1300 012 709Recent Job: Damaged Water Pipe Re-Routed at an Inner-City Sydney Home
A damaged section of copper water pipe was running beneath the concrete at an inner-city Sydney home. Because the faulty section was difficult to reach, a new cold-water line needed to be installed around it.
We removed part of the concrete, exposed the old pipe and isolated the water supply. We then removed the old pipework and installed a new copper line and garden tap.
The new pipe was secured beneath the home, connected to the existing water service and tested. No leaks were found. We protected the pipework, reinstated the concrete and cleaned the area.
If the damaged pipe had failed beneath the slab, it could have caused a hidden water leak that went unnoticed. This could have wasted water, caused ongoing dampness and required a much larger section of concrete to be removed.
