Reassurance

A little reassurance goes a long way. Two weeks ago we awoke to find we had blocked toilets, this was just downstairs, upstairs was ok probably due to gravity. After deciding that the pipe outside was blocked we got a plumber in. One hour and $190 later the sewerage pipe was unblocked. The plumber informed us that it was indeed a tree root and that the amount of worm he used to unblock it meant the blockage was not only well away from our property, but well away from the neighbours as well. This could only mean that it was on council property.

Last week Hazel rang the council about another matter and while talking to the lady on the other end decided to find out where we stand if the blockage happens again (which it will do).The lady assured her that the council have a policy that they will attend to any request within 25 days. So be reassured that if you are sitting in xxxx you will only have to wait 25 days at the most.
