Immediate drain help

What to do first in Church Point

Tell us what is backing up before choosing a service. It helps to know whether water is still rising, if rain changes the problem and where the drain can be reached.

  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 Church Point.

  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.

  • House wastewater blockage inspection

    A camera inspection can show the pipe, its direction and where the problem sits when clearing alone does not explain the cause.

  • Private stormwater connection checks

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

  • CCTV and locating where access allows

    Start with the drain that is backing up, how quickly it changed and the nearest safe access point.

Describe the nearest safe inspection opening, gully, pit or grate and any physical restrictions affecting equipment access.

Is a private drain public once it reaches the gutter?

Can CCTV be used before the line is passable?

A heavy obstruction may first need appropriate clearing before the camera can travel far enough to record useful details.
