Blocked Drains
Leaving a blocked drain can worsen quickly and leave you with a sewer surcharge in your property. Gurgling sounds around the house, bad odours, slow draining of water in the toilet or sink, or outside overflow around the drain are some symptoms. If a blocked drain is affecting your property, it’s time to get in touch with us immediately.
Hot Water
If you’ve ever stepped into the shower only to find that there’s no hot water, you probably won’t relish the prospect of reliving the experience. Cold showers are definitely not something to look forward to!
Gas Leak Repairs
Gas leaks are probably one of the most dangerous types of leaks to have in a property, being completely invisible to the naked eye. So how does one detect a gas leak?
Garden Hose Tap Replacements
Maintenance of your outdoor plumbing is just as important as your indoor plumbing, if not more, since outdoor plumbing problems tend to go unnoticed due to the tapware being located out of sight around the garden and open-air areas.
General Plumbing
Regular maintenance of your plumbing system is the most cost-effective way to avoid major repairs. By proactively servicing your hot water system, clearing blocked drains, or fixing the slow drips around your home or place of business, you will prevent potential emergency situations that could cost a lot more time, money, and stress.
Burst Pipes
Burst pipes can cause $1000’s in damages to your home. Most people don’t realise that the cause of ‘burst flexible hoses’ is due to high pressure. We not only fix burst pipes, we also get to the root of it and let you know solutions on how to avoid from happening again.
Leak Detection
Whether it’s a water, sewer or gas leak, don’t wait to call in professionals to assess the situation and get it fixed. Leaks of any kind have a tendency to lead to a magnitude of other problems, from costly property damage to potential health hazards.
Leaking Taps
A slow dripping tap might seem like a minor annoyance you could live with, rather than going through the hassle of getting a plumber to come out to get it fixed.
Leaky Toilets
Are you aware that a visibly leaking toilet can waste more than 60,000 litres of water a year? It’s because toilets can leak from multiple locations from the cistern to the base, causing sewer overflows.
Mixer Tap Replacements
Mixer tap systems are a wonderful invention that use a single tap to control both hot and cold water flow and temperature. Mixer taps are typically easy to use and fairly low-maintenance, however, they are slightly different from the standard taps and therefore require specialised plumbing skills for servicing and installation.
Outdoor Shower Installations
Besides adding a touch of tasteful luxury to beachfront properties and homes with outdoor swimming pools, outdoor showers are a practical addition for individuals and families who love spending time in the pool or simply enjoy relaxing on the beach.

Washing Machine Leaks
A leaking washing machine can be a silent destroyer of your laundry room flooring, walls, and cabinets, potentially creating a health hazard by causing rotting timber and mould. It’s important not to underestimate washing machine leaks; they can snowball quickly from a tiny leak into a major disaster if left unchecked.
Water Tank Installations
Not only is Australia the driest inhabited continent in the world (source), but a global study of the “water footprints of nations” found that Australian households held the world’s worst record for water consumption, partly due to the nation’s heavy consumption of meat and industrial goods, according to The Age.
Water Pressure
The Australian standard for residential water pressure is a maximum of 500kpa. Water pressure exceeding 500kpa is considered high, which can lead to a multitude of problems including voided warranty, burst flexible hoses and pipes, and potentially thousands of dollars worth of repairs.
Dishwasher Leaks
The dishwasher is one of the best inventions to have graced our homes. Now we don’t have to worry about washing a huge pile of dishes after cooking a big family meal; we can leave it to the dishwasher to do its magic.
Backflow Prevention Device Testing
Residential water pressure is usually maintained at a standard level to keep the water flowing in a specific direction through different areas of a home, for example from the shower to the toilet to the sink, etc.
