Worth knowing about Arundel

Arundel was named as a suburb in 1989 and grew as a series of housing estates beside Coombabah Creek and its wetlands. Separate houses make up 82.7% of homes, so a blocked drain here is usually a private house drain. Heavy rain can also wash debris into yard gullies and stormwater pits. Our role is simple: we connect Arundel homeowners with a licensed local plumber for blocked drains.

Typical signs in an Arundel house are a toilet that rises before it drains, a slow shower, or a smell from the laundry. If several fixtures are slow at once, the problem is likely in the main house drain rather than one pipe. If the overflow relief gully in the yard is spilling, the blockage is usually further down the line, towards the street.

Rain can make a sewer blockage worse if stormwater gets into the system. The City of Gold Coast’s rule is that roof and yard water goes to a tank, the kerb or a stormwater pit, never the sewer. So check that no downpipe or yard drain runs into your overflow relief gully. If one does, a licensed plumber should fix the connection.
