Blocked drain decisions in Barangaroo

A lot branch, common stack or drain, private stormwater line and Sydney Water main have different access and responsibility paths. The affected levels and line served should guide the next step.
- Multi-level symptom mapping
- Authorised building-service access
- CCTV where the branch or common-line position is unclear
- Public-network referral after the boundary is identified
The next step depends on the evidence
- 01 · Clear
Restore safe flow
Clear the obstruction using a method suited to the accessible line and stop the immediate backup or overflow.
- 02 · Inspect
Confirm the cause
Use CCTV when the blockage repeats, the condition is uncertain or the fault position must be documented.
- 03 · Repair
Fix a proven defect
Recommend repair or relining only when the inspection, condition and blockage history support it.

What should a Barangaroo building contact report?

When should Sydney Water be contacted?
