13%+of the 15 blocked drains around Altona involved tree roots
In general terms: 1950s-80s homes plus newer estates; basalt clay.
Water authority: Greater Western Water · Council: Hobsons Bay; Wyndham (Laverton/Altona Meadows edges)
Altona and the suburbs around it sit on the bay in Melbourne's west, a mix of the established Altona township, the family estates of Altona Meadows and Seabrook, and neighbouring Laverton. We work across all of them.
Over the last two years we've done more than 90 jobs around Altona. It's a steady spread of blocked drains, taps, toilets and hot water. The area runs from older beachside homes in Altona through to the newer estate housing in Altona Meadows and Seabrook, which means a bit of everything.
In the older Altona streets, aging pipework and drains come into it more, and the sandy bayside ground plays its part. In the newer estates it's mostly hot water and taps. Either way, we find out what's actually behind a problem rather than just patching it.
Whatever the job, from a blocked drain to a hot water system or a hidden leak, we fix the cause, not just the symptom. That's been the Fix-It Right way since Richie started the business in 2007.

Highly recommended. Thane is excellent and helped to explain everything about the root cause of our plumbing issue, and got it all fixed for us.
My place needed a maintenance check up which Thane undertook in a thorough and informative manner. It was a relief to be finally rid of odd odours and leaks, and reassuring that hot water service and other items were ok. Definitely recommend his can do and respectful manner.
Thane was excellent all round from his communication and courteous nature to his skills with the tools. He presented several solutions to our problems and we worked together in harmony to a satisfactory conclusion. 5 stars.
The plumber who comes out and works out what's wrong is the one who fixes it, and he stays with your job from start to finish until it's done properly, top to bottom. We don't send one person to look and another to do the work, and we never pull your plumber off your job to chase the next call. Not many plumbing companies anywhere are that strict about it, and it's why the job gets done right the first time.

View Cailem’s profileCailem was an experienced plumber and efficient and friendly and I was more than satisfied with the excellent work he did.
Yes, it's a regular patch. We cover Altona, Altona Meadows, Laverton and Seabrook, across the older township and the newer estates alike, plus Altona North.
In the newer estates it's mostly hot water systems, taps and the occasional thing left over from the original build, rather than old-pipe problems. These are often quick to sort.
Greater Western Water covers Altona, Altona Meadows, Laverton and Seabrook. If the issue is at the meter or the sewer connection at the street, that's their responsibility, and we'll help you work out what's yours and what's theirs before any work starts.
Older homes near the bay have pipework that's been in a while, and the sandy ground affects drainage. We use leak detection and drain cameras to find exactly what's going on before we start, so there's no guesswork.
The western bayside is a regular patch, so Altona, Altona Meadows, Laverton and Seabrook are well covered.
$0 call-out. We come out and look things over. If you don't go ahead, you don't pay.
Three written quotes. The first gets you out of trouble, the last takes care of everything the whole-home check found, and there's one in between. All of them are proper fixes.
Fixed For Good. Done properly the first time, triple tested before we leave, and backed by a 10-year workmanship warranty.
12 months, no interest, nothing to pay
Get it fixed today, on any job, and make your first payment in a year. It's there because a burst pipe doesn't wait for payday, and neither should the repair.
