Surry Hills Blocked Drains was the BEST and AMAZING. I called today after 9am to install the ceiling fan and check the switch board, 2hrs later Chris and Luca arrived. They advised what they can do. As soon as I agreed to the price they started the work. They were both professional, efficient, friendly and did a fantastic job. They tested everything to make sure everything is working fine and they took all the rubbish, no mess at all. I will 100% recommend them to everyone I know.
We recently had the pleasure of having an amazing team come to our home to install four ceiling fans and downlights in our bedrooms, and we couldn't be more impressed with their work. David and his colleague (unfortunately, we didn’t catch his name) were both incredibly professional, friendly, and efficient. They arrived on time, worked quickly, and paid close attention to every detail, ensuring everything was installed perfectly.
Very happy with the customer service and quality of their work. They turned up on time and fully quoted in advance. It was a pleasure to do business with Chris & Luka.
Clean, friendly and respectable. Great with pets and reliably on time. They obviously take pride in there work and I appreciate the honesty and work they have performed. 1 new ceiling fan + 3 replaced and a fan light in the bathroom replaced. Replaced the circuit board on the house and brought it into the modern era with safety switches I thought we had but didn't. I will definitely use these guys again and recommend highly to any one looking for a good sparky!
Surry Hills Blocked Drains have just finished up after a meter-box replacement and some rewiring to replace some old-style cloth wrapped cabling. They've done a great job, were really friendly and helpful, and left everything clean and tidy. They didn't even mind our dogs "helping".
David & Chris were extremely professional and quick, given they came down immediately on a 40 degree day to sort out our power issues. They not only corrected the issue extremely quickly, but explained their steps and pricing (which was the fairest of 4 local quotes). In addition, they physically showed what the problem is and tested it in front of us. Brilliant service provided by the guys. I would highly recommend.
I am happy with the work completed and the total price was very reasonable. I gave them a huge list of jobs that I needed done and they smashed it out in one day. The guys were friendly and respectful, and they left the house clean when they were done. The admin side was very prompt and organised, I'll be using them again.
Timely booking process and good communication. The electrician arrived on time and did a great quality ot work and explained everything well.
We had a bathroom exhaust fan replaced. Chris was very professional and sourced and replaced the fan within a short period of time at a good price. Will be using these guys again if needed.
The job was completed well and the guys who did it were friendly helpful and skilled. Only problem was that it cost a lot more than expected.
On time, great knowledge and expertise and found ways to make the work done as affordable as possible. Also took the time to quickly check out non-related electricals to make sure everything was safe!
Chris and Luka were absolutely fantastic, and we couldn't recommend them enough. They were very professional, efficient and diligent, while showing care to explain things in detail. Thanks again Chris and Luka!
A+ service from Chris and Luca of the Surry Hills Blocked Drains team, from coming out to do free quote, to giving us breathing space to explore our options to completing job; nothing but first class professionals. The boys did an amazing job of explaining our options from interest free finance, to explaining throughout the day what was being done. They were on-time, polite and did a solid clean before leaving.
The electrician were punctual, kept us informed about what they are doing, cleaned up after, took the old rangehood, explained the new one and guaranty, were friendly and kind.

Answers to Common Questions
FAQs About Blocked Sewers
Still have questions about our blocked sewer services in Surry Hills? Check out these frequently asked questions or reach out to our team for professional guidance. We’re here to help you understand your plumbing issues and determine the most effective solution.
Blocked sewers in Surry Hills are commonly caused by tree root intrusion, especially in older areas with mature trees and clay pipes. Other common causes include flushing inappropriate items like wet wipes and sanitary products, buildup of fats and grease from kitchen waste, foreign objects, collapsed or damaged pipes, and sediment buildup over time. Early intervention is key to preventing minor blockages from becoming major problems.
Clear signs of a blocked sewer include multiple drains backing up simultaneously, gurgling sounds from toilets or drains, water backing up in unexpected places (like shower water rising in the toilet), foul odours coming from drains, and slow-draining fixtures throughout the home. If you notice sewage backing up into outdoor gully traps or indoor fixtures, this indicates a serious blockage requiring immediate professional attention.
Professional plumbers use a range of specialised equipment to clear blocked sewers effectively. These include CCTV drain cameras for visual inspection and precise location of blockages, high-pressure water jetters that blast away obstructions while cleaning pipe walls, mechanical augers (also called drain snakes) for cutting through and retrieving blockages, and root cutters specifically designed to remove invasive tree roots. For damaged pipes, we may use pipe relining equipment to create a new pipe within the existing one.
The time required to fix a blocked sewer depends on several factors including the severity and location of the blockage, the condition of your pipes, and the required solution. Simple blockages might be cleared within an hour, while more complex issues involving pipe damage or extensive root intrusion may take longer. At Surry Hills Blocked Drains, we offer same-day service for emergency situations and provide clear timeframes after diagnosing your specific issue.
Yes, you can reduce the risk of sewer blockages by being mindful of what goes down your drains. Avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper, never pour fats or cooking oils down sinks, install drain guards to catch hair and debris, and consider regular preventative maintenance including periodic professional cleaning for properties with known risk factors like nearby trees. For properties with recurring blockages, we can recommend more permanent solutions such as pipe relining or strategic repairs.
