Local note
Older terrace houses in PJ often still have galvanised iron pipes that corrode from the inside. Repeated leaks are a sign the whole line may need replacing.
Homes in Petaling Jaya
Petaling Jaya began in 1952 as a satellite town of Kuala Lumpur, and its Old Town and numbered sections are filled with early terraces, semi-Ds and low- to medium-cost apartments. Damansara Jaya followed in the mid-1970s, then Bandar Utama, Kota Damansara and Ara Damansara brought newer landed estates and condominiums. Many older PJ homes have been extended and renovated several times, so original galvanised pipes often sit alongside newer PVC or PPR sections added by different contractors.
Common plumbing problems in Petaling Jaya
- Mixed old and new piping: Joints where renovated sections meet decades-old galvanised pipes are a common weak point for leaks and rust.
- Low water pressure upstairs: In older double-storey terraces, narrow or partly clogged pipes and ageing roof tank fittings can leave upstairs taps and showers weak.
- Rear extension drain blockages: Kitchens moved into rear extensions often have long, flat drain runs that clog more easily with grease and debris.
Water supply
Petaling Jaya is supplied by Air Selangor. Most landed homes here store water in a roof tank, so keeping the tank clean and its float valve working matters during scheduled supply disruptions announced by Air Selangor.
Planning to renovate an older PJ terrace? Ask your plumber to check the condition of the existing galvanised pipes before tiling over them. Replacing old pipes while walls and floors are already open is far less disruptive than hacking new tiles later.
