Challenges Our Plumbers in Maribyrnong See the Most

Our team can recognise the signs of many different plumbing issues immediately, saving you time and money on unnecessary repairs. Our plumbers in Maribyrnong often have to address:

Blocked Drains from Mature Tree Roots

The beautiful River Red Gums lining streets near The Esplanade are a Maribyrnong icon, but their aggressive root systems wreak havoc on older earthenware pipes. These terracotta pipes, common in post-war brick veneer homes throughout the area, crack under root pressure, leading to chronic blockages that simple drain cleaning won’t fix.

Pipe Damage from Reactive Clay Soil

Maribyrnong’s reactive clay soil is another cause of pipe failures across the suburb. This soil expands and contracts dramatically with Melbourne’s variable weather, putting constant stress on underground plumbing. Both older terracotta pipes and newer PVC installations can crack or displace under this pressure, causing sudden leaks that threaten your home’s foundation.

Internal Pipe Blockages

Trying to flush makeup wipes or nappies, or letting your meal scraps disappear down the sink are both surefire roads to a nasty clog inside your pipes. These materials can get stuck, absorb water, swell, and catch other items, leading to a growing blockage that will eventually cause water to backup through your drains.
