Common Plumbing Problems in Higgins
Leaky Roof Gutters?
Many homes in the area have ageing galvanised steel roof gutters from the 1970s and 1980s. We frequently replace damaged or corroded sections, ensuring proper water flow and preventing structural dama.

The established trees in this suburb cause severe wear on terracotta stormwater pipes. Regular inspections help identify issues early on, reducing the risk of tree branch breakage and subsequent damag potential issues before they become costly repairs.
Burst Water Tanks?
Older galvanised steel water tanks in pre-1960s homes corrode internally, restricting water supply. We often recommend repiping with copper or PEX for a permanent fix, ensuring reliable access to clea.
