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
Dudley’s earliest homes are late nineteenth-century miners’ cottages, with later houses built among them, so we assume no single gas set-up. We read the meter or LPG cylinders on site before quoting.
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 Dudley, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Dudley 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
Dudley’s first subdivision was declared in January 1889, the year after South Burwood Colliery opened at Dudley; the mine took the Dudley name in 1891 and was closed and demolished in 1940. Council’s Dudley Heritage Precinct plan describes the earlier dwellings as working-class cottages from the late nineteenth century coalfields and lists the most significant original miners’ cottages as heritage items. Its site coverage limit is 45%, including ancillary development, and one aim is on-site stormwater infiltration. Council’s history gives 1928 for the water supply and 1964 for sewerage. An extension inside the precinct is measured against that limit, so drainage and stormwater are planned with the site plan.
