Clovelly Park
From vineyards to a 1950s suburb
Clovelly Park's first vineyard was planted in 1838, and the land stayed in vines, market gardens and almond orchards until widespread housing arrived in the mid-1950s. Its reserves, from Rosslyn Avenue to Byron Avenue, keep some of that open feel. The 2021 Census counts 68.8% separate houses and 30.3% semi-detached or row homes, with three bedrooms the norm at 60.2%, and 34.3% of homes rented.
Drains laid in the 1950s are usually earthenware or early PVC, and around 70 years on, roots, shifting clay and worn joints have had time to work on them. Semi-detached pairs often share a line before it reaches the sewer, so one neighbour's blockage can reach the other. We clear the line, film it when a fault needs finding, and quote repairs, keeping landlords and tenants in the loop.
- In a semi-detached pair, ask next door whether their toilet or shower is slow too before you call; it tells us whether the shared line is the problem.
- Landlords: tell us who approves the work and give us the tenant's contact for access, and we arrange the visit with the tenant.
- Keep a strainer in the shower and the laundry trough. In a 1950s line, hair and lint add to whatever the roots have already started.
