall clean, rather than boring a hole through the blockage.
- CCTV Drain Camera InspectionsStop guessing. A camera down the line shows you exactly what is in there and what shape the pipe is in.
- Drain RepairsWhen clearing it is not enough, because the pipe itself is the problem.
- Blocked SewerMore than one fixture backing up at once. This one does not wait.
- Stormwater Drain CleaningYard flooding, overflowing pits and water heading toward the house instead of away from it.
