Gully Trap Unblocking in Napier & Hastings
Fast, Clean & Professional Gully Trap Clearing Across Hawke’s Bay
A blocked gully trap can overflow suddenly — flooding your paths, soaking your section, and sending smells back toward your home. In many cases, it’s also a warning sign of a deeper sewer or wastewater blockage.
Only Drains specialises in fast, precise, and hygienic gully unblocking across Napier, Hastings, Havelock North, and the wider Hawke’s Bay region.
We use hydro jetting, kinetic air guns, and professional drainage tools to restore full flow — safely and without mess.
What Causes a Gully Trap to Block?
Common gully trap blockages include:
- Leaves, dirt, and outdoor debris
- Food scraps, fat, and grease from kitchen wastewater
- Mud, silt, and stormwater sediment after heavy rain
- Tree roots entering the outlet pipe
- Soap scum, hair, and internal wastewater build-up
- A blocked main sewer line backing up into the gully (very common)
Whatever the cause, we diagnose the problem quickly and remove it using specialist equipment.
How We Unblock Gully Traps
We inspect the gully trap, outlet, and surrounding line to confirm whether the blockage is local or deeper in the sewer line.
Depending on the obstruction, we use manual removal, hydro jetting, kinetic air guns, or root-cutting tools to clear the line properly.
We flush the outlet pipe to restore full flow and prevent immediate re-blocking.
We provide simple, practical advice to help keep your gully free-flowing long-term.
