  1. 01

    Active overflow

    Stop using the drains or fixtures that make the water rise, keep people and pets clear and call for blocked drain help in Avalon Beach.

  2. 02

    Recurring or slow drains

    Tell us which drains are slow and whether the same problem has been cleared before. CCTV may help if it keeps returning.

  3. 03

    Shared or rain-related symptoms

    Tell us if several homes or units have the problem, or if pooling appears only during rain.

Not sure who is responsible?

Who arranges the work depends on where the blockage is. Private drains are generally managed by the property owner, shared pipework may involve strata, Sydney Water manages its wastewater network and public stormwater questions for this address may involve Northern Beaches Council.

Separate private wastewater, shared lines and rain-related stormwater before deciding whether the next step is clearing, inspection or referral.

  • House sewer and fixture blockage checks

    Note every wastewater fixture that is slow or backing up, including any overflow at the outside gully.

  • Unit or shared drain inspection

    List which fixtures and levels are backing up so one unit’s branch can be separated from a shared stack or main line.

  • Stormwater pit and grate clearing

    Tell us when the pooling starts, which pit or grate fills and whether toilets or indoor drains are behaving normally.
