Below are the most common household causes of blocked drains:
Blocked drains and pipes show obvious warning signs before the small problem becomes a huge nightmare and a big expense.

If you have a blocked sewer, stormwater, toilet or any other drain that doesn’t seem to go away, there’s probably a larger problem. With our CCTV technology we can identify exactly what the problem is by inserting a small camera attached to a cable. The camera & cable are able to reach the entire length of the drain to get to the root of the problem. From there we can figure out exactly what needs to be done without having to guess.

HydroJet works by inserting a flexible cable into the blocked pipe, water pressurized to 5000psi is shot through the nozzle attachment. The build-ups/blockages are completely removed by the HydroJet w tree roots are easily sliced through and the drain scoured clean. We offer hydrojet drain cleaning at affordable rates.

Blocked drains also lead to major cracks and damage in the pipes. We conduct a thorough check on the entire line, manually from the outside and using a CCTV camera from the inside. In case we do notice any damage to the drain pipe, we recommend that the specific portion be replaced. This saves you a lot of time and trouble in the long term and saves you a significant amount of money too. The Fawcett Group is the #1 sewer drain cleaners in Adelaide.

You know you're old when you're excited by a toilet replacement, but I seriously couldn't be happier with the job Elliot from Fawcett did in replacing our toilet system. Good communication, on time, fast turn around and I'm very happy with the product. Would recommendPosted on Jonathan Reid04/12/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt was very professional, proactive and a pleasure to deal with as he conscientiously diagnosed and cleared my drains.Posted on Bronwyn Munn01/12/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and knowledgeable group, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.Posted on Julie-Anne Ash29/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What great service we received from Fawcett Plumbing. Elliott was prompt, polite and very knowledgeable. He treated our house with respect - taking his boot off at the front door and cleaning up any mess that was made. He not only replaced our broken toilet which is the reason we called them out - but also unblocked our kitchen drain after I added into conversation “oh while you are here could you look at this too” Highly recommended.Posted on MattyGP25/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I genuinely don’t know what kind of magic Matt practices, but calling him a plumber feels like an understatement. This man is a waterflow wizard, a pipe whisperer, and possibly part superhero. From the moment he arrived, his professionalism and honesty were on another level. He didn’t just fix the problem, he practically transformed my plumbing into a work of art. His workmanship? Flawless. Meticulous. Surgical. I’m convinced he could install a tap blindfolded with one hand tied behind his back and it would still turn out perfect. Everything he touched looked and functioned better than new. He explains everything clearly, gives honest advice, and you can feel his integrity from the second he walks in the door. I’ve never met someone so committed to doing the job right. He doesn’t cut corners, he polishes them. He treats your home with respect, cleans up like he was never there, and leaves you wondering why every tradesperson in the country isn’t trained by him. Honestly, if Matt told me my house needed to be turned upside down for better water pressure, I’d hand him the wrench myself. That’s how much trust he inspires. If you’re looking for a plumber who’s reliable, honest, ridiculously skilled, and honestly just an all-round legend, stop scrolling. Matt is the one. He’s raised the bar so high other plumbers are going to need a ladder to reach it. Highest recommendation possible. Matt, you’re a legend. Keep doing what you do.
