Flooding From Burst Pipes On The Gold Coast Is More Common Than You My Think!

The Flood Fixers team is kept busy with cleaning up water damage after flooding from burst pipes on The Gold Coast. Whilst we don’t experience the cold winters of other parts of Australia, which can lead to frozen pipes, we are still prone to general wear and tear of pipes, aging, corrosion, degrading washers and fittings all of which can lead to burst pipe water damage.

Many Gold Coast homes — particularly older properties in suburbs such as, Nerang, Southport, Miami — still have original pipes and plumbing that may be many years old. Over time this plumbing can suffer from corrosion, wear and tear , ground movement in the foundations can often cause pipe leaks and even full pipe bursts.

Commercial burst pipes in offices, shops, large buildings and show rooms, often have undetected leaks, due to a lack of general maintenance these undetected leaks can slowly drip for a long period of time until they eventually burst and cause major flooding.
