Flooding or sewage? Do this first.

Step 1. What's the problem?

Plumbing on an exposed coast

Collaroy Beach faces the open sea. Storms hit the beachfront hard. Some beachfront owners have built seawalls to protect their homes.

Is your home on the beach side? Tell a licensed plumber what the storms left behind.

Behind the seawall

Seawall and yard works can disturb pipes that run through the back garden. A new wet patch or a slow drain afterwards is worth a look. Leak detection finds the spot without digging up the lawn.

Up on the Plateau

Collaroy Plateau sits well above the beach. It has bushland and sandy soil, and some streets have views over the sea and the lagoon. Big trees close to a sewer line can block blocked drains.

Beach or plateau?

The first thing to check depends on where you live.

Watch the back of the property

Storm surf and wall works are hardest on the ground nearest the sand.

  1. Look for wet ground, sunken paving or a bill that jumps.
  2. Tell the plumber if the home is beachfront.

After a big storm

Three simple checks. Call a plumber if any of them looks wrong.

Water meter

Turn off every tap, then watch the meter. If it still moves, water is escaping somewhere.

Ask: can you trace it?

Hot water unit

Check outside units for water at the base. See hot water.

Ask: is it safe to keep running?

Wet ground

Soggy patches on dry days can mean a pipe break.

Ask: is this a pipe or just the rain?
