As well as delivering safe, clean and reliable water to you, it’s also our job to take it away once you’ve used it. So, when you flush the toilet, have a shower or turn on your kitchen taps, we make sure that all the water you use – now called sewage – is safely collected and transferred to treatment plants via our sewerage system.
If you can hear gurgling noises in your sink, your basins are draining slowly, or there’s a bad smell coming from your sinks or drains, you might have a sewer block.
Sewage from your property travels via pipelines to a Wastewater Treatment Plant, where waste is removed and treated water is returned to the environment.
