Blocked Drains?
Tree roots expanding in clay pipe lines can block sewer drains, causing sewage overflows and backups into properties. Poorly constructed or old drains can also lead to clogged pipes.
Low Water Pressure?
Faulty main water pressure pipes or corroded service lines can reduce water pressure, especially in areas with hard water or high pipe material degradation.

Real Plumbing Stories from Franklin
Trusted Plumbing in the Heart of Franklin
Midweek during school holidays, a long-time resident in Franklin noticed a plumbing issue that started small but quickly became a bigger problem. The homeowner had only recently moved to Franklin and was still learning about the property's systems when the issue presented itself.
“I called up today and spoke to a lovely lady, I explained the concern with my Mums shower and she advised that someone could go out today and inspect, explained how everything would work. I received a call from Mitch when he was at mum's,he explained everything and gave a very reasonable quote, he had the whole job done before the time he was even booked to arrive. Thank you Mitch, so professional, punctual and polite. 💯 Recommend Mitch and this company. Thank you.”

After diagnosing the root cause, they explained the options clearly and provided an upfront quote before starting any work. The repair was completed efficiently, and the water system was left clean and fully functional. Kristen was impressed by the professionalism and attention to detail throughout the entire visit.
A Franklin Homeowner's Plumbing Issue Story
Early one Monday morning, a first-home buyer in Franklin discovered the need for a reliable plumber to handle multiple jobs in a single visit. With Franklin experiencing significant development over the past decade, many older homes in the area face plumbing challenges as ageing infrastructure meets modern demand. With the issue causing disruption to their daily routine, they decided to call Fix It Right Plumbing for help. Our office team talked them through some interim steps to manage the situation while the plumber was on the way. They had heard too many stories about tradespeople who overcharge or cut corners, so finding a reputable plumber was essential.
“Jack arrived on time, was considerate of the house and my sleeping baby, and gave me options and all the information to make a decision about our plumbing works.”
— Louisa ★★★★★
A plumber from our team, Jack, was on-site within the hour. After a careful assessment, he identified the issue and walked the homeowner through the recommended solution. With approval to proceed, the work was completed the same day, with all materials and labour covered by our workmanship guarantee. The homeowner was relieved to have the problem resolved so quickly. He also took a few minutes to explain some simple preventative measures the homeowner could take to reduce the chance of the same problem happening again. It is this kind of genuine care and attention that sets Fix It Right apart from other plumbing companies.
Solving Plumbing Issue for a Franklin Homeowner
Late on a Tuesday evening, a homeowner in Franklin woke up to find a plumbing emergency that left them scrambling for a trustworthy tradesperson. The household had always prided themselves on keeping their Franklin home in good condition, so when the plumbing issue appeared, they wanted it addressed properly. Previous attempts by another tradesperson had not resolved the problem, so they turned to us for a second opinion. They called us first thing in the morning, and we had a licensed plumber dispatched to the address before lunchtime. With young children in the house, the urgency was even greater, and they needed someone who could come out the same day.
“Adam was very thorough and diagnosed the exact problem. Gives the profession integrity. I will definitely be keeping his number.”
— M H ★★★★★
Fix It Right Plumbing dispatched Adam to the property without delay. Using a combination of visual inspection and pressure testing, he pinpointed the problem and got to work straight away. The job was finished within a few hours, and he made sure to test everything thoroughly before packing up. M appreciated the honest pricing and the fact that there were no surprises on the final invoice. Once the repair was complete, he tested everything multiple times to make sure the fix was solid and would last. The homeowner received a warranty certificate and a direct contact number for any future concerns, which they said gave them great confidence in the service.
Emergency Plumbing Call in Franklin
On a cold winter night, a young family in Franklin came home to find a long-overdue plumbing inspection that uncovered several issues needing repair. Like many properties in the Franklin area, the home had plumbing that was showing its age, and small issues had a way of turning into bigger ones if left unattended. The timing could not have been worse, but they needed someone who could respond quickly and get the job done right. A neighbour who had used Fix It Right before recommended us, so they called expecting good service and were not disappointed. The household had been managing without a proper fix for longer than they cared to admit, and it was time to call in the professionals.
“Dave was Fantastic. Explained everything in layman's terms. Could not fault him. Would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends.”
— Marguerite S ★★★★★
When our plumber Dave arrived, he took the time to listen to the customer's concerns before beginning the inspection. The issue turned out to be a fault that required prompt attention to prevent further damage, which he repaired using quality materials built to last. Before leaving, he provided maintenance advice to help prevent the same problem from recurring. The customer was grateful for both the repair and the guidance. The whole process, from the initial phone call to the final clean-up, took less time than expected. Marguerite commented that the professionalism shown by our team was a refreshing change from previous experiences with other tradespeople.
