   #2Sewer Surgeon for 24/7 blocked drains and pipe relining

   24/7Licence publishedBased in Croydon

   Sewer Surgeon is based in Croydon, and Ashfield is one of the suburbs it names. Call 1300 734 677 at any hour for overflowing drains, backed-up sewers or sewage rising through the shower. The team clears blockages with hydro-jet cleaning and robotic cutting, uses an electric eel for some minor blockages, and checks the inside of the pipe on camera before choosing a repair. It also takes tree root removal and stormwater drainage jobs. Licence 296406C is the one it lists. A gas leak should go to the gas supplier's emergency line instead.
