BUILDING AND PEST INSPECTION TARRAGINDI 4121
With the cost of water getting more expensive and it doesn’t make sense to water your garden with potable water, many people have installed a water tank. It’s great to water your garden at any time convenient to you and not be restricted by council watering times.
As there are so many tanks in backyards, our building inspectors are very familiar with checking them. Depending on the location of the tanks, a poorly maintained water tank could potentially cause damage if there was a major leak or structural failure.
When conducting the building and pest inspection at this property in Tarragindi, our building inspector saw the join to the tank was in poor condition. The deterioration had taken place over time. The dark mouldy trail was evidence of that apart from the seals looking the worst for wear.
One of the issues with seals deteriorating is the possibility the water can become contaminated. Even if the water is only going on the garden, contaminated water is not the best thing for your plants or lawn. It will affect soil quality which has a direct impact on the health of your plants.
A quick call to a plumber to fix the join between the pipe and tank will resolve the problem.
