What's usually behind it in Tecoma
Mains pressure in parts of Tecoma can be high, and without a pressure limiting valve, older copper lines are more likely to split.
A burst pipe can do thousands of dollars of damage in an hour. Shut the water off at the meter and call us. We isolate the line, repair or replace the damaged section and pressure-test the system before we leave. For Tecoma customers, that usually means same-day service.
Tecoma is mostly established family homes from the 1950s to the 1980s, many now on their second or third hot water unit.
