Plumber Figtree

Figtree runs from the highway up towards Mount Kembla, so a good part of the suburb is on a slope with a retaining wall somewhere in the yard. Most of the housing is brick veneer from the sixties and seventies on blocks with big established trees, and American Creek collecting the run-off. Mature gardens are lovely to look at and hard on a sewer line.

Common plumbing jobs in Figtree

• Tree roots in clay sewer lines, the standard Figtree call-out, helped along by decades of established garden
• Stormwater on the sloping blocks up towards Figtree Heights, where water arrives faster than the pits can take it
• Bathroom and kitchen renovations in the seventies brick homes finally getting updated, including relocating waste and water
• Hot water replacements, usually the second or third unit that house has had
• Gas fitting for cooktops, heaters and continuous flow systems

Blocked drains and emergencies

Blocked drains are the most common emergency we are called to, and in Figtree it is roots nine times out of ten. We camera the line so you can see what is in there, clear it, and give you an honest read on whether pipe relining is worth doing or whether a clean will hold it for a few more years. After-hours call-outs are available. Extra charges apply depending on the job, and Brad tells you the cost on the phone first.
