Local knowledge
Plumbing in West Pennant Hills, specifically
West Pennant Hills is mostly 1970s and 1980s brick homes on large sloping blocks backing onto bushland, and that combination produces a very particular job list. The era means the supply pipework is at the changeover point — some houses were plumbed in copper, some in galvanised steel, and plenty in both, with the galvanised sections now corroding from the inside and dropping pressure long before they visibly leak.
The bushland edge along Cumberland State Forest is the other half of it. Mature eucalypts sit directly over sewer lines that were laid when the estates went in, and the roots have had forty years to find the joints. We reline more sewer in this suburb than we clear.
The third thing we see here is pools. A high proportion of West Pennant Hills homes have one, and a surprising number have backwash and overflow lines that were connected into stormwater rather than sewer, which is both a compliance problem and a very effective way to block a stormwater line with sand and filter media.
What we see most in West Pennant Hills
- Mixed copper and galvanised supply, with pressure dropping as galvanised corrodes
- Root intrusion from the state forest boundary into 1970s sewer lines
- Pool backwash incorrectly plumbed to stormwater
- Stormwater run-off problems on steep rear yards
Approvals
West Pennant Hills is in The Hills Shire Council
What your council decides, wherever you are
- Approval to install and to operate an on-site wastewater system, under s.68 of the Local Government Act 1993
- Where stormwater is allowed to discharge — kerb, absorption trench or easement — under the council's development control plan
- Consent to remove or prune a tree, including the one whose roots are in your sewer line
The Hills Shire Council, specifically
- On-site wastewater approvals for the acreage belt — Kenthurst, Annangrove, Glenhaven and the rural end of Dural
- Stormwater and absorption requirements on the newer estates, where lot sizes are small and the ground is often reactive clay
- Tree preservation across the shire's older, heavily planted streets
The shire covers both the densest new estates in Sydney and genuine acreage, and the requirements at the two ends have almost nothing in common. Which one you are in decides the job.
Anything built over or beside a Sydney Water sewer — a slab, a pool, an extension — is Sydney Water's approval rather than the council's, and it is the one that most often holds a job up. We tell you which of the two you need before you start chasing either.
