Hot Water on the Creek Flats
A suburb on its third tank
The Blackwood estate went in beside the station from 1908, and most of its cottages followed once the war ended, with later brick homes spreading toward the racecourse. The 2021 census counted 1532 dwellings here, 87.5 per cent of them separate houses, so most homes still run a family-sized storage tank.
Ground that stays wet
Peaty, salt-bearing gley soils line the flats beside Cabbage Tree Creek, so every joint and fitting below the surface ages fast in ground that never dries out. A trench for a new unit fills with water, and a tank stand set low works harder than one on the higher streets.
Flood lines that matter
Council mapping puts the February 2022 flood over a wide band of residential streets, with Station Road and Finnie Road inside it, so any replacement tank goes where a creek rise cannot reach it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Call (07) 3523 7167Are the old estate houses due another tank swap?
Yes, homes from the Blackwood estate days through the 1960s brick builds are on a third or later cylinder, and the 2021 census counted 87.5 per cent of dwellings as separate houses, so swaps stay routine.
Does the creek-side ground change how a tank goes in?
It does, because the peaty, salt-bearing gley ground beside the creek stays wet for long spells, so a new tank base or stand goes on the higher ground with its fittings easy to reach.
Will a heat pump cope with a Deagon winter?
Yes, winters here stay mild and frost-free, so a heat pump keeps pulling warmth from the air through the coldest weeks, and only the dampest air beside the creek slows it down.
Does council flood mapping affect where a new tank sits?
It can, because the February 2022 flood crossed many of the streets near the creek, so we set a replacement tank above that line and keep the isolation valve reachable if the water rises.
Who do I call about the water meter?
Urban Utilities looks after the meter, so a fault on that side belongs with them, while Fitzgibbon Hot Water Services handles everything from the meter inwards and your hot water system past it.
How do I book a hot water repair in Deagon?
Ring (07) 3523 7167 or use the form with your system type and the symptoms, and Fitzgibbon Hot Water Services will set a day that suits and quote the repair as a fixed figure before work starts.
