Whether it's a collapsed sewer pipe under the lawn or a cracked joint causing an unpleasant smell near the house, our team brings genuine local knowledge to every job we attend.

Tanawha Plumbing & Drains handles everything from minor spot patch repairs through to full sewer line replacement for homes, shops and strata-titled properties throughout Tanawha and the wider Sunshine Coast. Our vans carry CCTV cameras, high-pressure jetters and relining equipment, so most sewer problems can be diagnosed and repaired in a single visit. From root damaged joints near mature trees to sunken pipes caused by shifting clay soil, we've seen it across local properties and know how to fix it properly.
If you've noticed a sewage smell, wet patches appearing in the yard or drains that gurgle after every flush, don't wait for the problem to worsen. Pick up the phone and speak with a local sewer plumber who understands the drainage conditions around Tanawha. We'll talk through what's happening, arrange a time to inspect the line, and provide a straightforward fixed-price quote before any work begins.
A broken sewer pipe rarely announces itself all at once. More often it starts small: a faint sewage smell near the boundary trap, a slow gurgle in the toilet cistern, or a damp patch on the lawn that never quite dries out. Left unattended, these small signs can point to a cracked sewer pipe, an offset joint, or tree roots working their way steadily into the line.
Older homes around Tanawha often still have original earthenware or ceramic sewer pipes, and these brittle joints are prone to cracking as the ground shifts with the seasons. Once water and waste start seeping into the surrounding soil, you can end up with a sunken sewer pipe, a sinkhole near the drain, or in more serious cases, an under-slab sewer repair beneath the dwelling itself.
Ignoring a sewer blockage or leak doesn't make it go away. It usually means a bigger repair job down the track, along with the mess and inconvenience of raw sewage finding its way into your yard, garden beds or under your home.
Rather than guessing at what's wrong, our sewer plumbers start every job with a proper CCTV drain inspection. This lets us map the exact location and condition of the damage before recommending a repair method, so you're only paying for the work your sewer line genuinely needs.
Wherever possible, we favour no-dig sewer repair methods such as relining and spot patch repairs over full excavation. It's less disruption to your garden, driveway or shopfront, and it usually means a quicker return to normal for your household or business.
