Common issues
Issues Ryan sees across Cairns
Dripping taps & running toilets
A dripping tap wastes over 20,000 litres a year. Running toilets are worse. Both are usually a straightforward fix — new washers, valves, or internal components — but left alone they add up on your water bill.
Burst or leaking pipes
Cairns' heat and ground movement put pressure on ageing pipework. A small leak behind a wall can cause serious water damage before you notice it. Ryan locates the source, repairs the pipe, and checks for secondary damage.
Old or faulty fixtures
Older homes across Cairns often have dated tapware, cisterns, and fittings that are well past their service life. Upgrading to modern fixtures improves water efficiency and reliability.
