I had Aiden and Kieran come to my grandparents house to upgrade their switchboard and they were the most polite and handsome young men i have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I would highly recommend anyone in need of electrical services to ask for these two legends.
Phillip and Sean done a fantastic job reclining the broken pipes at my place (66-72 Dee Why Pde). They were efficient and very friendly compared to some of the other tradesmen we get working here. Couldn’t recommend them enough!

Phillip was friendly
Phillip and Sean came and relined some 100 year old terracotta pipes. They arrived right on time and finished earlier than they forecast. In addition to completing the work in a timely and efficient manner they had to juggle with parking here as there’s a construction site next door. They completed all tasks including cleaning up so that it looks like they have not been here ( although I have seen the photos of the relined pipe!) Many thanks. Andrew Butler
5 stars for Grant and Network! Professional, punctual, and did a great job installing our new hot water system. He explained everything clearly, left the area spotless and made sure everything was working properly before he left. He even helped remove a drain cover which was stuck that wasn't part of the job. Excellent service and highly recommended! Thank you Grant and Network!
I’ve been using the team from Network for several years now. My go-to One Stop Shop for all my electrical and plumbing needs. Today’s job was relatively minor but Tom was - as always - on time, friendly & courteous, skilled and efficient. He got the job done and even added on the installation of a smoke alarm I’d been putting off for months. All for a more than reasonable price. Would definitely recommend.
Tristan was great. Very friendly and very prompt in fixing our aircon system. Highly recommend thanks
Phillip Shaun and Tom Drain work efficiently completed. Surrounding area cleaned up properly. All staff over the two days very polite and hardworking.
Very happy with work done by Spencer. Thorough, knowledgeable and thoughtful. Highly recommend.
On time and very efficient service from Sandro. Who took time to explain what he was doing and reported any problems, if any, on his safety check. We now feel more comfortable with our gas heater. We will be using this company again.
Thank you Spencer and Ethan for a fantastic job in identifying the major problem with my kitchen drain. This is now a permanent fix and no more drainage problems in future.

Ollie and Joey did an amazing job for us - quick efficient and left the place spotless! Thanks boys
My family home had some drainage issues where some weird gurgling sounds would threaten to bubble out through the drain when we flushed a toilet, took a shower or used the sink in the bathroom. We thought it was a blockage and bought a plunger to dislodge whatever was blocking the drain. Didn't work, google lied to us. One night, when my sister took a shower the drain decided to surprise the family with an indoor swimming pool where the water pooled out from the laundry and bathroom drains filling up both floors and out to our hallway, yay! Since it's closer to winter and not ideal conditions for swimming, we had to return this surprise gift and mopped up the water. We called Network Plumbing, Terry Hills because of their good reviews and they sent 4 of their best: Joey, Shaun, Luke and Jordan. They stuck a camera through the pipes, took pictures and diagnosed the problem with ease. Turns out the tree outfront was thirsty and wanted to steal some water from us by puncturing 2 of our pipes. The 4 did a brilliant repair job, and were quick and efficient with great senses of humour. They do a final inspection this coming Monday, but for now there is no more gurgling and everything is working as they should! Huge thanks to Joey, Shaun, Luke and Jordan!
Brad was lovely in his manner, and kept us informed of what was needed to be done/fixed along with pricing before starting the work. A very comfortable person to have in our house and the job was completed the same day. Will definitely call this business again and recommend the services
Tristan was very help. He cleaned an serviced my air conditioners very thoroughly. He is friendly, kind and professional.
Job done by Phillip,Monty and Daniel was done very quickly and professionally. Very happy.
Kieran and Aidan were very efficient and tidy workers, Kieran even took his work boots off before entering the bedroom ensuite. They double checked everything before they left and we were very happy with the switchboard upgrade.
Shaun and Phillip arrived right on time. Worked in the rain over several hours to repair my damaged sewer pipes. 2 very nice fellows, polite and friendly. Phillip kept me updated with what they were doing throughout the morning. I am always impressed by the work and reliability of the staff of Network Plumbing who I have been using for many years. Phillip and Shaun were a pleasure to deal with and assured me that I would have no further problems with my pipes.
Nathan was excellent. All plumbing work carried out was first class.Nathan explained our options clearly and was not pushy in any way. I will be using them again in future.
You only know your heating plumber is good when it all goes to custard. Every time I have had to call for emergency support, I am greeted courteously, fast and get a visit the next day. That is a level of reliability you want . Thank you
Cameron and Taison are the best would recommend any time.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have more burning questions about leaking taps, a blocked toilet or your plumbing system? Here are some plumbing solutions.
At Network Home Services, our experienced plumbers follow a comprehensive and proven process to unblock your toilet safely, effectively, and with minimal disruption. Every step is performed with precision using industry-approved materials, tools, and techniques that protect your systems and restore your bathroom to full working order.
1. Initial Inspection & Assessment
We start by carrying out a visual and CCTV drain inspection of your toilet plumbing, connected drains, and nearby pipes. This allows us to accurately locate the blockage and determine its severity. Using specialised cameras, our licensed plumbers can see deep inside your drainags, helping us identify whether the issue stems from foreign objects, tree roots, grease build-up, or a collapsed pipe.
We also check the condition of your toilet installation, flush mechanism, and sewer line connections to rule out other possible causes.
2. Identifying the Root Cause
After locating the exact location of the problem, we diagnose the root cause behind the blockage. Our team looks for indicators such as:
- Excessive toilet paper or sanitary items lodged in the drain
- Tree roots are infiltrating cracked or damaged pipes
- Food waste or grease buildup from connected kitchen sinks
- Foreign objects accidentally flushed down the toilet
- Structural issues within the pipes or sewer line
3. Selecting the Right Solution
Once we understand the cause, we select the best solution for your particular situation. This may include:
- Manual plunging using heavy-duty commercial plungers for simple blockages.
- Toilet augering (drain snakes) for deeper clogs caused by waste or soft obstructions.
- Hydro-jetting for tough blockages caused by tree roots, grease, or compacted debris within your sewer line or drains.
4. Using Professional-Grade Tools & Materials
We rely on professional-grade tools and materials to ensure every job is completed to the highest standards. Our vans are fully equipped with:
- Commercial-grade plungers for fast and efficient manual clearing.
- Flexible drain rods and toilet augers to reach deep blockages.
- Hydro-jet pressure hoses capable of blasting through tree roots and build-up.
- Eco-safe cleaning agents that dissolve waste without harming your pipes or the environment.
- CCTV drain cameras for inspection before and after cleaning.
5. Thorough Testing & Flushing
Once the blockage has been successfully removed, we perform multiple testing and flushing cycles to confirm that the toilet and drainage are functioning properly. We check that the bowl fills and flushes efficiently, that the water drains at the correct rate, and that no residual debris or partial blockage remains in the system.
6. Preventive Maintenance & Customer Guidance
After every repair, our friendly team provides preventative advice to help you avoid future plumbing problems. We may recommend:
- Scheduling routine maintenance or drain-clearing services.
- Avoid flushing non-biodegradable materials like wipes, tissues, and hygiene products.
- Use gentle, eco-friendly cleaners to prevent buildup in your drains.
- Installing drain strainers or toilet guards to prevent foreign objects from entering the system.
7. Reliable Results, Every Time
Our process ensures every plumbing issue is handled promptly and professionally. We don’t just provide a quick fix; we deliver reliable solutions designed to protect your plumbing systems and prevent repeat blockages. With years of expertise, the right equipment, and a commitment to excellence, we guarantee your bathroom will be back to normal quickly, hygienically, and affordably.

