A Postwar Pocket Above the Rail Cutting

One era of pipe under a small grid

At the last census this suburb counted 936 residents across 329 dwellings, and separate houses made up 97 per cent of them. Nearly all of it went up in the postwar decades as brick veneer, fibro and weatherboard homes, so the pipes under the compact grid are mostly of one age and give out together.

Steel on its last legs

Original galvanised water services still run under part of this compact postwar grid, and rust has narrowed some of them almost shut. Homes held by the same owners for a long stretch can still have a tank fitted by a previous owner, squeezed into a side passage that makes the swap fiddly.

Roots working the old joints

Verge trees and the vegetation belt along the Fernleigh Track keep feeding roots into the 1950s-era earthenware joints under these small yards. The reactive clay beneath shifts those joints seasonally, so a line that ran fine last year can choke again without warning.

Fast-shedding ground, low-corner trouble

Blocks perched above the old rail cutting shed stormwater quickly, and the low corners of the grid cop the ponding when street pits silt up. Area figures put rainfall at 1,128 millimetres a year, much of it landing in summer storms, so those pits fill fast.

The Plumbing Work This Run Covers

Whatever the fault, the booking starts the same way, and the right hub on this site explains the work in detail:

Blocked drains

Root chokes and silted pits cleared, with the footage shown to you afterwards

Hot water

Repairs and replacements on the ageing tanks, with a loan tank if the old one has already given out

Gas fitting

Cooktop, oven, BBQ and pool heater connections by licensed gas fitters, plus leak detection

Emergency plumbing

Burst steel services, split flexi hoses and storm surcharge at the low gullies, day or night

Leak detection and strata work run through the same booking line, and the fixed figure arrives in writing before any of it starts.

Highfields Plumbing Questions

Can you get a plumber to Highfields on a weekend?

Yes. We are available 24/7, every day of the year, and a Sunday booking here is taken the same way as a Tuesday one. Attendance outside standard hours is charged at the after-hours rate, and you hear that figure before anyone leaves for the job.

Our house still has old steel water pipes. Do they need replacing?

If the taps are running slow and the water runs brown after work elsewhere on the street, the steel service is likely closing up with rust. We test the flow at the meter and quote a renewal to copper, with the fixed figure in writing first.
