Plumbing in Lane Cove
Lane Cove is one of Sydney’s leafiest suburbs, and those big trees are hard on old sewer pipes. Older homes in Longueville and Riverview often have original pipework, while the apartments around the village need reliable strata plumbing and hot water servicing.
Older homes on sloping blocks
Many homes sit on sloping blocks running down to the river, with sandstone and big trees close to the house. A CCTV camera shows exactly where the problem is, so we only dig where we have to and look after gardens, paving and stonework.
Apartments around the village
Around Lane Cove village and Longueville Road: blocked shared stacks, showers leaking into the unit below, and hot water units that are hard to reach. We find the cause quickly and keep disruption to other residents low. See strata plumbing.
Hot water and gas
We repair or replace electric and gas systems and explain the running costs of each. As licensed gas fitters we also fix gas leaks and connect cooktops, heaters and gas hot water.
Common Lane Cove jobs
- Tree root blockages in sewer and stormwater lines
- CCTV inspections to find cracked or collapsed pipes
- Hot water repairs and replacements
- Strata plumbing for apartment buildings
- Gas fitting, leaking taps and toilets
Honest second opinions
Told by another plumber that your pipe has collapsed or needs a big dig? We put our own camera down the line and show you the footage. More than once, a much smaller job fixed it.
