Blocked Drains and Sewers

Blocked drains are unfortunately a common and highly inconvenient plumbing issue. Blockages in pipes may be caused by any number of problems - including tree root incursion, grease, hair, or other built up debris.

Chivers Plumbing specialise in clearing blocked drains, blocked sewers, and blockages in storm water systems. We use the latest drain technology, including CCTV drain cameras to locate and identify the blockage, high-pressure jet water blasting, "no dig" pipe relining, specialised root cutting tools, and we have a range of excavation equipment to service any size job.

We take a solution based approach to resolving all plumbing issues. Using advanced diagnostic methods, we will find the cause of the blockage and provide a permanent solution. We offer a fixed-price quotation on full repairs and our work is of course guaranteed.

Signs of a blocked drain or sewer may include:

  • unpleasant smells
  • a gurgling or slow clearing toilet or drain in your sink, basin, bath, or shower
  • sewerage overflow
  • waste water appearing in your sink, basin, tub, or shower

10/10

I contacted Jordan late on a Sunday afternoon after our hot water system started leaking.
His response was 10/10. He video called me so that he could get a visual on the issue and the system. Was here within 40 minutes and an hour later we had a new hot water service up and running.
Jordan was incredibly efficient and lovely to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend W L Chivers Plumbing. They'll be my go to from here on.
Thank you Jordan

Very reasonable pricing

Oh my gosh, such a great and reliable company. After a failed DIY tap change, because it was so old, I had to call in the expert to get these very old taps fixed up. Someone attended to it the following day. What a relief and to top it off, very reasonable pricing as well. Mitch and Dave, both are so easy to talk to about my plumbing issues. Definitely give these guys a call and will recommend them in a heartbeat. No question. Thanks gents.

Unbelievable service

We discovered that my mother's hot water service was gone on the Friday morning before Easter - a public holiday. We called Jordan at 9am, he was at the house ten minutes later, and the unit was replaced by 10.45. Unbelievable service. Highly recommend. Prompt, professional, no hassle.

Kicking Goals

A company who answered the phone, replies to quotes and turns up. You're kicking goals with that alone. But sending a great guy who can talk you through the job and explain everything makes this a six star review. Will recommend and use again. Thank you.

Faultless Attitude; Excellent Work

We contacted WL Chivers with the challenge of totally blocked storm water drains. Jordan and his trusty team (Thomo, Angus and Lachie) were quickly on the job and worked tirelessly until the situation had been resolved. Their attitude was faultless and their work was excellent. They were a pleasure to have on-site. We cannot recommend this company highly enough.

Straight down to business

Daniel arrived with in 1.5 hours of our call and was straight down to business. He cleared out the blocked drain very efficiently. He was very thorough ensuing the blockage was completely cleared and even cleaned the back yard. Would recommend this service.

A Better Solution

Highly recommend. Turned up on time. Found a better solution to the old hot water tank that needed replacing and did the work promptly and made sure everything was cleaned up. Really easy to work with too. Will definitely give Chivers a call again for any plumbing work I need done.

Absolute Stars

These guys are absolute stars! I awoke this morning with no hot water, gave Chivers a call, and by the afternoon the old tank was out and the new one was in, with a professional team doing top quality work. I have relied on them for years, whether replacing toilet tanks or fixing a dripping discharge gasket, I've always had top service.

Precisely On Time

Can't praise Blake enough - arrived precisely on time, did the repair without fuss, checked that there was not likely to be a leak elsewhere in the system and ensured all taps were running before he left. Have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company - couldn't have asked for more.

The Best Choice

Jordan and his team are very efficient, professional and strong work commitment to help me locate the inspection shaft which has been hidden under the bluestone wall. It is a really tough and time consuming work, but they made it and resolved my blockage issue. If you look for a good plumber who are with rich experience, care and accountability, WL Chivers Plumbing is the best choice.

Go-to Plumbers

Sewage blockage: Mitchell today did a great job, gave honest appraisal & clear explanation of the problem which he fixed & we have a forward plan for future maintenance over future years which we greatly appreciate. I heard about Chivers years ago from a friend. I now know why they were so highly recommended. They'll now be my "go to" plumbers always, for all jobs.

Burst Pipe Repaired

Called them at 4pm on a Sunday with a burst rusted out pipe in my front garden. Kyle was at my house by 5pm, they couldn't fix the issue immediately (due to no fault of theirs), but was back by 10am this morning, fixed and water back on. I cannot fault the service, highly recommend this company.
