Step 1. What's the problem?

Original cottage, new rebuild, or both?

Forestville, NSW 2087, has a mix of homes. You will see older timber cottages beside bigger newer homes. Some owners are renovating the originals. Renovations are where old and new pipes meet.

Brown or weak water

Water that runs brown, or a trickle at the tap, can have several causes. Ask a licensed plumber to look. Describe what the water looks like and we will pass it on.

Renovating? Ask about the pipes

New bathrooms and kitchens are the best time to check the old pipework behind them. A licensed plumber can say what is worth replacing now. Planning a bathroom or kitchen job? Tell us the rooms involved.

Which home is yours?

What to check first depends on its age.

Check the taps and the pressure

Older pipework can show its age at the tap first.

  1. Run each tap for a minute. Note any brown water or a weak flow.
  2. Tell the plumber which taps, and whether it is hot, cold or both.
