Common Plumbing problems in Glenhaven
Blocked Drains and Tree Root Damage
One of the most common plumbing issues we see around Glenhaven is blocked drains caused by tree roots. Many properties in the area have large established trees, and over time, roots can enter sewer or stormwater pipes through small cracks or damaged joints.
Common signs of a blocked drain include:
Toilets gurgling
Slow-draining sinks, showers or baths
Bad smells coming from drains
Water backing up through floor wastes
Sewer or stormwater overflows outside
Drains blocking repeatedly after being cleared
If the same drain keeps blocking, it may not just be a simple blockage. There could be cracked pipework, root intrusion or a broken sewer junction underground.
A CCTV drain inspection can help identify the cause and show whether the pipe needs cleaning, repairing or replacing.
Stormwater Drainage Issues
Glenhaven homes can also experience stormwater drainage problems, especially during heavy rain. If stormwater is not draining away correctly, water can pool around the house, flood low areas, enter subfloors or run back towards walls and doorways.
Common stormwater problems include:
Blocked stormwater pipes
Overflowing pits
Downpipes not connected properly
Water pooling near the house
Damaged or crushed underground stormwater lines
Poor surface drainage around paths, gardens and retaining walls
A properly working stormwater system is important for protecting your home from water damage. If you notice water building up around your property when it rains, it is worth having the drainage inspected before the issue becomes worse.

Hot Water Problems
Hot water systems usually last around 10 to 15 years, depending on the system, usage and maintenance. If your hot water system is leaking, rusty, making unusual noises or struggling to keep up, it may be time for a repair or replacement.
Common signs of a failing hot water system include:
No hot water
Water not getting hot enough
Leaking from the hot water unit
Rust around the tank or valves
Poor hot water pressure
Hot water running out quickly
Precision Pipes can inspect your hot water system and let you know whether it can be repaired or if replacement is the better long-term option.

Leaking Pipes and Water Leaks
Hidden leaks can cause damage if they are not found early. A leaking pipe may be inside a wall, under a floor, underground or around an external water service.
Signs you may have a water leak include:
A higher-than-normal water bill
The water meter moving when no taps are on
Damp walls, ceilings or floors
Mould or musty smells
Water pooling outside
Low water pressure
If you suspect a leak, it is best to have it investigated before it causes further damage to the property.

Plumbing Tips for Glenhaven Homeowners
1. Do not ignore slow drains
A slow drain can be an early warning sign of a bigger blockage. If it keeps happening, it is worth getting the drain inspected before it turns into an overflow.
2. Check your hot water system before winter
Hot water systems often fail when they are under more pressure during colder months. If your system is over 10 years old, leaking or rusty, book an inspection before it breaks down.
3. Keep stormwater pits and drains clear
Leaves, dirt and garden debris can block stormwater pits and drains. Keeping these areas clear helps reduce the risk of flooding during heavy rain.
4. Watch your water meter
If your water meter is moving when all taps and appliances are off, you may have a hidden leak. Early leak detection can help prevent water damage and expensive repairs.
5. Be careful what goes down the drain
Avoid flushing wipes, sanitary products, paper towel, grease or food scraps. These can build up in the pipework and cause blockages.
