Plumber Lathlain

Proud Plumbing and Gas works Lathlain and the surrounding Town of Victoria Park suburbs regularly. Lathlain was subdivided into quarter-acre lots in the 1890s but built out largely by the postwar generation, so the housing is older than most people assume and the services under it are older still.

Proud Plumbing Services Lathlain & Nearby Suburbs

Lathlain WA 6100, Town of Victoria Park. About 5 km south-east of the Perth CBD.

Lathlain is an inner south-eastern suburb about five kilometres from the Perth CBD in the Town of Victoria Park. It was subdivided into quarter-acre lots in the 1890s as the Victoria Park Station Estate, though most of the building happened after the Second World War. For a plumber that combination matters: established postwar housing on services well past their prime, sitting on generous original blocks that are now steadily being subdivided.

  • Postwar housing on ageing servicesMost Lathlain homes were built by the postwar generation and still run the water and sewer connections they were given. Galvanised supply narrows internally with corrosion until pressure drops away, and earthenware sewer joints open up and let roots in, and both are age rather than misuse.
  • Generous original quarter-acre blocksThe 1890s subdivision left large lots, and those are now being split. Each new dwelling needs its own water connection and meter plus a sewer junction cut into a main that is decades old, which is careful work worth pricing before a development is committed to.
  • Mature gardens beside old drainageDecades of garden growth mean established trees close to sewer lines that join in short sections. Root intrusion is the most common blockage we clear in Lathlain, and a camera shows whether the pipe warrants relining or whether periodic clearing will do.
  • Close in on our regular runAt five kilometres from the city Lathlain sits on the corridor our vans work daily, so there is usually someone within minutes. For a burst pipe at an awkward hour that matters more than anything else about the suburb.

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm subdividing my Lathlain block. What plumbing is involved?
Each new dwelling needs its own water connection and meter, plus a sewer junction cut into the existing main, which here is decades old. The cost varies with what is actually in the street, so it is worth having priced before you commit rather than discovering it partway through the build.
My water pressure has dropped gradually. What causes it?
Corroded galvanised supply pipe, in most established Lathlain houses. The bore narrows internally over the decades until the flow falls away slowly enough that you stop noticing. No tap or filter restores it; replacing the affected run does.
Why do my drains keep blocking?
Tree roots in earthenware sewer joints. The gardens here are decades mature and the pipe beside them joins in short sections. Ring (08) 6185 3008 and we will clear it and camera the line so you can see whether relining is worthwhile.
