Service matrix

S.01 — General plumbing

No job too small.

Leaking taps, toilet plumbing, washers, valves, cisterns — the everyday stuff, plus all the small jobs other outfits won't touch. If it carries water, we'll sort it.

Honestly? Half our week is ten-minute fixes someone else quoted a fortune for. We'd rather earn the call-back than the invoice.

washers · valves · cisterns · toilet plumbing

S.02 — Blocked drains

Cleared properly, not just poked through.

Shower, toilet and stormwater blockages. We camera-survey the line first, then clear it by hand or with a hydro jet — high-pressure water that scours the pipe clean.

  • Tree roots in old earthenware
  • Grease & fat set like concrete
  • Hair matted into plugs
  • Tissues & toilet paper in old pans

S.03 — Leaking taps

Silence the drip.

That drip wastes litres a day, stains the sink and keeps you up at night. We reseat or replace washers and cartridges so it shuts off properly — usually first visit.

If the tap body is worn out, we say so and quote a replacement instead of charging you twice.

S.04 — Gas leaks & appliances · 24/7

Gas doesn't wait. Neither do we.

24/7 emergency gas leak detection and repairs. Gas is the one trade where "she'll be right" can kill you — every suspected leak is treated as urgent.

We also handle gas appliance breakdown, installation and repair, and track hidden leaks with specialist detection gear. Smell gas now? Call (555) 010-2030 — skip the form.

S.05 — Hot water systems

Cold showers, cancelled.

Gas, electric and solar — repaired, replaced and serviced. We work on Rheem, Rinnai, Bosch, Thermann and Vulcan, the brands South Australians actually have on their walls, so parts are rarely a drama and most repairs happen same-day.

S.06 — Pipe re-lining

New pipe. No digging.

The non-intrusive fix for damaged stormwater and sewer pipes: a new lining installed inside the old pipe, sealing cracks and root entry from within.

Suits concrete stormwater drains, downpipes, sewer stack drains, pump lines and grease drains. One day's work, no excavation, no re-landscaping bill.

S.00 — Emergency

2am and the house is flooding? Call.

24/7 emergency gas leak detection and repairs, plus burst pipes and overflowing blocked drains. Emergencies jump the queue, day or night: (555) 010-2030.

Gas leak signs — rotten-egg smell, hissing near a fitting, weakened pilot flame, damaged meter or pipework, nausea or dizziness indoors. Don't touch switches; turn gas off at the meter if safe; open windows; get out; call.

06 / Straight answers

Asked often

My sink or toilet is blocked — what first?

Don't pour chemical drain cleaner down it — call a plumber. Caustics rarely clear a real blockage and can damage pipes. Common causes: tree roots, grease and fat, hair, tissues and toilet paper. We camera-survey first, then clear by hand or hydro jet.

How do I know if I have a gas leak?

Rotten-egg / sulphur smell is the big one. Also hissing near a fitting, a weakened pilot flame, physical damage to the meter or pipework, or unexplained nausea indoors. Don't touch switches — gas off at the meter if safe, windows open, everyone out, call (555) 010-2030.

Repair or replace my hot water system?

Age plus breakdown frequency. Under eight years with a first fault: repair. Past ten and failing every winter: replace. We service Rheem, Rinnai, Bosch, Thermann and Vulcan — gas, electric, solar — and give you both numbers.

What is pipe re-lining?

Repairing pipes from the inside without digging. A lining goes into the existing stormwater or sewer pipe, sealing cracks and root entry. Suits concrete stormwater drains, downpipes, sewer stacks, pump lines and grease drains.

How fast can you get here — call-out fee?
