Blocked Drains Kellyville

Blocked drain help in Kellyville

A lot of Kellyville’s housing stock is newer, so blockages tend to be debris, fat and silt build-up, or stormwater pits and detention tanks choked after landscaping and heavy rain, rather than failed clay lines. On the older acreage pockets and along established street trees, root intrusion still happens. A CCTV inspection tells us which it is before any repair call is made, so you are not guessing.

Kellyville grew quickly through the 1990s and 2000s into one of the Hills District’s largest residential areas, and that history shapes the drainage we see. Most homes are double-storey family builds on big blocks, plumbed with PVC sewer and stormwater rather than the brittle clay you find in older Sydney suburbs. The catch on these properties is the surface water system: long driveways, paved entertaining areas, pool surrounds and extensive gardens all feed into stormwater pits, charged lines and on-site detention (OSD) tanks that estates were required to install. After a Hills downpour, those pits and tanks overflow or surcharge when they silt up, leaves pack the grates, or a landscaping job has crushed or capped a line. Newer estates around the metro corridor add fresh fit-outs and renovations into the mix, where extensions and new bathrooms have been tied into existing runs. We camera the system first so you know whether it is a simple silt clear, a collapsed connection, or a detention tank that needs attention.
