Blocked drains? We've got the solution. Professional drain cleaning across South Africa. Same-day service in most areas. Emergency response available 24/7.
Blocked drains are one of the most frustrating plumbing problems, affecting your entire household. Whether it's a slow kitchen sink, backed-up bathroom, or complete sewage blockage, Borehole Pros has the expertise and equipment to resolve it quickly and permanently.
We've unblocked thousands of drains across South Africa using advanced diagnostic equipment and proven techniques. Our team identifies the root cause—pun intended—whether it's accumulated grease, tree roots, or structural pipe damage. Once diagnosed, we apply the right solution to restore full drainage.
Many people attempt DIY drain cleaning with plungers, store-bought chemical drain cleaners, or drain snakes. While these might provide temporary relief, they often fail to solve the underlying problem. Harsh chemicals can damage pipes, and DIY methods might only clear the surface blockage while leaving the real problem deeper in the pipe system.
Professional drain cleaning gets to the root of the problem. We use high-pressure water jetting, drain cameras, and specialized equipment to clear blockages completely and inspect pipes for damage. This prevents the drain from backing up again in two weeks and saves you money on repeated repairs.
Professional drain cameras, high-pressure jets, and specialized tools. No guessing—we see exactly what's causing the blockage.
We don't just clear blockages—we identify and fix the underlying cause to prevent future problems.

Cooking oils and grease accumulate in pipes, creating stubborn blockages. Over time, grease hardens and reduces water flow.
Solution:
High-pressure hot water jetting dissolves grease and clears pipes completely.
Tree roots seek water and can penetrate sewage pipes, causing blockages and pipe damage. More common in homes with older clay pipes.
Solution:
Root removal with specialized equipment. May require pipe repair or replacement in severe cases.
Hair combined with soap residue creates blockages in shower and bathroom drains. Over time, layers accumulate and reduce drainage.
Solution:
Drain cleaning with camera inspection to ensure complete blockage removal.
Shifted or cracked pipes cause water to pool and debris to accumulate. Often results from ground settling or tree roots.
Solution:
Drain camera inspection reveals damage. May require pipe repair or relining.
Toys, sanitary products, or other objects accidentally flushed cause blockages. Most common in homes with children.
Solution:
Drain snake or camera retrieval. Obstruction safely removed without damage.
Hard water deposits calcium and minerals on pipe interiors, reducing flow over time. More common in certain areas.
Solution:
Descaling or chemical cleaning removes mineral deposits. Water softening recommended.

High-pressure jetting is safe when done by professionals who understand pipe conditions. We assess pipe age and material before jetting to prevent damage.
We don't recommend harsh chemical drain cleaners. They can damage pipes and are ineffective for serious blockages. Professional cleaning is safer and more effective.
Most homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years. Homes with tree roots nearby or recurring problems may need more frequent cleaning.
