Thebby is like Prospect.

$93/qtr every qtr
I don't have mains sewerage and the whole house is plumbed into rainwater.

So basically $93 because mains water is connected to my house

Depends where the downpipe goes?
Into a rainwater tank or out to the street?

Could try the pressure cleaner to blow them through but it could clog it up permanently also.

Worse case scenario you could hire a plumbers snake and put it down there as that will work every time.

I bought one last year, the wife and I had just been for a jog and decided to pressure clean our carport, as she was operating it the handle on the front tap blew off shooting water high up into the air, we couldn't find the "grey water" meter so I was trying to push the handle back in to try and screw it back on while water was just drenching us, I looked over at the missus and noticed her white running singlet and then the half a dozen people that had stopped in their tracks to watch the chaos.
We haven't tried using it since.

Thanks lads, gives me a few clues, I do have a pressure cleaner but might try that last as I dont want to make it worse by jamming the leaves even more together...the downpipe does into the ground and out the back of our place into a easement. Gives me the shits as the tree where the leaves are coming from is the neighbors

The pricks in the mansion-like house next to us have a claret ash tree that leaks leaves all over our outdoor entertainment area, I feel like chucking them back over the fence.
