What we see locally

Inner-city terraces often have their water service running along a shared side path. We locate it carefully to avoid disturbing neighbours' lines.

In Essendon, Coburg and Camberwell, we often find older pipes that have been patched before. We'll tell you if a section is worth replacing rather than repairing again.

In Point Cook, Craigieburn and Mernda, burst pipes are often a flexi hose or a fitting nicked during building work. We isolate it, replace it and check the rest of the run.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

Where is my water meter?

In your suburb, it's usually at the front boundary, often near the footpath or in a small pit. We can help you find it over the phone.

Will insurance cover a burst pipe?

Many policies cover sudden damage from a burst pipe but not the pipe repair itself. We provide a report to help with the claim.

Can you fix it at night?

Yes. We attend burst pipes 24/7.

Why did my pipe burst?

Common causes are age and corrosion, high water pressure, and ground movement. We'll tell you what caused yours.
