A customer from Blackburn anxiously called the Doherty Plumbing Solutions office recently, reporting a potential water leak near their water meter. They had also noticed higher water bills than usual, and there was pooling of water near the meter.

We received a call from a customer in Blackburn South, who reported low water pressure and no hot water to their household. The Doherty Plumbing Solutions office dispatched Tim and Kallista from our team to attend the property. After investigating, they found that the main water line had been damaged due to garage construction works, leading to loss of pressure to the water flow. Our crew got down to work, replacing the damaged section of the water pipe. Great work team.
