Common plumbing problems in Pascoe Vale

These are the faults we genuinely attend more often in Pascoe Vale than elsewhere in Melbourne.

1

Moonee Ponds Creek flooding and backflow

The creek flats take run-off from a wide catchment, and when drainage surcharges water backs up through the lowest fixtures. Non-return valves are worth assessing specifically on these blocks rather than as general advice.

2

Interwar and postwar supply pipework

Galvanised and early copper here are both past design life, producing weak pressure across the house and pinhole leaks in cavities. Discoloured water after a period away is the usual early sign.

3

Terracotta drainage under mature gardens

Established gardens on these blocks sit over original terracotta that is now brittle and root-affected. Once a run starts failing it rarely fails in one place, so we camera the whole length.
