Immediate drain help
What to do first in Norwest
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 Norwest.
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 The Hills Shire Council.

Getting a drain checked in Norwest
Tell us what is backing up, when it started and where the drain can be reached safely.
For a blocked drain in Norwest, report the property or building, affected units, levels and fixtures, any overflow and the contact who can authorise service access. Houses remain substantial, so the actual property type must lead assessment.
A private branch, common pipe, private easement, council stormwater asset and Sydney Water wastewater line have different responsibility paths. The problem location and line served should be documented before repair or ownership is decided.
Multi-level apartment and shared drain symptom assessment
List which fixtures and levels are backing up so one unit’s branch can be separated from a shared stack or main line.
Clearing blocked house drains through confirmed private access
Tell us when the pooling starts, which pit or grate fills and whether toilets or indoor drains are behaving normally.
CCTV when a blockage keeps returning or the pipe involved is unclear
Once the drain is flowing, CCTV can show why the same pipe keeps blocking and where the problem sits.
