DOMESTIC PLUMBING

It is encouraged to arrange a plumber to visit to clean the plumbing pipes every 12 to 18 months.

There are at-home techniques for removing sludge, such as using a drain auger, but it is often best to rely on the assistance of a professional plumber to ensure the job is done right.

We would suggest investigating your hot water system as there are various causes. Consult with a professional to find the root of the issue.

A rainwater tank collects water as it runs off of your home. It stores the water and slowly empties it over time.

No, it is illegal to perform your own gas line installation without a licence.

If your tap is still leaking after changing the tap washer, the problem could be the tap seat. The tap seat needs to be ground down and is best carried out by a licensed plumber to avoid further costly repairs.

If water is coming out but not turning hot, then the problem lies with your water heater. If you have an electric heater, you’ll need to contact an electrician. For gas heaters, you should first check the pilot light and if you have no success, get in touch with Murphy’s Plumbing Services.

If you hear a gurgling sound from your drain, that’s an early sign of a blocked drain. Rarely do drains unclog themselves, so if you hear it, get in touch with a plumber as soon as possible. 

If you suspect a gas leak, spray some soapy water around the area and look for bubbles to form. From there, you should contact our plumbers right away who can test your gas service and repair any leaks.
