Drain Kings / Frequently Asked Questions
Drainage questions.
Clear answers.
Helpful answers about blocked drains, inspections, jetting, rural drainage and arranging a visit.
What should I do if my toilet is backing up?
Stop flushing it and reduce use of affected fixtures. If wastewater is escaping, keep people and animals clear. Call and explain whether other fixtures are affected too.
Are you available after hours?
Yes. Contact Drain Kings 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The after-hours number is 06 324 8947. Discuss attendance and timing directly.
Do you provide prices on the website?
No fixed service prices are published here. Describe the location, symptoms and access so the team can discuss the job and how pricing will be confirmed.
Why does the same drain keep blocking?
Build-up, roots or pipe-condition issues are possible causes. Symptoms alone cannot confirm which applies. CCTV may help investigate accessible sections.
Do you offer camera inspections?
Yes. Drain Kings provides CCTV diagnostics for sewer and stormwater lines, with locating equipment. Access, obstructions and visibility determine how much of a line can be inspected.
Can I book an inspection before buying a property?
Yes. Discuss your deadline, the systems to be checked and any footage or written findings you need. Arrange vendor permission and property access.
Do you work on farms?
Yes. Rural services include effluent pipes, Novaflow and field drains, culverts, stock water lines and yard drainage. Confirm suitability for the particular line when enquiring.
What area do you cover?
The service region centres on Palmerston North and Manawatū. Include your suburb or town when enquiring so coverage and scheduling can be confirmed.
