Cast iron sewer pipe descaling in Melbourne.

Heavy internal rust scaling was catching toilet paper and restricting flow inside this 100mm drain.

CCTV inspection confirmed the condition before we removed the corrosion using a spinning chain flail combined with high pressure water jetting.

Final CCTV inspection shows a smooth, restored internal surface.

Recurring blocked drains in older Melbourne homes are often caused by internal pipe corrosion rather than tree roots.

Upfront pricing before we start.
