Kingsley is a 1970s and 1980s family suburb that has matured around its original estate layout, with established trees, settled streetscapes and the drainage profile that comes with forty years of normal household use. Drains Plus is a Perth drainage specialist, and this page covers how we approach work in Kingsley.
Kingsley sits within the City of Joondalup, which manages stormwater and kerbside drainage. The housing stock is overwhelmingly 1970s and 1980s, with infill activity adding newer single and dual occupancy homes over the past two decades. Soils across Kingsley are predominantly Spearwood sand. Original sewer lines on most homes are early generation PVC, with stormwater also in PVC. The mature street tree canopy and established private gardens are a significant factor in the local drainage profile, with verge and yard trees providing the conditions for root intrusion in older sections of line.
Root intrusion through aged PVC joints is the dominant single issue on older Kingsley properties. The typical sign is recurring blockages at the same fixture, with intervals between blockages getting shorter until the line is properly inspected and treated. We also see lines compromised by later works such as pools, paving and extensions, where the original drain run has been crushed or displaced during construction. CCTV inspection at the start of any recurring case identifies exactly what is happening so the right long term answer can be chosen.
Drains Plus operates from Greenwood, a short drive from Kingsley. For most call outs we can have a plumber on site the same day, and emergency call outs are covered around the clock. We are a single location business with a single Google profile, so when you book through us you are dealing directly with the team that will arrive at your address. Most blocked drain work is covered by our fixed price guarantee, and a free plumbing health check is included on every job. If we cannot clear the drain, our service is free.

If you are based outside these areas, our full service area covers the Perth northern suburbs across four local government areas.
It tells us exactly where the problem is, what is causing it, and what condition the line is in. Without a camera we are guessing on location and cause, which means more time, more cost, and potentially unnecessary excavation. With a camera we work straight to the actual issue.
For standard jobs we typically offer same day service. Emergency call outs are covered around the clock. Greenwood to Kingsley is a short drive.
In most cases yes. Pipe relining is a no dig solution that installs a new liner inside the existing pipe, sealing cracks and joints from the inside without excavation. Where the line is too damaged for relining, targeted excavation may be needed, and we explain the scope before starting.
High pressure water jetting uses water at controlled high pressure to scour the inside of the line, cutting through roots and removing built up debris. A standard drain clear with surface tools is suitable for soft blockages right at the fixture. For anything beyond the immediate fixture, jetting is far more effective and does not damage the line.
