Coburg houses and what they mean for the pipes
Victorians and bungalows
Coburg's double-fronted Victorians and California bungalows have pipes that have been in the ground a long time. Before anything is dug up, the camera shows what the pipe is made of and where it's damaged. You see the footage.
Coburg North brick homes
Many are two-bedroom brick Housing Commission homes built to one design, often with a weatherboard extension. Drains from the extension join the original line, and that join is one of the first places we check.
New homes and townhouses
Coburg Hill on Elizabeth Street and new housing around central Coburg can have several homes on one sewer line. Blockages there are usually wipes, grease and paper.
Heavy rain in Coburg North
The SES flood guide says Merlynston Creek and Merri Creek run through Coburg North, and heavy rain can overwhelm stormwater drains and cause flash flooding.
A clear drain on your own block gets roof and yard water away faster. If a pit still overflows after you clear the grate, see blocked stormwater drain.
Merri-bek, Darebin and heritage
Most of Coburg is in Merri-bek City Council, formerly Moreland. A few properties on the eastern edge, and some on Elizabeth Street in Coburg North, are in Darebin. A blocked drain in the street goes to your council.
On a heritage overlay home, Merri-bek needs a permit for some works, so check before outside work starts. Pipe relining fixes many cracked pipes from inside, without digging.

You get the price before the work starts, and the plumber who quotes does the job. Pensioners and seniors get 10% off.
