Keep Box Hill South separate in the address
Box Hill South is a Whitehorse suburb listed separately from Box Hill and Box Hill North. Use the complete suburb name and include a unit number or separate dwelling if applicable.
For a leak or overflow outdoors, identify the point where water becomes visible and whether it follows rainfall or fixture use. If the issue appears near a stormwater connection or easement, do not assume a private drain and a council asset are the same pipe; the relevant connection needs identifying.
Find the right plumbing service
For an indoor repair, explain which fixture is affected and whether it can still be used safely.
- Blocked drains
For slow or backed-up drainage; say whether the problem affects a sink, shower, toilet or an external private drain.
- Tap repairs
For a leaking mixer or dripping tap; identify the room and whether it shuts off properly.
- Leak detection
For dampness or suspected concealed water loss; describe the visible signs and when they occur.
Arrange a plumbing enquiry
- Give the Box Hill South address, unit and entry details.
- Describe rainwater separately from wastewater or continuous supply leakage.
- Mention any known easement or restricted access without entering unsafe spaces.
Local enquiry question
What if the drainage work affects a Whitehorse council asset?
Whitehorse advises checking the permits and approvals required before repairing, modifying or connecting stormwater drainage. Describe the location and proposed work when enquiring; assessment needs to establish the asset and scope first.
