Step 1. What's the problem?

Is my Terrey Hills home on the sewer?

Not every home is. Council planning reports treat some Terrey Hills land as "unsewered lands". Sydney Water also runs a pressure sewer system in the suburb, called the Terrey Hills Minor Service Extension. Your address decides which set-up you have.

Set-upWhere the waste goesSign of trouble
SewerInto Sydney Water's pipesGurgling, a smell, a blocked toilet
Pressure sewerA pump on the property sends it to the sewerAn alarm, or drains that stop draining
On-site systemTreated or stored on your blockSlow drains, or a wet, smelly patch in the yard

Who looks after an on-site sewage system?

You do. Council monitors these systems across the Northern Beaches. Owners need council approval to operate one, and a service contract with a qualified provider. Council can also require a home to connect to the public sewer when it is close to the public sewer.

A failing system is a health risk. Call early. See blocked drains and emergency plumbing.
