Our Root Removal Process

Call Us

Phone us or book online. Because a blocked sewer can cause property damage, we prioritize root intrusion calls and aim for same-day service in Penrith.

Camera Inspection

We don't guess. We send a CCTV drain camera down your pipe to locate the exact tree root mass, measure the blockage, and check for cracked pipes.

Why Penrith Trees Love Your Pipes

Many established suburbs in the Nepean region, like South Penrith, Kingswood, and Emu Plains, feature large native trees and older homes built with terracotta or clay sewer pipes. As these pipes age, the ground shifts, causing tiny hairline cracks. Tree roots are naturally drawn to moisture, warmth, and nutrients. Once they sense a tiny leak from a cracked joint, hair-like roots force their way inside. In a short time, they grow into a massive, dense web that acts like a net, catching toilet paper and waste until the pipe completely blocks. Signs you have a root intrusion:

Gurgling sounds coming from your toilet, shower, or basin
Water draining noticeably slower than usual
Foul sewage odors wafting from your yard or floor wastes
Toilets filling up to the brim before slowly dropping
Unusually lush, green patches of grass in a specific part of your lawn

Attempting to plunge a root blockage will not work. Our **high-pressure water jetters** cut the roots away, and our **pipe relining** services seal the pipe from the inside so the roots can never return.

Jane Wills

Had a kitchen tap that wouldn’t stop dripping no matter how hard I turned it off. Called GPS Gas Plumbing Services and they booked me in the same day. He replaced the worn-out washer, tightened everything up, and even checked the other taps in the house to make sure they were fine. Really tidy job — left the bench clean and dry. Happy with the service.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Roots

We use a high-pressure water jetter. It features a specialized cutting nozzle that blasts water at over 4000psi, slicing the roots into tiny pieces and washing them down the main sewer line safely without damaging the pipe.

Clearing roots with a high-pressure jetter generally costs between $180 and $350. However, if the blockage is deep or extensive, it may take longer. We always diagnose the issue first and provide a fixed quote.

Yes. Jetting removes the current blockage, but because the crack in the pipe still exists, roots will return looking for water (usually within 6-12 months). To stop them permanently, we highly recommend pipe relining.

Not usually! With trenchless pipe relining, we can create a new, impenetrable pipe inside the old one. This seals out the roots completely, meaning you can keep your beautiful trees without sacrificing your plumbing.

If the terracotta pipe has completely collapsed, relining won't work. In these cases, we offer targeted excavation to dig up the crushed section and replace it with durable PVC piping.

The most common signs are gurgling noises from the sink when you flush the toilet, water draining very slowly, bad smells outside, and the toilet water level rising high before slowly dropping.

Yes! Tree roots can cause raw sewage to back up into your home at any time. We offer 24/7 emergency drain clearing services across Penrith and the entire Nepean region.

Store-bought drain cleaners won't touch tree roots. After mechanically clearing the roots with our jetter, we can apply a professional-grade foaming root inhibitor that kills remaining root hairs, but the best permanent fix is relining.

Absolutely. While root issues are more common in older suburbs like South Penrith and Kingswood, we also service Glenmore Park, Jordan Springs, and Caddens for all drainage and plumbing needs.
