Older Cranbourne homes, older plumbing
Cranbourne is the established heart of this part of Casey, and many of its homes date back decades. That means clay sewer pipes, galvanised water pipes in some houses and hot water units in laundries and roof spaces rather than outside. Roots are a common cause of blocked drains here, particularly near mature gums and hedges, and old galvanised pipes can rust through and reduce water pressure. We camera drains before recommending a repair and replace rusted pipe sections with copper or PEX.
Renovating a Cranbourne home
When an older Cranbourne home is renovated, the plumbing is often the hidden cost. Moving a bathroom, adding an ensuite or converting a laundry may reveal old pipes that are worth replacing while the walls are open. We give you a clear quote that separates what must be done from what is optional.
Gas safety in older homes
Older homes are more likely to have open-flued gas heaters and older gas appliances. Servicing them every two years is important for carbon monoxide safety. We service heaters, test for leaks and can cap off old gas points when appliances are removed.
Clyde ground
Clyde homes sit on heavy basalt clay that swells after rain and shrinks hard over summer. Drains laid in that clay move with it, so joints open up and roots find their way in. On the new estates the ground has been cut and filled for house pads, which can leave sewer lines with a slight belly that holds water and collects waste. When we clear a drain or chase a leak in Clyde, we keep that soil in mind and use a camera to check the line rather than guessing.
