Plumber Kanahooka

Kanahooka runs down from the ridge to the water, and the plumbing changes as you go. Up the top it is split-level brick from the 1970s and 80s. Down towards Kanahooka Point and the Mullet Creek flats the ground is low, damp and sandy, and that matters more than people expect.

A high water table does two things to a drainage system. It lets groundwater seep into any cracked or open joint in an old sewer line, which is why some Kanahooka drains run slow all winter and behave themselves all summer. It also means stormwater has nowhere to go in a heavy dump of rain, so overflow relief gullies do the job they were installed for and everyone finds out where theirs is.

Common plumbing jobs in Kanahooka

• Blocked and slow sewer lines, often with groundwater and root intrusion together
• Stormwater lines and pits that struggle on the low-lying blocks
• Water leaks in the yard and under slabs, located properly before anything gets dug
• Hot water systems on the older split-level homes up the hill
• Leaking taps, toilets and worn tap sets

Blocked drains and emergencies

Blocked drains are the most common emergency we get called to anywhere, and near the lake they are worth taking seriously early. If your gully is overflowing or the toilet is slow, the line wants a camera down it, not a guess.

After-hours call-outs are available. Extra charges apply and depend on the job, and Brad tells you what it costs on the phone before he heads out.
