Water, sewer & backflow
Hunter Water supplies water and sewer here, and backflow test reports are lodged with Hunter Water. What the annual backflow test involves
Arcadia Vale is almost entirely separate houses, each on its own lot. Before gas work, the first job is a look at the meter and a check for LPG cylinders.
Josh holds the gas licence as well as the plumbing licence, so the gas connection and the compliance certificate are part of the same job.
We repair, replace and install gas, electric, heat pump and continuous-flow hot water units in Arcadia Vale, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
Jobs to plan for in Arcadia Vale
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Arcadia Vale with the jetter or the drain machine, and put a camera down a drain that keeps blocking.
In Hunter Water’s area the owner looks after the sewer pipes up to where they join Hunter Water’s system, including the boundary trap and inspection shaft. If the inspection shaft is full or overflowing, the blockage may be in Hunter Water’s main, so call Hunter Water on 1300 657 000 (24/7) first.

Local context
Arcadia Vale was first called Kirkdale, after the early settler Joseph Kirk. Henry Halloran’s 1922 subdivision, influenced by the English Garden City movement, set out curving streets and many small parks. The waterfront was sold first, as boatshed sites, and in the Depression many families, especially out-of-work miners, moved into the boatsheds and dug wells for fresh water. The public school opened in 1958 and the baths in 1959. A lot that began as a boatshed site and later gained a house can have its supply and drain runs laid at different times, so tracing both comes first in a renovation.