No! Our plumbing services are so much more than dealing with toilet drain problems.

Network Plumbing is at the forefront of plumbing technology. We no longer rely on a drain snake but regularly use a high-pressure water jetter instead. The drain snake is an older technology, and there are much better and more effective options available now.
Why? Easy… the power of water is all we need. We can successfully clear your drains by removing dirt, sand, grease, roots and debris with the power of a high-pressure water jetter.
In most cases, hot water systems are not affected. Unless it’s your water supply line that has been blocked and no longer delivers cold water into your plumbing system.
If you have any concerns about hot water systems or blocked drains, please call our team.
Our Wollongong plumber is here to offer their expertise in drain clearing solutions to fix those clogged drains. Whether it’s a build-up of grease, years of hair, food scraps, or root growth. These obstacles can slowly compile, resulting in a blockage in your sewer system but our professional plumber can handle it. This is something that a DIY drain cleaner or a coat hanger won’t be able to fix & it’s time to call in the professionals.
If tree roots are causing your toilet to block, then our plumber will know what to do! We can identify exactly where the issue is and our plumber will show you and let you know what the next steps are to resolve to issue. This will generally be cleared using a high-pressure water jetter. If there is any damage to the pipes that is discovered then we can advise on the best method of repair for that pipe.
Sometimes, a blocked toilet is just a warning sign that there may be bigger issues going on under the surface. Blocked drains are one of the most common occurrences in your plumbing service. With wild and random weather, as well as hot summer conditions, Wollongong has seen a rise in blocked drains… we have seen a rise in jobs to investigate and fix blocked drains.
But what causes blocked toilets or a blocked drain?
- Too much toilet paper being flushed down the toilet
- Hair, wipes or other foreign items
- Damaged or broken pipes
- Misaligned pipes
- Tree root intrusions
- Sanitary items or toys
We have seen it all when it comes to blocked toilets and plumbing. We have found a wide range of items and reasons for a pipe to become blocked, but don’t worry – our professional plumbers will be able to find out what is causing your toilet woes.
Whether it’s at your house or workplace, our blocked drains plumber can carry out a thorough job inspecting the toilet or drains and carry out a CCTV inspection with a full report and plumbing solution for you.
If you have a toilet drain that appears to be blocked and are wondering how to fix a blocked toilet, a homemade drain cleaner is probably not going to be able to fix the problem. Hot water or boiling water alone will not be enough for unclogging toilets.
It might be tempting to try to fix a clogged drain in the bathroom sink with a wire coat hanger or pour homemade drain cleaner of baking soda and vinegar to unclog a toilet. However, you may be causing more damage than good. The best first step would be to use a toilet plunger (if you have one). And for stubborn clogs, call us right away before the problem gets worse or starts to flood your home.
