What's usually behind it in Princes Hill
Princes Hill terraces often have their water service running along a shared side path. We locate it carefully to avoid disturbing neighbours' lines.
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 Princes Hill customers, that usually means same-day service.
Princes Hill has plenty of older cottages and terraces on narrow blocks, where the sewer often runs under the house and access down the side is tight.
