Urgent Water Leak resolved by the preferred Lawnton plumbers

14 Feb 2023

What do you do if you come home on a Saturday afternoon and find that water has flooded your ensuite bathroom and bedroom floor? Call Aptus Plumbing & Gas of course. This is what our client did when she suspected a water leak in her Lawnton bathroom and needed plumbers northside. Braided or plastic pipes have become the norm for mixer taps, dishwashers and other water supplied fittings and at some point that spells disaster.

Aptus Plumbing & Gas are committed to providing exceptional customer service and an A grade plumbing experience to our clients. Part of this is having our plumbers on call outside of our business hours and on the weekends, even on the public holidays in Lawnton and all Brisbane and Pine River suburbs.

Our tradesman advised the owner to turn off the mains water supply and within the hour he was onsite to investigate the water leak. He quickly discovered that the mixer hose for the cold water was badly corroded and had split in places. The hot water hose was also showing signs of corrosion. Until the mains water supply was turned off water was pouring from the hose and into the vanity cupboard. Within a short period of time it was running across the bathroom floor and into the bedroom soaking the carpet.

Within a short period of time both mixer hoses were replaced and the owner was able to start the process of cleaning up. While onsite at this Lawnton plumbing emergency, our tradesman checked the mixer hose in the main bathroom and found that those hoses were also showing signs of corrosion. With the owner's approval we changed the hoses which will prevent the owner from finding herself in the same situation in the near future.

Do you know how to check the flex hoses at your property to see if they are corroded or starting to split?
