Plumbing Fixes for Post-War Brick and Timber Homes in Wavell Heights, Brisbane

Turn off the laundry tap quickly and there's a loud bang in the wall, followed by a shudder through the pipes. It happens with the washing machine too, every time the valve snaps shut. That knocking is called water hammer, and in Wavell Heights homes with older pipework it can loosen joints, damage valves and eventually cause leaks inside the walls.

Wavell Heights sits on rolling hills on Brisbane's northside, and much of the housing dates from the post-war boom of the 1950s and 60s, with a mix of brick and timber homes on decent-sized blocks. Plenty of these houses still have original galvanised water pipe and clay sewer lines, which corrode and crack after decades in reactive clay soil. Sloping blocks also send a lot of stormwater toward the lower side of the property, and mature trees in established backyards are always on the hunt for a leaking sewer joint.

Fallon Solutions has been fixing plumbing in Wavell Heights homes for a long time. Our experienced plumbers can fit water hammer arrestors, adjust pressure, replace worn valves and repipe sections of old galvanised line so the knocking stops and your plumbing lasts.

Our Comprehensive Wavell Heights Plumbing Services

Post-war houses on sloping blocks keep our Wavell Heights plumbers busy year round. Here's what local households most often need help with, whether the house is original or has been renovated a few times over the years:

  • Maintenance Plumbing: Water hammer arrestors, pressure limiting valves and replacement of rusted galvanised pipe to quieten noisy plumbing and stop leaks before they rot the wall frame.
  • Sewer and Drain Plumbing: Repairs to cracked clay sewer lines and new connections for extensions, granny flats and bathroom additions at the back of the block.
  • Pipe Relining: Fixing damaged sewer pipe from the inside, which avoids digging up established gardens and concrete paths that have been there for decades.
  • Stormwater Drainage: Better drainage on sloping blocks so runoff stops pooling against the house or the neighbour's fence.
  • Hot Water Repairs: Thermostats, elements and relief valves replaced on older electric and gas units, or a new system if the old one is past saving.
  • Emergency Plumber: Burst pipes and sewer overflows handled day or night by our 24/7 team.
