What we see in Joondalup homes

A lot of Joondalup and the surrounding suburbs were built from the 1980s through the 2000s. That means plenty of houses are on their second or third hot water system, with original taps, flexi hoses and isolation valves that are well past their best.

Hot water replacements on 15 to 25-year-old homes, often gas storage units on an outside wall.
Braided flexi hoses under sinks and toilets giving way. It’s one of the most common indoor floods.
Sewer and stormwater lines blocked by roots from established street trees and garden trees.
Near the coast (Ocean Reef, Mullaloo, Kallaroo, Iluka), salt air is hard on outdoor hot water units, brass fittings and garden taps.
Units and townhouses around the city centre, where shared pipework means working with the strata manager.
Hidden leaks under slabs and in the supply line from the meter, often picked up from a high water bill.

Blocked sewer? Who pays

If the toilet won’t flush or the gully out the back is overflowing, the blockage is usually in your property sewer. That’s the owner’s responsibility up to the connection to Water Corporation’s main. If we find the blockage is in their main, we report it to Water Corporation for you and their crew clears it. If sewage is overflowing on your property, call Water Corporation on 13 13 75 straight away as well.
