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
About one in five occupied homes in Swansea is a flat or apartment (2021 Census). We check the address for a gas meter or LPG cylinders before pricing, and in a flat we check whether the building allows a gas line at all.
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, and take the old unit away. No-hot-water jobs are attended around the clock.
We clear blocked sinks, toilets and sewers in Swansea 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 sits at the entrance to Lake Macquarie from the Pacific Ocean, beside the Swansea Channel, and was known as Pelican Flat until 1887. At the 2021 Census it had 2,550 private dwellings; of the occupied ones, 68.0% were separate houses, 21.8% flats or apartments and 8.8% townhouses or semi-detached homes. Lake Macquarie City Council’s Local Adaptation Plan for Swansea and nearby suburbs covers inundation, flooding, drainage and sewerage alongside sea level rise. The National Construction Code treats land within 100 m of salt water as a severe corrosion environment for structural steel, so external fittings close to the channel are worth inspecting.
