Eastern

Eastern covers Chai Wan, Shau Kei Wan, Siu Sai Wan and Lei Yue Mun. Much of the housing stock is 1960s–70s tong lau with original cast-iron soil pipes, so blockages and slow leaks are the common calls. Chai Wan and Siu Sai Wan have heavy industry and warehouses, so three-phase power and higher-load plant are regular jobs. On older estates the soil stacks are often corroded, and a good plumber will check the stack rather than just clear the blockage.

Covered areas：柴灣, 筲箕灣, 小西灣, 西灣河, 杏花邨
