Blocked, burst or leaking in Nar Nar Goon?
Blocked drains, burst pipes and leaks in Nar Nar Goon, from the foothills to the flat swamp fringe, passed to a licensed plumber day and night.

Foothills, swamp flats and later subdivisions
The first pastoral run took in foothills to the north and flat land fringing swamps to the south. That southern ground drains slowly, so a blocked stormwater line and soggy trench walls are more likely there than on the slopes, and fall and outlet are checked first.
From the early 1980s some larger blocks on the outskirts were subdivided. Those homes are likely to have newer plastic pipe but may still rely on on-site wastewater, so whether a lot is on sewer is confirmed before a drain job is quoted.

Nar Nar Goon questions
The old bank, the station precinct and sewer
Can spouting on the old bank building be replaced?
Yes, though a Cardinia Shire heritage permit is likely first. The former Commercial Bank, the shire's oldest architect designed commercial building, has a near original exterior, so visible downpipes, spouting and roof plumbing are changed with lead time allowed.
Does digging near the station need consent?
Generally, yes. The station precinct is a Victorian Heritage Inventory site that played a key role in the operation of Nar Nar Goon Station, so a trench for a sewer, water or stormwater connection nearby is checked against the Inventory, with Heritage Victoria's consent before ground is broken.
What if the house is not on sewer?
Then the on-site system is found and its condition checked before any drain work is priced, since the fix for a slow tank system is different from clearing a sewer line.
