Immediate drain help
What to do first in North Narrabeen
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 North Narrabeen.
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 Northern Beaches Council.

Getting a drain checked in North Narrabeen
Tell us what is backing up, when it started and where the drain can be reached safely.
For a North Narrabeen blockage, report the fixtures or outdoor inlets with the problem, overflow, rain timing and whether access is private or shared.
The house-led setting guides access, but private stormwater, shared lines, Council assets and Sydney Water wastewater must still be separated.
House sewer and fixture clearing
Note every wastewater fixture that is slow or backing up, including any overflow at the outside gully.
Unit or shared drain checks
List which fixtures and levels are backing up so one unit’s branch can be separated from a shared stack or main line.
Private stormwater inspection
Tell us when the pooling starts, which pit or grate fills and whether toilets or indoor drains are behaving normally.

View all drain questionsWhat should North Narrabeen households report?
Report all fixtures or outdoor inlets with the problem, overflow risk, rainfall timing and the nearest safe access point.
Does a rain-linked symptom belong to Sydney Water?
Not generally. Rain-linked pits, grates and downpipes point toward stormwater, while Sydney Water handles its wastewater network.
What if a unit and neighbour are both affected?
Notify the strata contact and compare fixtures and timing so a shared section can be assessed.
