What are the signs of a sewer line problem?
Common signs include slow or gurgling drains throughout the property, unpleasant smells, or wastewater backing up. If you're noticing several of these at once, it points to the main line rather than a single fixture, and it's worth having it looked at promptly.
How do you find the cause of a sewer issue?
We investigate before we repair. Rather than guessing, we work out what's actually causing the problem — a blockage, a damaged section, or root intrusion — so the repair addresses the real cause and the issue doesn't simply come back.
How is sewer line repair priced?
Sewer repairs vary depending on the cause and the location of the problem, so we assess it before quoting. Once we know what's involved, you get a clear, upfront quote. If anything changes once work is underway, we talk to you first.
Will repairing the sewer line dig up my whole yard?
Not necessarily. The amount of excavation depends on where the problem is and how the line is laid. We aim to keep disruption contained, explain what's involved before we start, and tidy up properly when the work is done.
Can you help if the problem keeps coming back?
Yes. Recurring sewer problems usually mean the underlying cause hasn't been addressed. We'll investigate properly and recommend a repair that fixes the root issue, rather than just clearing it again and waiting for it to return.
Do you handle sewer repairs for businesses?
Yes. Sewer problems are especially disruptive for businesses, so we plan the work to minimise downtime and get your premises operating again as quickly as possible. Call us and we'll talk through the situation.
Are you licensed for sewer and drainage work?
Yes. Sewer and drainage work must be carried out by a licensed plumber and drainer. M&W Plumbing holds a Queensland-certified plumbing and drainage licence (QBCC Licence 15010152).
