Repair or Replace on Old Pipes
Most call-outs here start with one question: can the old line be saved?
The estates once marketed as Little Aspley filled fast through the late 1960s and 1970s, and that whole generation of earthenware house drains is now well into old age. A camera run settles the question.
What the footage shows
Where the pipe has cracked, sagged or shifted, and where roots and paper are catching while the flow still gets through.
When digging is avoidable
Damage under a driveway or courtyard can often be relined from inside, so the paving and gardens stay where they are.
What Blocks Drains in Strathpine
The suburb's drains fail in patterns, and knowing them saves you money on guesswork.
Earthenware branches going soft
The post-war estates went in with clay house drains whose joints have shifted and cracked over six decades, so roots and paper lodge in the same spots year after year.
Grease off the town centre
Fat from the restaurants, cafes and food outlets around Strathpine Centre runs into the mains serving the cinema and bowling complex, setting hard wherever the flow slows.
Creek and river flats
Four Mile Creek crosses Gympie Road beside the town centre, and the council's flood overlay blankets most of the suburb, so silted-up pits push stormwater back onto low lots in heavy falls.
Silt through wet ground
Terrace soils beside the two rivers hold water for weeks, and seepage through low joints drags fine soil into the pipe, which is why some chokes come back after every wet spell.
At the last census, 82.3 per cent of the suburb's 3,898 dwellings were separate houses, mostly owner-occupied, so most of this work sits behind private boundaries rather than in shared common lines.
Drain Services on the Run Here
Every job starts with finding the cause, and the right method depends on where the choke sits and what is in it.
- Blocked stormwater: pits, grates and surface lines that drown the low yards near the creek crossing.
- CCTV drain inspection: the camera run that settles the repair-or-replace question on an old earthenware line.
- Drain repairs: dig-and-replace or relining for cracked, root-struck and collapsed sections.
- Drain cleaning: jet blasting and electric eel work for grease-narrowed sewers and slow fixture drains.
The full list of what we clear, inspect and repair sits on the drain services page.

Strathpine Drain Questions
Call (07) 3067 4271Do the earthenware drains in Strathpine's older estates need replacing?
Not always. A camera run shows which joints have cracked or shifted, and often one damaged section is relined or replaced while the rest of the line keeps working, so you fix what is broken and nothing more.
Why does my Strathpine drain block again after every wet spell?
Groundwater in the river-terrace soil seeps through ageing joints and carries silt into the line, so a cleared drain can choke again once the ground saturates. Footage shows whether a repair would end the cycle.
Who pays for a blocked drain at my Strathpine property?
You do, for every pipe inside your boundary. The sewer main under the street belongs to Unitywater, and we point you to them if the choke sits on their side of the connection.
Can a grease-narrowed sewer near the Strathpine Centre be cleaned rather than dug up?
Usually yes. Jet blasting strips hardened fat off the whole pipe wall and restores the full bore, and a camera run afterwards confirms the line is clean before anyone talks about excavation.
What drives the cost of clearing a blocked drain?
Access, depth, pipe material, what is actually stuck in the line and whether footage would help pin the cause all feed into the quote, which you see and approve before any work starts.
