Got that sinking feeling when the water won’t drain? Blocked drains disrupt your day and can cause major hygiene issues. If you’re dealing with drainage issues in Coffs Harbour or nearby, don’t stress. Our advanced tech gets things flowing freely, fast and effectively.
Ever feel like your drains are staging a slow-motion escape act? That stubborn soapy puddle lingering in the shower, or the sink that seems to be hoarding dishwater like it’s liquid gold? These aren’t just household quirks. Left unchecked, these blocked drain disasters can turn your daily life into a soggy obstacle course, and nobody in Coffs Harbour has time for that!
Whether it’s congealed cooking fats, your morning coffee grounds or even ‘flushable’ wipes blocking your pipes, with our large fleet of 9 vehicles, we offer prompt service across the region, getting to you quicker when drains misbehave.
Here’s how Emerald Beach Plumbing, your licensed plumbers in Coffs Harbour, gets things flowing:
Our specialised CCTV cameras go deep inside your pipes. This lets us see the exact cause of the blockage, be it sneaky tree roots or a build-up of grease. Knowing precisely what we're dealing with means we can get on with proper blocked drain repairs straight away, choosing the right fix the first time.
For many tough blockages like grease or tree roots, our high-pressure water jetting blasts through the problem. This powerful technique restores full flow and helps prevent those annoying recurring issues. It's a surefire method for blocked drain clearing and often sorts out issues that other methods can’t.
Some blockages are extra stubborn. When faced with dense tree roots or solid objects that other methods can't shift, our electric eels come to the rescue. These powerful tools can manoeuvre around the bends in your pipes to cut through and remove even deep-seated problems.
It’s also worth remembering that regular plumbing maintenance can stop many drain problems before they even begin.

Blocked drains are a real pain! While our Coffs Harbour team is always ready to help with the tough clogs, a few simple habits can go a long way in stopping them from forming in the first place. We’re all about helping you avoid the drama!
As proud Master Plumbers Association NSW members, we like sharing good advice. Here are a few quick tips to help keep your drains flowing freely:
That’s a common one! Often, it’s a build-up of fats, oils and grease (we call ’em FOGs) mixed with food scraps. Over time, these solidify inside your pipes, a bit like cholesterol in an artery, leading to slow draining and eventually, a full blockage. Using a sink strainer and being mindful of what goes down can really help. If it’s already blocked, our CCTV inspections can see exactly what’s going on in there.
It’s amazing how persistent tree roots can be! They’re naturally drawn to the moisture and nutrients inside pipes. Even a tiny crack or a loose joint in your stormwater drain can be an invitation for fine roots to creep in. Once inside, they grow and expand, eventually creating a dense mat that traps debris and causes big ol’ blockages. This can lead to water pooling and even flooding around your property.
We always aim to be as tidy as possible! Our experienced plumbers use drop sheets and take care to protect your home or business. While clearing a serious blockage can sometimes be a bit messy by nature, we do our best to contain it and always clean up after ourselves. Our goal is to leave your place with clear drains and no leftover muck. For really urgent situations, you can find details on our emergency service here.
