Plumbing in Geelong
- In an apartment, strata or commercial building, the first question on any failure is whether it is common property or inside the lot.
- Where a house behind the CBD still has its original earthenware sewer, the mortared joints are where roots can enter.
About Geelong
The measured centre of Geelong sits about 23 m above sea level, with the ring 250 m out between 16 and 34 m. Corio Bay is about 0.7 km from the centre. It is sheltered water: the Galvanizers Association guide to AS 4312 puts land 50 m to 1 km from a sheltered bay in band C3, two bands milder than land beside breaking surf. Salt wear on outdoor taps and hot water casings here is real but slow. On any gravity sewer, wherever it is, a blockage backs up at the lowest fixture or gully on that line first, so that is the first place to look.
For costs, see indicative prices; for licences, the Victorian register check.
