Plumber Arncliffe work on re-piping unit blocks in stages
Many mid-century blocks still run on their original galvanised risers, and by now the rust inside has cut the flow and started the leaks. Replacing every riser at once is a big job and a big bill, so most owners corporations do it in stages. We test each riser, show the strata manager which are worst, and plan the work riser by riser, scheduled so residents lose water for as short a time as possible. A plumber Arncliffe strata managers call from us prices each stage separately, so the building can budget for it.
Older brick homes
The older homes have the same galvanised pipe, narrowing with rust, plus storage hot water systems that are often past ten years old. Low pressure, brown water first thing and a tank weeping at the base are the signs. A plumber Arncliffe homeowners book tests the supply and the tank, then prices the work in the order it matters.
New apartments near the station
In the new buildings, most calls start inside one apartment: a mixer that drips, a cistern that keeps running, a dishwasher or washing machine to connect. If the building is still within its warranty period, check with your strata manager before paying for anything that looks like a defect. A plumber Arncliffe apartments book fixes the fault and tells you if it looks like one.
Is the water meter moving?
If your water bill has jumped, turn off every tap and watch the meter for a few minutes. If it moves, water is escaping somewhere. A leaking meter is usually Sydney Water's to fix, while a leak on the house side is yours. A plumber Arncliffe owners call finds which, using pressure testing and thermal imaging, before anything is opened.
Hot water in Arncliffe
In the older homes, hot water usually comes from a storage tank outside or in the laundry. In units, it's often a small tank in a cupboard, so a replacement has to fit the same space. We test the unit and price a repair and a replacement side by side. A plumber Arncliffe households book for hot water takes the old unit away and leaves the warranty paperwork.
Princes Highway shops
Shops, takeaways and businesses along the Princes Highway need grease traps serviced, staff bathrooms that work and backflow devices tested every year. A plumber Arncliffe businesses book schedules the work around trading hours. See our commercial plumbing service.
Blocked drains
Clay sewer lines under the older homes let roots in, and shared lines in the unit blocks catch wipes and fat. A plumber Arncliffe homes call for a blocked drain gets the camera first, then the jetter. See blocked drains in Arncliffe for more, including sewer smells that aren't blockages.
Urgent calls
For a burst pipe, shut the water off at the meter and call our 24/7 line; do the same for a gas smell or sewage coming up through a floor waste. We're 15 to 20 minutes away, and a plumber Arncliffe residents ring after hours gets an honest time from us.
