Hot Water in Newtown
Replacing a hot water system in a Newtown terrace is mostly a logistics problem. The unit is usually in a narrow external alcove or an internal cupboard, there is no side access, and the old cylinder has to come out the same way the new one goes in — down the hallway, past the furniture.
No side access for the changeover
Terraces share walls on both sides. A 250 litre cylinder comes through the front door and down the hall, both ways. We plan for it rather than discovering it on the day.
Tight alcoves limiting what fits
Original external recesses were sized for the unit that was there. Upgrading capacity often means checking what will physically fit before anything is ordered.
Conservation area rules on external units
Much of Newtown is heritage-controlled, which can affect where an external unit or a flue is allowed to sit on a street-facing wall.

Common Questions
Hot Water Systems in Newtown
Can you get a new tank into a terrace?
Yes. It comes through the house with drop sheets down, and the old one goes out the same way. It is the normal case here, not an obstacle.
Can I upgrade to a bigger tank?
Often, but not always — the alcove or cupboard sets the limit. We measure before quoting rather than after.
How quickly can hot water be restored?
Most changeovers are done the same day. We carry common units and will tell you on the call whether yours is one of them.

Had trouble with our hot water system for weeks and was unable to figure out the issue. Matt and Anthony came out the same day I enquired and the issue was resolved within an hour. Couldn’t recommend enough!
I would highly recommend Anthony and Matthew from Mr Clog plumbing. They were easy and trustworthy to deal with and fixed my leaking hot water system in no time.
Absolute legend. Turned up on time, sorted the problem quickly and didn’t charge a fortune. Super easy to deal with and cleaned up after the job too. Will definitely be using him again and would happily recomme…
