Worth knowing about Hope Island

Large-volume dredging turned Hope Island, partly circled by the Coomera River, from a flood-prone site into a major development area. The first development initiative came through the Sanctuary Cove Resort Act 1985. We connect Hope Island residents with a licensed local plumber when a drain blocks or backs up.

Separate houses make up 59.4% of homes on Hope Island. In a house, a blocked drain often shows at the lowest fixture first, such as a shower or floor waste. If the overflow relief gully outside is overflowing, the blockage is usually further down the line. If you live in a unit or townhouse, also tell the body corporate or building manager, since other homes may share the pipe.

On the sewer, the line between the City and the owner is the property connection point. The City of Gold Coast maintains the pipe from its main to that point. The drains and inspection openings on the property side are the owner’s job. If you see sewage overflowing from a manhole in the street, report it to the City on 1300 GOLDCOAST (1300 465 326).
