Common Causes of Blocked Drains in Green Point
- Ageing clay or cast iron pipework original to Green Point’s Victorian-era terraces
- Narrow, hard-to-access drain runs between closely built terrace properties
- Shared drain lines in apartment blocks carrying waste from multiple units
- Tree roots from street and garden trees invading older pipe joints
- Wet wipes and sanitary products blocking residential lines
- Stormwater drains overloaded after heavy rain near Green Point park
Why Green Point’s Older Terraces Need Careful Drain Work
Green Point’s terrace houses sit close together on narrow lots, which means drain runs are often tightly packed and harder to access than on a typical freestanding property. Combined with pipework that, in many cases, hasn’t been touched since the houses were built, it’s easy for small blockages to become bigger problems if they’re not diagnosed properly. In the newer apartment blocks, shared stacks mean one blockage can affect several units at once.
