About Allambie Heights

Allambie Heights is a family suburb 17 km north-east of the CBD. The name comes from an Aboriginal word meaning “peaceful place” and it lives up to it. Set on a ridgeline bordered by Manly Dam Reserve, Garigal National Park, and Allenby Park, it’s about as bushland as suburban Sydney gets.

Most homes went up from the late 1940s through the 1970s. They started as modest fibro cottages on big blocks over 650 square metres, though most have been rebuilt into proper family homes by now. Streets like Dobroyd Road, Roosevelt Avenue, and Tobruk Avenue wind through the bushy terrain.

The original plumbing in a lot of these homes is earthenware and galvanised steel. Well past its design life. Tree root intrusion from the surrounding bushland is the number one cause of blocked drains around here. Eucalypt and turpentine roots go straight for the moisture in ageing sewer lines. And the sandstone under the suburb makes traditional pipe digging expensive and difficult. Pipe relining is the go-to fix for most Allambie Heights homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer emergency plumbing in Allambie Heights?

Yes. Our emergency plumbers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Allambie Heights and the Northern Beaches. Whether it is a burst pipe at midnight or a gas leak on a public holiday, we respond fast with no after-hours surcharge on our call-out.

What causes blocked drains in Allambie Heights?

The biggest cause of blocked drains in Allambie Heights is tree root intrusion from the mature eucalypts and native bushland that borders the suburb on three sides — Manly Dam Reserve, Garigal National Park, and Allenby Park. Roots penetrate ageing terracotta pipe joints and cracks in search of moisture. Many homes still have their original 1950s–70s earthenware drainage, which has become brittle and prone to collapse over the decades.

Can you reline pipes in Allambie Heights without digging?

Yes. Pipe relining is an ideal solution for Allambie Heights properties, where many homes are built on sandstone and surrounded by established native gardens. We insert an epoxy resin liner that creates a seamless new pipe inside the old one — no excavation of driveways, landscaping, or the bushland setbacks that many properties back onto. All relining work comes with a 50-year warranty.

Do you charge a call-out fee in Allambie Heights?

No. We offer a $0 call-out fee for all jobs in Allambie Heights. We will come to your property, assess the problem, and provide a fixed-price quote at no cost. If you choose not to proceed, there is no obligation and no charge.
