If you're in Urrbrae and something's gone wrong with water, drains, or pipes, you'll want someone who knows the area. The older housing stock means older infrastructure — that's just the reality. We've worked enough of these foothills suburbs to understand what goes wrong and when. City of Mitcham's got heritage homes mixed in with newer builds, and both have their own quirks. Give us a call when you need it, not after you've tried YouTube.
- Clay sewer line blockages — older suburbs mean older sewers, especially in wet months
- Burst copper pipes from tree root damage in established gardens
- Leaking gutters and downpipes after heavy rain — post-war homes often have original or aging systems
- Water pooling around older slab homes after sustained rainfall
- Drain backing up into lower-level bathrooms during wet season
- Failed poly pipe repairs from DIY attempts in 70s-80s renovations
- Broken storm water pits and cracked clay pipes under driveways
- Leaking taps and cisterns — older homes, older fittings that just wear out
