Frequent Issues Our Plumbers See in Footscray
Our plumbers in Footscray encounter these issues daily and arrive prepared with the right equipment for a fix.
Tree Root Invasion in Older Pipes
The mature trees lining Footscray’s streets create a constant battle with ageing terracotta sewer pipes. These brittle, 100-year-old earthenware pipes crack over time, inviting root invasion that causes persistent blockages and slow drainage. We use high-pressure water jetting and CCTV inspection technology to diagnose and clear these blockages without excavating your entire garden.
Hidden Leaks from Mixed Plumbing Systems
Many Footscray homes feature a patchwork of plumbing materials from decades of renovations. You’ll find galvanised steel, copper, and modern PEX pipes all connected in one system. This “renovation roulette” often leads to sudden water damage on ceilings and walls. Our thermal imaging cameras, worth over $11,000 each, detect moisture behind walls without invasive demolition, saving you time and money.
Insoluble Material Clogs
Solids like oils, food scraps, and wet wipes can all clog when disposed of down the drain, instead of the bin where they belong. These blockages can prevent water from flowing down your drains and force dirty sewage back up through your pipes. They can also cause older pipes to crack, and even attract pests like insects and rodents!
