Immediate drain help
What to do first in Millers 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.
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 Millers Point.
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.
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 City of Sydney Council.

Getting a drain checked in Millers Point
Tell us what is backing up, when it started and where the drain can be reached safely.
A pipe can be shared yet remain private. Confirm the properties or lots served, problem location and Sydney Water boundary before allocating repair responsibility.

View all drain questionsCan a shared pipe in Millers Point still be private?
Yes. City of Sydney says connected pipes shared with neighbours can remain the property owners’ responsibility. The pipe served and network boundary matter.
What helps identify whether more than one property is affected?
Compare fixtures and symptoms in adjoining lots or buildings, note the timing and inspect the shared route where access and authorisation allow.
Who is responsible for a mains sewer?
Sydney Water is responsible for mains sewers. A private plumber can help identify whether the problem appears to be before or beyond the private boundary.
