Written by us, about the streets we work
The Mornington Peninsula is right on our doorstep, and we do a lot of work across it, in and around Mornington. It's a mix of permanent homes, holiday houses and newer builds, and we know the area well.
Over the last two years we've done more than 90 jobs around Mornington. Blocked drains top the list, followed by taps and toilets. The coastal setting, the mature gardens and the mix of older and newer homes all feed into the kind of work we see.
Tree roots are a big part of the drain story here. In around two in five of the blocked drains we clear around Mornington, roots have got into the pipe, which is on the high side and fits an area with established gardens and older sewer lines. We check whether roots are the cause rather than just clearing a blockage, so it's properly sorted.
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.

What actually goes wrong in Mornington homes
Tree roots are behind a lot of Mornington's blocked drains, and in the established streets around the town centre they find their way into the older sewer lines. In June, Adam cleared one that had roots, grease, a broken pipe and a stuck mop all in the same line. We put a camera down to find the cause, so you're not ringing us about the same drain next winter.
More on how we clear blocked drains: from a slow sink to a main sewer line.
A leak you can't see is still costing you, in water and in damage to floors, walls and footings. Mornington's mix of older units and newer infill means it could be anything from a perished joint to a pipe under a new slab. We find exactly where it is before anything gets opened up.
More on how we find hidden leaks: from a dripping ceiling to a pipe under the slab.
Real customers from around Mornington, in their own words
Just a Ben from Fix-It Right Plumbing (Mornington Penin) at my place to discover the site of a pipe leak - he found 2! A very pleasant, polite and efficient young man who clearly explained the costing process and then my options re repair of the pipes. Thank you, Ben.
Jack and Syd did a great job installing a new hot water service and replacement of under sink pipes. They were easy to deal with, courteous and upfront with quotes. They also left the work area clean. Great job!
Josh was prompt, efficient and bent over backwards to locate the gas leak, fix it and arrange for a new meter. He explained everything thoroughly and I would certainly use his services again.
James arrived promptly and explained what he was going to do and the cost involved. He was friendly and easy to talk to. Although he was unable to fix the leak his investigations located where the leak was occurring and he contacted the appropriate authority to get it fixed. Thank you James
Highly recommend these guys. I have used their service twice and they are fantastic. We had Dave come out today who was punctual, professional, honest and friendly. Will definitely use in the future. Thanks for an awesome service!
The plumber who comes out and works out what's wrong is the one who fixes it, and they stay 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.
Same face from the first knock to the final test

Straight answers, no runaround
It's largely tree roots, behind around two in five of the blocked drains we clear around Mornington. Established gardens, coastal trees and older sewer lines all give roots a way in. We check whether roots are the cause and sort that, rather than just clearing the blockage and seeing you back.
Yes, a lot of them. Mornington has plenty of holiday houses that sit empty for stretches, and problems can go unnoticed until someone's back. We can check a place over, sort anything that's come up, and help keep an eye on the plumbing between visits.
South East Water covers Mornington. If the trouble is at the meter or the street connection, that's their responsibility, and we'll help you work out what's yours and what's theirs before any work starts.
The Peninsula is right on our doorstep, so Mornington and the surrounding Peninsula are well covered, and we're close to Frankston and Hastings too.
Blocked drains, taps and toilets top the list, but we do the full range: hot water, leak detection, burst pipes, gas and general maintenance. Whatever the job, we fix the cause, not just the symptom.
Real prices, in writing, before we touch a thing
$0 call-out. We come out and look things over. If you don't go ahead, you don't pay.
Three repair options. 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.
