Worth knowing about Benowa

The Nerang River forms two of Benowa's boundaries, and the Benowa Waters canal estate was built from the 1970s into the 1990s. Most homes, 60.9%, are separate houses. On low land beside water, drains can sit close to the water table, and the oldest have had decades of use. We help Benowa households find a licensed local plumber for blocked drains.

In a separate house, a blockage often shows first at the lowest fixture, such as a shower or a floor waste. You may hear gurgling or notice a smell. If the overflow relief gully outside is overflowing, the blockage is usually further down the line. Use as little water as you can until a plumber has looked at it.

It helps to tell the plumber what you have noticed. Say which fixtures are affected, how long it has been happening, and whether anyone has used a drain cleaner. If you know roughly when your home was built, mention that too. With your permission, we’ll pass the details to a licensed local plumber who covers Benowa.
