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
With only 35 residents counted at the 2021 Census, Ryhope offers no neighbourhood to compare with. We look for a gas meter or LPG cylinders 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 Ryhope, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Ryhope 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.
Jobs to book
Local context
A subdivision at Ryhope was planned in 1881, and Samuel Brown bought much of it and became known as the "Squire of Ryhope". Two small coalmines, Blowfly Pit and March Fly Pit, worked the mountain opposite his holding. In the 1970s the council moved to buy land in the old subdivision to control future development. Ryhope is home to the Lake Macquarie Memorial Park, Cemetery and Crematorium on Cessnock Road, which a council planning proposal describes as served by Hunter Water’s reticulated water and as having an on-site sewage management system. The 2021 Census counted 35 residents. That one property shows mains water and on-site sewage can sit together, so each is checked separately.
