Plumber Keiraville

Keiraville sits between the university and Mount Keira, and that shapes the work. A lot of the older homes along Robsons Road and the surrounding streets have been converted into share houses and student rentals, so bathrooms and kitchens built for a family of four are now doing duty for six or seven people. Fixtures wear out faster and blockages arrive sooner.

Common plumbing jobs in Keiraville

• Blocked toilets and drains in share houses, usually wipes, and occasionally items we do not need to describe
• Hot water systems undersized for the number of people using them, running cold by the third shower
• Leaking taps, mixers and cisterns that nobody reports until the water bill or the inspection
• Sloping blocks under Mount Keira, with stormwater from the hill running through backyards and into pits that fill quickly
• Roots in the sewer lines under the older homes near Gleniffer Brae, where the trees have had decades to get established

Blocked drains and emergencies

Blocked drains are the most common emergency we attend here and the volume goes up around semester. We locate the blockage instead of guessing, clear it, and tell landlords honestly whether it was the pipe or the people. After-hours call-outs are available. Extra charges apply depending on the job, and Brad gives you the cost on the phone before he leaves.
