If you live in Newton, you know this suburb is the heart of the Northeast’s Italian heritage—great coffee, amazing gardens, and solid homes.

At ABA Plumbing & Gas, we’ve been the trusted team for Newton families for over 15 years. Whether you’re near the Newton Shopping Centre or tucked away near the Campbelltown border, we know exactly what’s happening beneath your feet.

We aren’t a faceless franchise. We’re a team of 30+ professionals who take pride in being the ones people call when “the other guy” couldn’t fix it.

Blocked Drains Newton

The “Newton Clay” Struggle

The soil in Newton is notoriously “reactive.” It’s that thick, heavy clay that expands when wet and shrinks when dry. For the older homes in the area that still have earthenware (clay) pipes, this movement is a disaster. It causes the joints to pull apart just enough for a thirsty root to find its way in.

A Real Story from a Newton Job: We recently helped a family on Graves Street. They had a beautiful, paved outdoor area that they’d spent thousands on. Suddenly, every time they used the dishwasher, the drain outside the kitchen would erupt. They were terrified we’d have to rip up their paving.

We didn’t grab a shovel. Instead, we used our CCTV locator. We found the blockage was actually a “belly” in the pipe caused by the clay soil settling. Using our hydro-jetting system, we cleared the sediment, and then we performed a “patch” repair using trenchless technology. We didn’t have to move a single paver. The grandfather of the house even made our boys a coffee afterward—that’s the Newton hospitality we love!

Newton Blocked Drain FAQs

1. Why is my toilet gurgling when I have a shower?
It’s a classic sign that your main sewer line is partially blocked. Air is being pushed back through the pipes because the water can’t get away fast enough.
2. Are you open on public holidays?
Yes. We are 24 hours, 7 days a week. No matter when your plumbing fails, we’re ready.
3. Do you offer discounts for pensioners?
Yes! We have a lot of respect for our Newton seniors and offer genuine discounts on all our work.
4. Can you clear roots without digging?
In 90% of cases, yes. Our hydro-jetters cut through roots like a knife through butter.
5. How do I know if the blockage is in my pipes or the council’s?
We use our camera to find the “boundary trap.” If the blockage is past that point, we’ll tell you so you can call the council or SA Water and save your money.
6. What is a “hydro-jet”?
It’s a specialized machine that uses high-pressure water to scrub the inside of your pipes. It’s much more effective than the old “electric eels.”
7. Can I pay later?
We offer Interest-Free Payment Plans, so you don’t have to worry about the upfront cost of an emergency repair.
8. Why is my yard smelling like sewage?
It could be an overflowing “gully trap” or a cracked pipe underground. It’s a health risk, so call us on 08 8297 7637 as soon as possible.
