Common Plumbing Problems in Burwood
Ageing Hot Water Systems?
Many Burwood homes were built in the 1950s–1970s, and original storage hot water systems are well past their lifespan. We see frequent thermostat and element failures in electric systems, and pilot light issues in older gas units. Our plumbers carry common replacement parts and can often restore hot water same-day.
Blocked Drains?
Established trees along streets like Highbury Road and Elgar Road send roots into ageing clay and earthenware sewer pipes, causing slow drainage and blockages. We use CCTV drain cameras to locate the intrusion point and high-pressure jet blasters to clear the blockage and restore full flow.
Leaking Taps and Toilets?
Worn washers, degraded ceramic discs, and faulty cistern valves are common in Burwood's older housing stock. A dripping tap can waste over 20,000 litres of water per year. Our plumbers carry a full range of replacement parts to fix leaking taps and running toilets on the spot.
From Our Plumbers
"For hot water issues in Burwood, 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, Melbourne
