Homes in East Wall and what that means for this job

East Wall has compact Victorian and early 20th-century terraced cottages close to the docklands, along with newer apartment blocks. East Wall is in Dublin 3 and falls under Dublin City Council.

Period homes often have old clay or cast-iron drains, sometimes shared with neighbours, which crack and let in roots over time. 1930s–1960s homes commonly have clay pipes with mortar joints, where root intrusion and displaced joints cause repeated blockages.

What the fix involves and typical cost in East Wall

Clear with rods or high-pressure jetting and test the flow.

Typical price: €120–€280 (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

Also covering Drumcondra, Clontarf, Glasnevin and Coolock and the rest of North Dublin City. See Drain Unblocking across Dublin or the Drainage cost guide.
