Get a Fast QuoteWhy Petrie Terrace Needs Local Plumbers
Petrie Terrace’s inner-city vibe and heritage homes make plumbing a bit of a puzzle. Small lots and confined underfloor spaces mean we have to get creative, especially with drainage. We’ve worked on cottages near Caxton Street where old pipes were tucked in tight spots, needing careful fixes to avoid damaging heritage façades. Our team keeps noise and mess low, perfect for renters and young professionals.
Problems We See Often in Petrie Terrace
The mix of old terraces and newer apartments in Petrie Terrace brings specific plumbing issues. Here’s what we fix most weeks:
- Blocked drains from grease buildup in apartment kitchens
- Leaky old taps in heritage cottages
- Stormwater pooling due to limited yard drainage
- Hot water system failures in cramped underfloor spaces
- Cracked clay pipes under terraces from ground settling
- Low pressure from corroded pipes in older homes
- Backflow problems in mixed-use buildings near the Barracks
Hot Water Systems in Petrie Terrace
Hot water systems in Petrie Terrace’s cottages and apartments are often old and squeezed into tiny spaces. We install and repair gas systems, electric systems, and heat pump systems, making sure they fit your home’s setup. Last week, we replaced a failing unit in a terrace near the Barracks precinct, getting hot water back in a few hours. We also offer same-day emergency repairs for when your shower goes cold unexpectedly.
Blocked Drains and CCTV Inspections
Blocked drains are common in Petrie Terrace, especially in older homes with clay pipes. Tree roots and grease can cause big problems. We use CCTV drain cameras to check inside pipes without digging, saving your yard or driveway. For example, we cleared a kitchen drain in an apartment on Caxton Street using a high-pressure jet blaster, finding grease buildup from years of use. Our trenchless pipe relining fixes cracks without tearing up your property.

- Clear kitchen drains monthly with hot water and vinegar to prevent grease buildup.
- Check taps for leaks every few months, especially in older cottages.
- Keep an eye on small yards after rain for pooling water, a sign of drainage issues.
- Test your hot water system yearly to avoid sudden failures in tight spaces.
- Consider a smart leak detector for apartments to catch issues early.
Heritage Cottage Plumbing Fixes
Petrie Terrace’s pre-war cottages often have outdated plumbing hidden in cramped underfloor spaces. We upgrade old pipes and taps while keeping the heritage look intact. In a recent job we did, we fixed a leaky pipe under a cottage near Caxton Street, using trenchless relining to avoid digging up the tiny yard. We also replace old galvanized pipes with modern ones to boost water pressure without harming the home’s charm.
What Sets Us Apart in Petrie Terrace
We’re not your average plumber. We know Petrie Terrace’s tight streets and heritage rules, so we work quietly and after hours to suit renters and professionals. Our tools, like CCTV cameras and high-pressure jets, mean less mess and faster fixes. We give clear quotes, send job photos, and clean up after every job. Plus, we’re quick, quite often with same-day service for jobs near the Barracks or Caxton Street.
Creative Stormwater Solutions
Limited yard space in Petrie Terrace makes stormwater drainage tricky. We design custom solutions like compact sumps or redirected downpipes to stop pooling. We helped an apartment block near the Barracks precinct fix flooding by rerouting stormwater to a nearby drain, keeping the courtyard dry. Our low impact methods work around small lots and heritage façades, so your property stays untouched.
We can also fit smart controllers that monitor usage and alert you to leaks, giving you more control over your supply.

I had Tom from Weekend Plumbing Co. come out this morning, and I couldn’t be happier. From the moment I booked the appointment, the communication was smooth and friendly. Tom arrived on time, was professional, and took the time to explain what needed to be done before getting started. The quality of the work was excellent — efficient, thorough, and tidy. I would definitely recommend Weekend Plumbing Co. to anyone looking for reliable and top-notch plumbing service!
-
Tom came out to assess our blocked kitchen drains, he went above and beyond to ensure the sink was draining before he left. Even though we couldn’t afford the whole works required today, the quote was reasonable but out of my budget this week - he went to work with his plunger and made sure the sink was draining to see us through the next couple of weeks until we book in for repairs and maintenance. Really polite and punctual, highly recommend this business, especially grateful for Tom’s help today!
-
