Water Leak – Rosebery

Water Leak – Rosebery
Our team attended a strata-managed commercial property in Rosebery to investigate an ongoing water leak affecting businesses. Upon inspection, we confirmed a burst pipe beneath the building. While the leak initially stopped after new valves were installed, it later resumed, likely due to pipe movement after the valves were fitted.
Our Team:
- Used a demolition saw to cut through concrete above the water main
Jackhammered and removed the concrete
Shut off the water supply to the building and drained the system
Installed a new copper water feed starting at the right-hand-side valve, surface mounting along the external wall to the front corner of the building
Continued surface mounting along the front and left-hand side of the building
Re-entered the ground at the left-hand-side valve to reconnect to the existing line
Bedded the pipe in accordance with standards
Pressure tested the new pipework
Installed steel rebar and mesh in preparation for reinstatement
Re-concreted the driveway area
Cleaned up the site and removed all trade waste
Why was a bypass necessary?
Repairing the burst pipe directly would have caused major disruption to the businesses operating within the building. Instead, we recommended and carried out a full external bypass, running a new copper water feed around the perimeter of the building. This approach allowed us to maintain full functionality with minimal interruption to the occupants.

By far the best trade business I’ve dealt with. Very fast and professional service which genuinely impressed me; super friendly on the phone, scheduled me in straight away, worked around my availability, and called ahead before arriving. George in particular was a legend. He worked through different solution options with me, was transparent with options and costs, did the job quickly but professionally, is helping us source the style of fittings we want through his supplier, and was just an overall very friendly, happy, knowledgeable guy. We have more work to do in the future and we’ll definitely be looking to get George back in the future.Posted on Google![]()

We had our pipes jetted by Liam and Alex last week and they were fabulous. This week we had the pipes relined by Robbie and Ben and they were lovely, professional and went above and beyond to get everything done quickly and efficiently. Kept the house and courtyard clean as well, which was much appreciated. Great experience. 💕 Even got a pen!Posted on Google![]()

George is a good plumber. He is friendly, on time and does the work well. George is transparent about the prices charged by his company well though prices are perhaps slightly on the higher end.
