Drain Ninjas: Your Trusted Drain Unblocking Specialists

Have you ever experienced the nightmare of a blocked toilet that won’t flush properly? Or woken up to find your backyard transformed from a lush oasis to a smelly swamp due to a clogged drain? If so, you know just how disruptive and unpleasant blocked drains can be.

Not only are blocked drains unsightly and inconvenient, but they also pose serious health risks. Contaminated water from clogged pipes can spread illness-causing bacteria and create unsanitary living conditions. That’s why it’s crucial to address blocked drains swiftly and effectively – and that’s where Drain Ninjas comes in.

As Auckland’s trusted drain unblocking specialists, we have the expertise and equipment to quickly identify and resolve even the most stubborn blockages. Our team understands the importance of prompt, reliable service to minimise disruption to your home or business.

Signs You Need Professional Drain Unblocking

Blocked drains can manifest in various ways, causing inconvenience and potential health hazards. Watch out for these common signs that indicate you need professional drain unblocking services:

Slow draining sinks or showers
Toilets that won’t flush properly or back up
Foul odors coming from drains
Gurgling sounds in pipes
Overflowing Gully traps
Water pooling around drains or in your yard
Overflowing gutters or downpipes

If you notice any of these problems, don’t ignore them. A clogged drain will only worsen over time, leading to more extensive damage and costly repairs.

The Drain Ninjas Difference: Our Drain Unblocking Process

At Drain Ninjas, we use cutting-edge technology and proven techniques to quickly and effectively clear your blocked drains. Here’s what sets our drain unblocking services apart:

High-Pressure Water Jetting: Our state-of-the-art hydro-jetting equipment primarily used in our drain maintenance projects blasts through tough clogs with ease. The high-pressure water jets break apart and flush away debris, grease, and other obstructions, leaving your pipes clean and clear. For more stubborn blockages caused by tree roots, we attach a specialized root-cutting nozzle to our hydro-jetter, which effectively cuts through and removes roots from your pipes.
CCTV Drain Inspection: If a blockage persists after initial hydro-jetting or upon client request, we conduct a thorough CCTV inspection of your drains. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location and cause of the blockage and identify any underlying issues, such as damaged pipes, that may require repair. Our Certified Drainlayers can also quote to repair any faults we find.
Drain Snaking: For hard-to-reach blockages inside your property, our skilled technicians use drain snakes or augers to clear the obstruction. By accessing the pipe through a toilet, floor waste gully, or other internal entry point, we can restore proper drainage and prevent backups without the need for extensive excavation.
Safe and Eco-Friendly: Unlike harsh chemical drain cleaners that can damage your pipes and harm the environment, our drain unblocking methods are safe and sustainable. We prioritise the long-term health of your plumbing system and the planet.

At Drain Ninjas, we pride ourselves on transparent pricing with no hidden fees. The price we quote is the price you pay, with no unexpected additional charges.

Why Choose Professional Drain Unblocking Over DIY?

When faced with a blocked drain, it may be tempting to reach for a bottle of store-bought drain cleaner or try to tackle the problem yourself. However, DIY drain unblocking comes with significant risks:

Harsh chemicals can corrode your pipes, leading to leaks and more serious damage
Improper use of drain snakes can scratch or crack pipes
Without professional equipment, you may not fully remove the blockage, leading to recurring clogs

DIY attempts can push the blockage further down the pipe, making it harder to reach

In contrast, professional drain unblocking offers numerous benefits:

Fast and efficient removal of blockages, saving you time and hassle
Thorough cleaning of pipes to prevent future clogs
Identification and repair of any damaged pipes
Safe and environmentally-friendly methods
Expert advice on preventing blockages and maintaining your drains

Beware of Low-Cost $49 Drain Unblocking Services

You may come across ads offering drain unblocking for as low as $49, but it’s important to be aware of the details. These low-cost services often rely on plungers, which only provide a short-term solution and work in just a small amount of cases. Many blockages actually occur outside in the drainage system, not inside where plungers would be used. Even when plungers do work, they typically only offer a temporary fix, not a permanent resolution.

Companies offering $49 drain unblocking may charge extra for the use of a hydro flushing unit to unblock the line, a tool that is often necessary for effectively clearing blockages. At Drain Ninjas, we include hydro jet and auger use in our services at no additional cost.

When it comes to drain unblocking, it’s essential to choose a professional service that uses the right tools and techniques to get the job done right the first time. Opting for a low-cost, quick fix may end up costing you more in the long run if the problem persists or worsens.

Common Causes of Blocked Drains

Blocked drains can occur due to various factors, some of which may be out of your control. Understanding the common causes can help you take preventive measures and know when to call in professional help. The most frequent culprits behind blocked drains include:

Tree roots infiltrating pipes through cracks and joints
Buildup of hair, soap scum, and other debris over time
Flushing non-biodegradable items like wipes, cotton buds, or sanitary products
Accumulation of food waste, oil, and grease in kitchen drains
Broken or collapsed pipes due to age, ground movement, or poor installation

Regular drain cleaning and maintenance can help prevent many of these issues. At Drain Ninjas, we offer comprehensive drain maintenance packages tailored to your property’s needs. Our experienced team can identify potential problems early on and take proactive steps to keep your drains flowing smoothly.

The Drain Ninja recommendation of the month:

We recommend if having slow draining drains to get a CCTV inspection to check for issues and hydro-flushing to clear the lines for better visual on CCTV. This allows the problem to be solved before it becomes a bigger issue.
