Recent Work Near Redfern
Real jobs from our own records, completed in the surrounding suburbs.
Of the 7,256 private dwellings the 2021 Census counts in Redfern, 68% are flats or apartments and 62% are rented. That shapes the plumbing: shared stacks and risers, concealed in-wall cisterns, hot water units tucked into cupboards or on balconies, and a body corporate or property manager to keep in the loop. Our Redfern job notes keep returning to the same culprit: roots in old clay sewer lines. Clay was the standard pipe until the late 1970s and every joint in it is an entry point once it cracks, which is why the fix that lasts here is a camera inspection followed by no-dig relining rather than another clear. If you would rather not find out the hard way, our VIP members get a free annual home inspection that checks the drains, taps and hot water before anything fails.
Our plumber attended a Redfern property in July 2026 for a leaking shower head. The hot seat was cracked beyond reseating. We advised the client that new seats would be required. We installed leak lock washers as a temporary solution.
In June 2026, a Redfern customer reported a hot water leak and believed the unit needed replacing. Our plumbers drained the existing hot water system. We then supplied and installed a new Therman 125L hot water system with all new valves. The system was tested and commissioned, with no leaks detected, and was heating up.
In April 2026, a Chippendale resident reported a suspected water leak in an apartment wall. Our plumber attended and performed pressure tests on the hot, cold, and recycled water lines, and a dye test on the cistern and pan. No leaks were found in the pipework. The plumber identified a split dishwasher drainage hose beneath the cabinetry, which was soaking through to the next room. We provided a quote for further works.

In June 2026, a Waterloo customer wanted a new cooktop and kitchen tap installed. Our plumber installed the customer-supplied cooktop and mixer tap. We tested all works and adjusted the pull-out mixer weight.
Related: Gas leak detection
In April 2026, our plumber attended a business in Waterloo for a blocked toilet. The blockage was isolated to one toilet and resolved with a plunge. We then completed a CCTV inspection of the line, which checked out and flowed fine.
Our plumber attended a Surry Hills property in June 2026 to investigate a reported gas leak. A comprehensive gas leak detection test was carried out on all accessible gas pipework, fittings, and appliances. A gas leak was detected at the union connection of the existing hot water system isolation ball valve. After re-tightening the existing union and re-monitoring with a soapy water test, no further leaks were found on the gas service at that stage.

Answer:
You have probably heard of hard water and fresh water. The difference between the two comes from the limestone levels they contain: hard water is the one that has a greater amount of limestone while fresh water has less.
It is called hard water when it contains a high level of minerals, specifically magnesium and calcium salts. These waters are usually subterranean soils of limestone, which increases the levels of limestone and magnesium, among others. Hard water also leaves more residues, for example, limestone on the drains and pipes, causing problems in the house. It is for this reason that in geographical areas with hard water, it is recommended to use products that avoid the formation of limestone.
Answer:
A desire to relax in a warm bath to relax from a hard days work but there is a problem: there is no more hot water. A shower with cold water wakes you up but its not very pleasant.
Different type of breakdown
Two types of failures can be the source of a disappearance of hot water. Hydraulic failure and electrical failure:
You notice that the hot water is no longer flowing or that the flow is too low, so it is a hydraulic failure. The intervention of a professional plumber will be necessary in this case.
Answer:
Drain cleaners on the shelf - they might work like a charm and the problem will be solved. Other times, however, it barely works against the clog to get it out of the pipes and a plumber is required. It solves the problem but sometimes warns that using a liquid cleaner can damage your pipes.
Liquid drain cleaners are chemical or enzymatic based. They burn or eat obstructions in the drains. Enzymatic cleaners essentially digest the blockage and rarely cause damage to the pipes. Chemical cleaners work because of their reactive nature. The interaction of the chemical with the material causing clogging creates a gaseous heat to burn it.
Answer:
Poor water pressure is often caused by clogged pipes and may also be due to reduced pressure in the water line due to leaks, equipment failures or blocked service hoses, but most faucets are equipped with a water limiter. For new faucets, the pressure may be lower than the old faucets could provide. When it comes to an old installation, the truth is that we get used to the pressure of the shower faucet and maybe we do not realize that we have only a thin trickle of water and we think it is enough. Contact our professional plumbers if you cannot fix the issue on your own.
