Persistent **Blocked Drains in Marlboro** & Sewer Line Inspections

**Clogged drains** are one of the most frustrating and common issues in Marlboro. Whether it’s a kitchen sink full of grease and food particles, or a slow-draining shower from a build-up of hair, we treat every blockage seriously.

For recurring issues, especially those affecting ground floor toilets or manholes, the problem often lies deeper. We utilise advanced **CCTV drain cameras** to inspect sewer lines for causes like:

• **Tree Root Invasion:** A common issue with older clay or ceramic pipes found in the area.
• **Fat and Grease Buildup:** Significant in both residential and commercial properties.
• **Pipe Collapses or Displaced Joints:** Due to ground movement or aging infrastructure.

Our solution includes high-powered **hydro-jetting** to completely scour pipe walls and restore full flow, preventing future blockages.

**Marlboro Plumbing FAQ** (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: How quickly can you get a plumber to my home in Marlboro Gardens?

A: For emergencies like a burst geyser or major water leak, we aim to have a technician dispatched and on-site in the Marlboro area within **45 to 60 minutes**, 24 hours a day.

Q: Why do I frequently get blocked drains?

A: In Marlboro, recurring blockages are often due to a combination of old piping and specific usage (like excess grease). We recommend a full **CCTV inspection** to check for tree root ingress or structural pipe damage, allowing us to implement a permanent fix rather than a temporary clear-out.

Q: Do you require a call-out fee for quotes?

A: We provide **transparent pricing**. We offer free, non-obligatory quotes for planned work (e.g., geyser installation, bathroom remodels). For emergency call-outs, a standard emergency fee applies, which is typically waived if you proceed with the repair.

Q: What should I do immediately if I have a burst pipe or geyser?

A: Your first step is to **turn off the main water supply** to your property at the municipal stopcock (usually near the boundary wall or meter) and immediately **switch off the geyser power** at your main electrical board (DB board). Then, call our emergency line.

Q: Are your plumbers licensed and certified to issue a CoC?

A: Yes. All Macramos Plumbers are fully qualified, insured, and registered with the Plumbing Industry Registration Board (PIRB), enabling us to issue legally compliant Certificates of Compliance (CoC) for new geyser installations and major alterations.
