Patterson Lakes Property Protection Guarantee

Plumbing Compliance Audit

The Your Choice Property Protection Audit
(A $189 Professional Service — Included Free Upon Request)

"Most plumbers fix the leak and leave. We ensure your home is protected for the long term. We bridge the 'Compliance Gap' to protect your family, your appliances, and your insurance standing."

1. Insurance Due Diligence & Flood Prevention
  • The Risk: Burst flexible hoses are the #1 cause of internal flooding in Australia.
  • Our Check: We perform a tactile and visual inspection for "tea-staining" and corrosion to ensure your home remains flood-safe and your insurance is secure.
2. AS/NZS 3500 Pressure Verification
  • The Risk: Melbourne mains pressure often exceeds 700 kPa, yet the National Code (PCA) limits residential pressure to 500 kPa.
  • Our Check: We test your pressure at the meter. Over-pressure is the leading cause of leaking taps, noisy pipes, and failing toilet parts.
3. NCC 2022 Scald-Safe Audit
  • The Risk: Hot water stored at 60°C kills bacteria but can cause 3rd-degree burns in seconds.
  • Our Check: We verify your tempering valves are calibrated to the safety mandate of 50°C, protecting your loved ones from accidental scalding.
We don't just fix a pipe; we provide the regulatory compliance and property security your most valuable asset deserves.

Book any repair today and simply ask for your Free Property Protection Audit. We’ll check your compliance and safety so you can have total peace of mind.

Real Results: A Story from the Road with Sam, Natasha & The Team

Precision Locating of a “Squashed” Stormwater Main

 

Location: Sovereign Close, Patterson Lakes (VIC 3197)

The Challenge: The Mystery of the Flooding Backyard

A homeowner on Sovereign Close contacted us because their backyard turned into a lake every time Patterson Lakes saw a heavy downpour. Initial checks showed the house had modern 90mm uPVC downpipes (no old terracotta), and since there was no street kerb discharge, it was clear the system connected to the Kingston City Council infrastructure via the nature strip. However, the drains were completely backed up, making a standard camera inspection impossible.

The Discovery: Using Sonde & Locator Technology

When a drain is full of water, a camera lens just sees black. To find the “invisible” culprit, we had to switch to high-frequency locating tech:

  • The Problem: The water wasn’t moving, which usually means a blockage, a “flat” pipe with no fall, or a structural collapse.
  • The Tech: We attached a Ridgid Remote Transmitter (512 Hz Sonde) to the end of our hydro-jetter hose. As the jetter propelled the hose down the line, the Sonde sent out a signal from underground.
  • The Precision: The line stopped dead about 8 metres from the downpipe, right near the driveway. We then used our Ridgid NaviTrack Scout® Locator to pick up the signal through the ground. It pinpointed the exact spot and even gave us a depth reading of 350mm below the grass.

The Solution: Excavation and Pipe Restoration

With the location marked, we didn’t have to guess. We dug a 1-metre trench and exposed the 90mm uPVC stormwater pipe.

  • The “Squashed” Pipe: The cause was immediately obvious. The pipe had been completely flattened (squashed), likely by a heavy vehicle or trade machinery parking on the grass during the original construction of the home.
  • The Vulnerability: Unlike the thick 100mm DWV pipes used for sewers, 90mm stormwater pipe is quite thin. Being buried only 300–400mm deep makes it very susceptible to being crushed by surface weight.
  • The Repair: We cut out the damaged 1-metre section, cleared out years of trapped silt and roof debris, and replaced it with brand-new high-quality uPVC.
  • Sourcing: Replacement piping and couplings were sourced from Reece Plumbing in Carrum Downs.

The Verdict

By using the NaviTrack Scout®, we saved the client from a massive excavation bill and hours of “detective” labor. The stormwater now flows freely into the council main, and even the heaviest Patterson Lakes storms won’t flood this backyard again.
