What's usually behind it in Footscray
Space is tight in Footscray terraces, so we often fit compact continuous-flow units on an external wall to free up room inside.
No hot water usually means a failed thermostat, pilot, element or valve, and sometimes a tank that has reached the end of its life. We carry common parts in the van and stock popular replacement units so you're not waiting days.
Many Footscray homes are workers' cottages and Victorian or Edwardian houses, often still on original clay sewers and galvanised water pipes.
When to call
- No hot water, or it runs out quickly
- Water that is lukewarm or too hot
- Water leaking from the base of the tank
- A pilot light that won't stay lit

Hot Water in Footscray: common questions
Repair or replace?
If a unit is under about 8 to 10 years old and the tank isn't leaking, a repair is usually worth it. We'll tell you straight.
Can you replace my hot water today?
Often, yes. We keep common gas and electric units in stock for Footscray jobs.
Which system is cheapest to run?
It depends on household size and your energy tariffs. Heat pumps and continuous flow are often cheaper to run than older storage tanks.
Do you take the old unit away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old unit is included in replacement quotes.
