Melbourne plumbing: what makes it different

Melbourne has some specific plumbing considerations that affect local homeowners:

• Old bluestone terrace plumbing — Melbourne’s inner suburbs are full of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with lead or galvanised steel pipes well past their service life. Lead pipe replacement is a priority health and safety issue
• Slab-on-ground homes — Melbourne’s post-war housing boom created many slab-on-ground homes. Slab leaks are a significant issue in these properties as copper pipes embedded in the concrete corrode over decades
• Hard water in eastern suburbs — Melbourne’s eastern suburbs receive harder water than the western suburbs, accelerating scale buildup in hot water systems and tapware
• Gas heating reliance — Melbourne’s cold winters mean gas heating is central to most homes. Gas heater installation and servicing is a major part of our Melbourne work
