Who we are
Who does the work
across Northbridge
Licensed plumbers who work these streets week in and week out, and who would rather locate a line than price a job off where a pipe probably goes.

Ring and a plumber answers. Not a dispatcher writing down details to pass to whoever is free that afternoon, and not an answering service somewhere else entirely.
We work here constantly, which matters more than it sounds. This suburb was subdivided by a development company to sell blocks, and the services were fitted around lots that had already been drawn, so runs are frequently longer and less direct than a block suggests. Expecting that is most of the job.
Price agreed before anything starts, licence number and ABN on the quote, and a written lifetime workmanship warranty on the work itself.
NSW Plumbing Licence 368473C, verifiable on the Fair Trading public register. Unlicensed plumbing is illegal in NSW and voids a home insurance claim, so ask anyone for a number before work starts.
Fully insured, work carried out to the Australian Standards, and a written lifetime workmanship warranty. Gas work carries a Certificate of Compliance as a matter of course.
Our work is reviewed publicly, and we would rather you read those than take anything on this page at face value.
This is a working plumbing business rather than a brand with subcontractors behind it. The person who prices the job is the person who turns up to do it.
The habit that matters most here is looking before pricing. On a layout where the pipe rarely goes the obvious way, a confident quote given from the kerb is an estimate dressed as a figure, and we would rather spend twenty minutes finding out.
“A number I give you before I have looked is not a price, it is a hope. I would rather look.”
The suburb exists because a development company wanted to sell land north of Flat Rock Creek and built a bridge to reach it. Almost everything below follows from lots being drawn before the services were.
Boundaries were set for saleable frontage, and pipework was fitted around them afterwards, so the path is frequently longer than the block suggests.
A camera and a locator turn an assumption into a fact, and on this layout that is the difference between a fixed price and a variation.
Opening a long indirect run for a metre of defective pipe is why relining suits this housing so well.
Housing spanning more than a century means plenty of lines carry mature planting above them, and roots enter at an existing opening.
Built out in stages over a long period, so what gas or drainage reaches a property is confirmed at the property rather than assumed.
Sydney water is soft. A storage tank that has given up here has almost always lost its sacrificial anode or an element.
Located and filmed before a figure is given, rather than after it moves.
Agreed before we start and unchanged unless you approve a revision in writing.
Number and ABN on every quote, so you can check us before you commit rather than after.
