What's usually behind it in Mernda
In Mernda, burst pipes are often a flexi hose or a fitting nicked during building work. We isolate it, replace it and check the rest of the run.
A burst pipe can do thousands of dollars of damage in an hour. Shut the water off at the meter and call us. We isolate the line, repair or replace the damaged section and pressure-test the system before we leave. For Mernda customers, that usually means same-day service.
Most Mernda homes are recent estate builds, so plumbing is modern, but early failures in flexi hoses, shower bases and hot water units are common.
