Burnside Blocked Drains

The Burnside Experience: Heritage Homes and Modern Problems

Many properties in Burnside feature original plumbing systems that were installed decades ago. These systems were built to last, but they weren’t designed to handle the modern demands of high-pressure appliances or the aggressive root systems of century-old trees.

A Recent Case Study from Burnside: We recently visited a beautiful heritage villa on Greenhill Road. The owners had renovated the interior to a stunning modern standard, but they began noticing water pooling in their laundry. After a quick CCTV inspection, our team found that the original earthenware pipes had succumbed to “ground movement”—a common issue in the Burnside area due to the heavy clay soils.

Because the house was a heritage-listed property, digging up the floor was out of the question. Our team was able to perform a localized pipe repair using a robotic internal packer. We repaired the break from the inside, ensuring the structural integrity of the home remained untouched. The owners were relieved that we could solve a “20th-century problem” with “21st-century technology.”
