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
Swansea Heads is small, with 256 private dwellings at the 2021 Census, so gas work is quoted house by house. We confirm the meter or LPG cylinders on site before pricing anything.
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 Swansea Heads, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
Jobs to plan for in Swansea Heads
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Swansea Heads 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
Swansea Heads is where Lake Macquarie opens to the sea. Reids Mistake, the southern headland of the entrance, is named after Captain William Reid, who loaded coal there in 1800 believing he was at the Hunter River, and Lancelot Threlkeld set up a coal loading depot at the heads in 1842. Swansea Heads is also one of five suburbs in the council’s Local Adaptation Plan for future flooding and coastal risks. A small part of it forms the Swansea Heads Mine Subsidence District, where Subsidence Advisory NSW approval is needed before starting work on a property. An extension in that area is worth planning with the approval in mind.
Customer feedback
Thanks Josh for the installation of my new hot water system. A neat and extremely professional job. I appreciated your communication, reliability and punctuality. Gladly send more work your way.
We had our hot water system blow out while we were away for the weekend and came home to an absolute mess on a Sunday afternoon ! We contacted Donza Plumbing and within 24 hours Josh had us up an running again with a brand new install. His professionalism is commendable and we highly recommended Donza plumbing. Thanks Josh!
