Common Plumbing Problems in Charnwood

Leaky Roof?

Many homes in the area have ageing galvanised roof cladding with damaged flashings, often due to water infiltration from wind and poor joinery. Regular inspections help identify leaks before they caus potential issues before they become costly repairs.

Blocked Stormwater Drains?

The established trees in this suburb cause root intrusion in terracotta stormwater pipes. Regular CCTV inspections help catch issues before they cause major damage.

Poor Shower Water Temperature?

Older galvanised steel pipes in pre-1970s homes corrode internally, restricting flow. We often recommend repiping with copper or PEX for a permanent fix to improve shower water temperature consistency issues before they cause major damage.

From Our Plumbers

"For hot water issues in Charnwood, we carry common replacement parts in our vans. About 70% of hot water problems we see are thermostat or element failures, which our plumbers can often fix same-day without needing a full system replacement." — Fix-It Right Plumbing Team, Canberra
