Help! I have Burst Water Pipes

Burst pipe repair Caulfield South

Boon has been another customer that Doherty Plumbing Solutions has assisted on several occasions. Recently, we were called into Boon’s property to investigate a suspected burst pipe issue.

There were early warning signs, with high water bills and pooling of water noticed coming through the timber flooring.

Our plumbing professional Shea attended the call on-site. The customer had already cut through the floor to open access to the pipe, which made the work quicker.

Shea detected the damaged section of the copper pipe, as the water was spurting out of the compression tee. A new section was fitted after isolating the water supply and secured with the B-press tool.

After re-instating the water supply, Shea tested the new copper pipe fitting. Everything was working just fine!

Another job well done by our plumbing crew, and Boon was very satisfied with the assistance. He left a 5-star Google review for us, particularly impressed with our plumber’s pleasant and professional approach when tackling his difficult plumbing issue. Thank you, Boon, for your support and feedback.

    Came same day as I called to fix broken tap that couldn’t be turned off (had to turn water off at mains to stop flooding). Third time I’ve used them within 12 months for different issues. Very helpful, professional staff and reasonable pricing. Highly recommended.

    The team from Doherty Plumbing responded promptly to my emergency call to unblock the sewer drain in our backyard. Tim and Angus were professional, courteous and thorough in their work. I highly recommend this business to take care of your plumbing issues.

    Doherty plumbing work was excellent. Very responsive, arrived on time and fixed the issue quickly. Brian and his crew kept me informed at every step and I could not be happier with the end result.

    George came; did my work quietly and respectfully. Noted a problem (big gaping crack in the pipe under the bench), and asked if we would like to change it. No pressure applied, and just added it to his list when I gave the go ahead. Would use this company again and again.

    The first gentleman I arranged the appointment with at Doherty Plumbing was most helpful & the attending plumber was a lovely, polite young man who arrived promptly, worked efficiently & completed the job well. Greatly appreciated.

    I rang them early morning & they arrived on the same day. They found the leak which was under the house, fixed it promptly. The plumber was helpful & friendly, communicated well. I'll use them again.
