Mountain pipe
burst in the cold?
We'll fix it.

In the Blue Mountains, water freezes and expands in exposed pipes, in roof spaces and under houses, and the split often shows only when it thaws. Steep blocks can also mean high water pressure. We find the leak, repair it and advise on protection.

Burst pipes in Blue Mountains

Cold weather is the Blue Mountains' burst pipe season. Water freezes and expands in exposed pipes outside, in roof spaces and under houses, and the split often only shows up when it thaws. Homes on steep blocks can also have high water pressure, which strains pipes and fittings year-round. We find the leak, repair it and advise on protecting the pipework.

Worth knowing locally

Insulate exposed pipes and know where your main tap is before winter.
A burst pipe in a roof space or under the house can run for hours unnoticed, so check there if you see ceiling stains or hear running water.
High water pressure on steep blocks strains pipes and taps, so ask us to check it if leaks keep recurring.

Straight answers

Questions
we get a lot.

My pipes froze and now they're leaking. What do I do?

Turn off the water at the main, switch off the hot water system if it's involved, open taps to drain the pipes, photograph the damage and call us.

Which Blue Mountains suburbs do you cover for burst pipes?

Springwood, Katoomba, Leura, Blaxland, Glenbrook, Faulconbridge, Winmalee and Wentworth Falls, 24/7.

How do I thaw a frozen pipe safely?

Don't use a naked flame. Turn off the water at the main and call us. A frozen pipe may already be split, and thawing it without a repair can start a leak.

Does high water pressure really damage pipes?

Yes. Constant high pressure strains pipes, joints and taps. A pressure-limiting valve can protect the system, and we can test the pressure at your property.
