Wollongong's Go-To Service Team

A blocked drain doesn't wait until business hours — and neither do we. Reactive's drain specialists arrive with high-pressure water jetters, CCTV cameras and electric eels on board, so the right tool is always ready. We clear the blockage, then send a camera down to find the cause — tree roots, broken pipes, build-up or collapsed lines — and quote a permanent repair before we leave. You'll see exactly what we see.

Spot the Warning Signs

When Should You Call Us?

Slow Draining Sinks

Gurgling sounds and water pooling around the plug usually mean a partial blockage building up — clear it before it backs up.

Toilets Backing Up

If flushing one fixture affects another, the blockage is downstream in the sewer line. Stop flushing and call us immediately.

Foul Smells Outside

Sewer odours around the yard often point to a cracked or root-invaded line. CCTV will pinpoint the exact location in minutes.

Overflow After Rain

Stormwater backing up onto the property is a sign your downpipes or pits are blocked. We jet-blast and inspect on the spot.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

+How fast can you clear a blocked drain in Wollongong?

Same-day in almost every case, and within the hour for emergencies. Call 0485 825 386 and we'll dispatch a drain specialist with a jetter and CCTV camera on board.

+Do you use a CCTV camera to inspect the drain?

Yes — after clearing the blockage we run a CCTV camera through the line, show you the footage and pinpoint the root cause (roots, cracks, collapses or build-up) before quoting any repair.

+Can you clear tree roots without digging up my yard?

In most cases, yes. We cut roots with a high-pressure jetter and can then reline the pipe using no-dig pipe relining, avoiding costly excavation.

+Do you charge a call-out fee?

No call-out fee when we do the work. You get a fixed price quote before we start, so there are no surprises.

+Do you handle stormwater blockages too?

Yes — blocked stormwater pits, downpipes and sub-surface drains are all part of our service across Greater Wollongong.
