Plumbers on the Edgeworth run

Plumber Edgeworth, Drains and Hot Water on the Old Colliery Blocks

Plumbers Cameron Park works Edgeworth every week, from the shops on Main Road out to the newer townhouse streets off Northville Drive.

Houses with history under them. The colliery land was subdivided through the 1960s to 80s, and brick-veneer family homes became the norm. At the last census, 88.4 per cent of the 2,484 dwellings were separate houses, so nearly every job is a detached-home job with a yard, mature trees and older pipework.

What the old blocks mean for your pipes

Roots and old clay.

Mature street and backyard trees push roots into the older clay and earthenware sewer lines, a common cause of recurring blockages here. Drainage in the mining-era and post-war pockets is vitrified clay, which cracks and lets roots in as it ages.

Water with nowhere to go.

The suburb sits in the Cockle Creek floodplain, so heavy rain surcharges yard drains and stormwater systems across the low-lying streets. Laurel Avenue, Patterson Avenue and other flat runs are identified as high-hazard in major rain events.

The work we cover

Whatever is going wrong, there is a page for it:

The general plumbing hub covers the everyday repairs, and drainage handles everything from CCTV inspections to hydro-jetting when a line needs a proper scour.

Questions we hear on this run

Why do the drains on the older blocks keep blocking?

Decades-old trees on the established blocks here send roots into ageing clay and earthenware sewers, and a CCTV camera inspection shows whether the line needs a clear or a section replaced.

My hot water unit is over ten years old. Should I replace it?

Much of the post-war brick-veneer stock runs units at or past their service life, so booking a replacement ahead of time beats a cold shower on a winter work morning.

Do you handle stormwater problems in the flood-prone streets?

Yes. Laurel Avenue and Patterson Avenue sit in the creek's floodplain, so we clear, repair and regrade pits and stormwater lines before the heavy summer wet season arrives each year.

Can you come out the same day?

Same-day service applies where the schedule allows, and every job here starts with a $0 call out and a clear written quote before any work begins on your own place.

Do you service the shops around the Town Square?

We do. Commercial plumbing covers shops, medical practices and food premises on Main Road, and the same licensed plumbers handle the family homes behind them all week across the suburb.

What if the job is not up to standard afterwards?

We come back and make it right, no questions asked. That standard holds for every job we take on, from a single tap washer to a full drain or sewer renewal.
