Blocked drain FAQs for Parklea
Why does Parklea’s attached-home share matter?
It means a shared service or controlled access may be relevant, so the exact property and pipe served should be confirmed.
What evidence helps with redirected water?
Photos of the source and path during the event, timing, frequency and damage are more useful than a description after the water has gone.
Is every shared drain strata common property?
No. The title, properties served and pipe position determine whether it is private, shared or common property.
