Is water pooling around your feet in the shower instead of draining away like it’s supposed to?
Is the kitchen sink taking longer and longer to empty, until one morning it just… doesn’t?
A blocked drain rarely happens without warning, it usually gives you a few weeks of slow draining and odd gurgling noises before it finally gives up completely. If you’re already at that point, chances are you’ve tried a plunger, maybe some chemical drain cleaner from the hardware store, and now you’re wondering who you can actually trust to call. That’s where we come in.
Metro Jetting clears blocked drains across Melbourne every single day, blocked toilets, blocked kitchen drains, bathroom drains, laundry drains, and outdoor stormwater drains.
We’re not a general plumber who does drains on the side; clearing and repairing drains is our core trade, and it shows in how quickly we can pinpoint the actual cause rather than just pushing the blockage a little further down the pipe and hoping for the best.
Blast Jetting
High-pressure water jetting to completely clear blocked pipes faster and more thorough than rodding.
CCTV Inspections
For recurring or stubborn blockages, we run a camera through the line so you can see with your own eyes exactly what’s going on inside the pipe, cracks, root intrusion, bellying, and more before deciding on a fix.

FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions
Not sure which service you need? That is exactly what we are here for. Call our family-owned Melbourne team, describe what is happening and we will help work out the right next step.
Why does my drain keep blocking up even after I've cleared it?
Repeated blockages in the same spot almost always point to a structural issue rather than a simple build-up tree root intrusion, a cracked pipe, or a section of pipe that has sagged and creates a low point where debris accumulates. A CCTV inspection will show us exactly what’s causing it, so we can fix the real problem rather than just the symptom.
Is jet blasting safe for older pipes?
Yes, in most cases. Our technicians assess the pipe material and condition before starting and adjust water pressure accordingly, so ageing clay or earthenware pipework gets a thorough clean without unnecessary risk of damage.
Can you clear a blocked drain the same day I call?
In most Melbourne suburbs, yes we prioritise same-day service for blocked drains. For genuine emergencies such as overflowing sewage or flooding, our 24/7 line is staffed around the clock.
What's the difference between jet blasting and drain snaking?
Mechanical drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or retrieve a blockage, but it often just punches a hole through the obstruction without clearing the material stuck to the pipe walls. Jet blasting uses high-pressure water to scour the entire internal surface, which means it removes far more material and the clean lasts significantly longer.
Do I need a CCTV inspection or can you just clear the blockage?
For a straightforward first-time blockage, we’ll typically clear it directly with jet blasting. We’d recommend adding a CCTV inspection if the drain has blocked more than once in the same spot, if the blockage doesn’t respond the way we’d expect, or if you have older clay pipes or large trees near the line all of which suggest something structural may be worth investigating.
Can a blocked drain cause damage to my property if I leave it?
Repeated blockages in the same spot almost always point to a structural issue rather than a simple build-up tree root intrusion, a cracked pipe, or a section of pipe that has sagged and creates a low point where debris accumulates. A CCTV inspection will show us exactly what’s causing it, so we can fix the real problem rather than just the symptom.
RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL
Built for the job in front of you.
Every drainage problem has a context. In an older Melbourne terrace, the recurring blockage may be linked to ageing clay pipework or tree roots. In a busy Fitzroy kitchen, grease build-up and a missed maintenance visit can quickly disrupt trading. On a civil site, the priority may be exposing a service without damaging what is already underground.
That is why we ask questions before selecting equipment. A simple clear, a thorough jet blast, a CCTV inspection, pipe relining or excavation may each be the right answer in different circumstances. Our family-owned Melbourne team will explain the difference in plain language and help you choose an approach that matches the evidence.
