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
The council’s history entry gives Brightwaters a 1963 water supply date and says nothing about gas, so we check the property for a meter or LPG cylinders before quoting any gas work.
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 Brightwaters, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Brightwaters 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
Brightwaters was known as Sugar Bay when Joseph Marshall, a Sydney brewery proprietor, began planting cane there in 1865. By 1870 he had 60 acres, and a steam sugar mill stood near Mill Lane until a bushfire destroyed it in January 1875. Henry Halloran’s Brightwaters estates were declared in 1913 and 1914, did not sell out, and were re-advertised after the Second World War. Council gives 1963 for the water supply. Hunter Water lists Brightwaters among the communities its Dora Creek treatment works serves, so a drainage job starts by locating the property’s sewer connection.

Professional with high attention to detail
My husband spoke with Josh the owner about our hot water service in the afternoon. By the next day it was installed and working. Great service. Great price. Very impressed.
