Homes in Sandyford and what that means for this job

Sandyford combines 1960s–1980s family homes with large modern apartment developments near the business district. Sandyford is in Dublin 18 and falls under Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown.

1930s–1960s homes commonly have clay pipes with mortar joints, where root intrusion and displaced joints cause repeated blockages. 1970s–1990s estates may have clay or early plastic drains, and gullies and shared runs block regularly with grease and wipes. Newer homes have plastic drains, but builders' debris, settlement and wipes still cause blockages.

What the fix involves and typical cost in Sandyford

High-pressure jetting to clean the full pipe bore.

Typical price: €150–€350 (indicative Dublin range incl. VAT). The final price depends on:

  • Location and depth of the blockage or damage
  • Equipment needed (rods, jetting, CCTV)
  • Excavation versus no-dig relining
  • Access, such as under driveways or extensions
