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
On a block the council’s flood tool marks as flood-prone, we check where the gas meter or LPG cylinders sit, and confirm the supply at the property before quoting 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 Dora Creek, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Dora Creek 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
Dora Creek’s name comes from Doree Doree, an Aboriginal name meaning a creek running into the lake. Ketches loaded timber at sawmills on its banks, and fishing families settled once the railway opened in 1887 and the catch could reach the Sydney markets by the next morning. Council’s flooding history records Dora Creek floods in 1977, 1989, 1990 and 2015, and council has adopted a flood study that covers the creek. Its free property flooding tool shows the hazard for a single address, which is worth checking before low-set drainage or outdoor plumbing is planned.

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.
