How We Get to Your Home Fast
Driving from Canberra
Our team travels north along Northbourne Avenue past Dickson and Lyneham, connecting to Ginninderra Drive past Jamison Centre and into Macquarie near the Macquarie Shops and Belconnen Fresh Food Markets.
Average response time to Macquarie: 16 minutes during business hours
Blocked Stormwater Drains?
The established trees in this suburb cause root intrusion in terracotta stormwater pipes. Regular CCTV inspections help catch issues before they cause major damage.
Low Water Pressure?
Older galvanised steel pipes in pre-1970s homes corrode internally, restricting flow. We often recommend repiping with copper or PEX for a permanent fix.
From Our Plumbers
"For hot water issues in Macquarie, we carry common replacement parts in our vans. About 70% of hot water problems we see are thermostat or element failures, which our plumbers can often fix same-day without needing a full system replacement."
— Fix It Right Plumbing Team, Canberra

Real Plumbing Stories from Macquarie
A Macquarie Family Gets Their Plumbing Issue Fixed
Late on a Tuesday evening, a long-time resident in Macquarie discovered a long-overdue plumbing inspection that uncovered several issues needing repair. The property, built during Macquarie's established residential period, had original plumbing that had served the household well for decades but was now starting to show signs of wear. After reading our reviews online, they felt confident calling Fix It Right Plumbing for a professional assessment. A neighbour who had used Fix It Right before recommended us, so they called expecting good service and were not disappointed. With young children in the house, the urgency was even greater, and they needed someone who could come out the same day.
