Common Plumbing Problems in Macquarie
Hot Water Failures?
Many homes in the area have ageing gas hot water systems from the 1990s. We frequently replace failed thermocouples and pilot assemblies in these older units.
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
