Leopold plumbing at a glance
- In a newer house, a sudden leak is more likely at a fitting than in the pipe itself.
- The older village core is a different proposition, with drainage old enough for roots to get in at the joints.
Local conditions
Leopold's measured centre is about 35 m above sea level, and the ring 250 m out ranges from 25 to 45 m. The nearest shore is 2.9 km away and the Barwon 4.8 km. Stormwater pits and grates are worth a look before the first heavy rain: a pit choked with leaves overflows whatever the lie of the block. In the older village core, the drainage may be old enough for roots to reach the joints, and a line that blocks twice in the same place is worth a camera inspection.
