A lot of older Paddington terraces still have vitrified clay drainage, and over time the joints can open up, sections can crack and tree roots can force their way into the line. We first clear the root mass and restore flow, then assess whether the damaged section is suitable for trenchless relining. Clay pipes can often be successfully relined with a resin liner that seals cracks and joints from the inside, creating a new pipe within the existing drain without the need to excavate long sections of the property.

The building hosted the planning meetings for Sydney’s first Mardi Gras in 1978, back when homosexuality was still illegal in NSW. It went on to host Australia’s first public meeting on HIV/AIDS in 1983 and the first official Mardi Gras after-party in 1980 — a quiet Victorian town hall sitting at the centre of a movement that changed the country.

Held in the grounds of Paddington Uniting Church on Oxford Street, the markets host over 150 stalls of local designers, artists and makers. It’s one of Sydney’s longest continuously running weekly markets, with themed pop-ups like a Vinyl Records Fair rotating through the calendar.

Long before boutique galleries and $3-million terraces, Paddington’s first landowners ran Australia’s first legal distillery, producing rum and gin from 1823. Juniper Hall, the grand mansion still standing on Oxford Street, is literally named after the gin that paid for it.

Sydney planners drew up an official document called “Paddington Replanning” that proposed tearing down virtually every terrace house in the suburb and replacing them with apartment blocks. It only survived because postwar migrants moved in and started renting the “undesirable” old houses instead.

Oxford Street near Victoria Barracks is one of Sydney’s best-known jacaranda bloom spots, with the flowering trees drawing photographers each spring — not far from the sunken Paddington Reservoir Gardens.
