Plumber in Rakovica
Plumber for Rakovica, from the Vidikovac tower blocks and the buildings of Miljakovac and Kanarevo brdo to the houses of Miljakovac 3, Suncani breg and Resnik.
A plumber in Rakovica works in flats in Vidikovac, Labudovo brdo and Petlovo brdo, in Kijevo and Knezevac and in houses in Resnik and Miljakovac 3, from replacing a tap to new bathroom pipework. Vidikovac has tower blocks of up to 24 floors, so for any fault the first questions are the floor and whether the water is weak only in the flat or in the whole entrance.
Rakovica was built in waves: Kanarevo brdo and Labudovo brdo from the 1960s, Miljakovac 1 and 2 in the early 1970s and Vidikovac at the end of the 1970s, where a large share of the tower blocks later had several floors added. Miljakovac 3, a self-grown settlement of private houses developing since the 1990s, and Suncani breg, which arose the same way, have no shared risers, so the installation is checked from each house's own connection.
For a flat in a Vidikovac tower, give the floor and, if you know, whether it is in the original part of the building or on an added floor. For a house in Resnik, which lies mostly on a hill, say where the water meter chamber is and which road gives the easiest approach to the address.
What most often goes wrong in Rakovica
- A leak on the riser in the Vidikovac towers that had floors added, where pipes from two periods meet in the same run.
- Replacing the original pipes and valves in flats in Miljakovac 1 and 2 and Kanarevo brdo.
- The water meter chamber in the yard and the valve after the meter in the houses of Miljakovac 3 and Suncani breg.
- Floor gullies and drains in basements and ground floors in the valley of the Topciderska river, which flooded across Rakovica in May 2014.
- A sanitary pump for a WC or shower in the basement of a house in Resnik or Kijevo, when the basement lies below the sewer connection.
- Replacing the bath and shower tray traps in the bathrooms of the Vidikovac towers, when water from the drain leaks into the flat below.
