Drainage Repairs and Installation Canberra
Do you need a new drain installed or your drains repaired? Dr Drains deliver results with reliable drain repair and installation services in Canberra and the surrounding areas.
Any plumbing system can be sorted into two categories, in short: services in and services out. Hot and cold water supply to your house and the drainage/sewerage system that takes waste away from your house. Drain pipes are a critical part of everyday life, even though we hardly ever think about them.
At Dr Drains, we offer exceptional drain services throughout Canberra, including drain repair so this means we can restore functionality to your sewerage system should you have a blockage or problem.
If you want the job done right, drain repairs should always be completed by a trained and certified plumber. DIY is simply not an option. Whatever the issue we can easily fix the problem.
Maybe your drains are blocked or you have noticed they may be leaking, either way give us a call and we will identify the true cause of the issue. Most of our work comes through recommendations and we actually provide support to some of the other plumbing companies in the area, so give us a call first to save yourself money.
So how do you know if you need Drain Repair?
No-one ever thinks about their drains until there’s a problem: maybe slow draining water or waste water that doesn’t drain away at all. Let’s discuss some of the signs that might suggest you need drain repair.
- Slow drain or blockage.
- Water takes a long time to drain from the sink or exterior drains.
- The sinks in the home or exterior drains are full and won’t empty.
Definitely give us a call straight away! This is almost always due to debris stuck in the pipes and often easily remedied. It could be that tree roots have grown into the pipe. It could be baby wipes are stuck in the pipe. Baby wipes are often flushed down the toilet and as they do not dissolve they cause a blockage. Occasionally, it could be that the pipe has collapsed but this is quite rare.
Strange/strong smell in the garden or home?
Again this could be a blockage but could also be a damaged pipe. Maybe the pipe has a crack in it and the waste is leaking into the ground around the pipe. Often the water will keep flowing but the waste seeps into the ground causing the smell.
Again it could be a collapsed pipe but whatever it is we can fix it and often without digging. We have ways of repairing the pipe from inside so that the water flows freely again and the smell subsides.

Honest and reliable service. Another plumber had quoted 10k for digging up and replacing pipes. Dr Drains came and reviewed the pipes and recommended a root treatment option that was much more affordable. Really appreciate the service!
Prior to undertaking work, Dr Drains explained with respect the issues and the variables in play; they didn't patronize or try to steam roll me; both Josh and Jeremy invested the time to allay my significant concerns on the situation; they minimized disruption to the dig site and damage to my yard when needing to get access to move digger through it / vegetation to access site. DD quoted at a competitive rate, and honoured that rate even after the job ended up being more complex than first appreciated. Followed up with job satisfaction, and informed me how to make a claim for reimbursement against Icon Water/ were supportive in ensuring they'd provide all necessary info for me to do so (including contacting Icon on multiple occasion to attend the site, when the issue was clearly on Icon's part of the sewerage line). Hope I'll never have to use them again; wouldn't hesitate to contact them if I do.
Dr Drains were great in isolating and fixing a blocked storm water pipe at my house. They also assisted providing information that resulted in the entire storm water line being cleared by council. They also followed up with me regularly to ensure that the blockage and additional works were complete. I would recommend their services without reservation.
