The Work We Do Here
Whatever goes wrong, it lands in one of four buckets:
1980s Estates on Phyllite Slopes
Ferny Grove built out late, between the late 1970s and the mid-1990s, on ground that had been fern flats, then a tile works and a nightsoil depot. The suburb counted 2031 dwellings at the last census, with detached houses making up 87.8 per cent, and most are brick-veneer builds that arrived after the sewers.
Fittings from the boom years
The mixers, flexi hoses and isolation valves fitted in volume during those estates are decades old now, and because whole streets share the same fittings, failures tend to arrive in clusters.
Slopes and creeks
Steeper streets climb phyllite hills, where roof and driveway water from above lands on the lot below unless it is piped away properly. Down on the flats, runoff heads fast to Kedron Brook and Cedar Creek, and the November 2008 storm proved how fast yard pits lose that race.
Second-generation hot water
The estate-era tanks have mostly been swapped once already, and those replacement units, often mounted behind garages or along a shaded wall, are now the ones giving up.

Ferny Grove Questions
Call (07) 3067 4119Do Ferny Grove homes still have the original estate-era hot water tanks?
The bulk of the housing dates from the 1980s and early 1990s, so the first tanks are long gone and it is the replacement generation, often tucked behind garages, that is now failing.
Who owns the sewer pipe between my Ferny Grove house and the main?
Urban Utilities looks after the public sewer and water mains, while every pipe on your side of the connection, from the house out to the boundary, is yours to maintain.
Why do the drains block so often on the steeper Ferny Grove streets?
Steep runs carry solids away at speed, but paper, wipes and silt settle in the flat section at the end of a lot, and benched hillside pads can belly a pipe over time.
Does storm season cause many callouts in Ferny Grove?
Yes, because the suburb's flats drain to two creeks, and the flash flooding of November 2008 proved how fast leaf-choked grates and yard pits lose the fight with heavy rain.
Are tree roots a common cause of blocked drains here?
They are, because street trees and reserve plantings from the estate years have had decades to send roots into the rubber-ring joints on house sewer lines, worst along the creek-side streets.
