Common Plumbing Problems in Highett
No Hot Water?
In older homes or those with outdated plumbing systems, it can be challenging to get hot water due to corroded pipes or faulty pressure tanks. Many of our properties are built from brick and concrete, which can lead to mineral buildup over time.
Blocked Drains?
Tree roots can cause significant blockages in drains, particularly if they've grown through the pipes in older homes. Clay pipes, which were once common in Highett's early days, can also become clogged due to wear and tear or poor maintenance. Local soil conditions can exacerbate drain issues.
Low Water Pressure?
Pipe materials like copper and PEX can be affected by corrosion, while older properties with galvanised pipes may have water pressure issues due to the rusty material affecting flow. Additionally, some areas in Highett experience pipe damage or blockages from tree roots or nearby industrial activities.
From Our Plumbers
"On blocked drains in Highett, we typically find tree root intrusion due to older clay pipes in the area. Our CCTV drain camera usually pinpoints the exact location within 15 minutes, so our plumbers can give you an accurate quote before starting any work."
