What Blocks Drains in Kippa-Ring
Clay and earthenware pipes
More than half of Unitywater's sewer main through the suburb is vitrified clay, under Anzac Avenue, George, Henzell, Kurumba and Kippa streets. The 1960s and 1970s subdivisions connected with earthenware house drains and cement joints, and that old pipe stock cracks, shifts and silts up, which is why chokes return after a simple rod-through.
Grease from the commercial core
As the retail centre of the peninsula, the suburb sends kitchen wastewater from food outlets, aged care kitchens and a hospital into the shared mains near the two shopping centres, where cooled grease narrows the runs.
Sand in the joints
Fine coastal sand sits under Hercules Road and Fleet Drive, and it slips through cracked joints to pack a gritty plug in nearby house drains that plain rodding often leaves behind.
Flat ground and overland flow
Overland flow crosses Chorley, Wanganui, Ballina and Kappella streets, and the flood overlay's medium class still covers Dorall, Norcott, High, Beach and Dalton streets, with a high patch on Klingner Road, so yard pits do heavy work in a summer storm.
At the last census the suburb counted 3,676 dwellings, most of them detached houses built in those middle decades, which is why repeat chokes on old pipe stock make up so much of the work here.

Kippa-Ring Drain Questions
Call (07) 3067 4107Do the clay mains under Anzac Avenue affect my house drains?
They often do, since the earthenware house drains of the 1960s and 1970s subdivisions went in around the same era as the clay mains, both age the same way, and a camera run shows which side of the boundary the fault sits on.
Why does grease block drains near the Kippa-Ring shopping centres?
Because the suburb is the peninsula's main shopping area, kitchens around Peninsula Fair, the aged care homes and the hospital all drain into shared mains, and cooled grease builds a wall on the pipe that jet blasting strips away.
Who owns the sewer line between my boundary and Unitywater's main?
Pipes inside your boundary are yours to look after, while the street main is Unitywater's, so a camera run first is worth it: footage showing the fault out in the main hands the job to the authority.
Can sand in the pipes come back after clearing?
It can, because the fine sand under Hercules Road keeps entering any joint that has cracked, so a clean shifts the plug but a camera check shows whether a repair is needed to stop the pattern.
Does the flood overlay on Dorall Street change how stormwater drains?
It does, since that street sits inside the overlay's medium class along with the station access, so gullies and downpipes on those blocks need clearing before the storm season arrives.
