Plumber Bulimba

Hot water for Bulimba's character homes

Older Bulimba homes typically run an electric storage tank under the house or a gas unit on an outside wall, and the renovated ones often have continuous flow gas feeding multiple bathrooms. We service, repair and replace electric and gas systems of every type. If the system is leaking from the tank body, it is done, and we will say that straight out rather than bill you for a repair that cannot last. Our hot water team gives you the full installed price of a replacement before the old one is disconnected.

Blocked drains in Bulimba's older streets

Under streets like Harold Street and Morrison Street, plenty of original earthenware sewer lines are still in service, and the roots of established trees find every cracked joint. On the flatter blocks closer to the river the drains also have less natural fall, so a partial blockage shows itself early as gurgling and slow draining. We clear blocked drains with a high-pressure jetter and camera the line afterwards, so you can see whether it was roots, grease or a collapsed section, and get a fixed price on any repair before committing to it.

Emergency plumber in Bulimba, day and night

A burst flexi hose or a failed hot water system can flood a home in less time than it takes to get across town, which is exactly why our plumbers are spread across Brisbane instead of based in one yard. We take Bulimba emergency calls 24/7. Before we arrive, turn the water off at the meter and follow our emergency guide to keep the damage contained. In a raised Queenslander, moving anything valuable out from under the leak is worth the two minutes it takes.

Gas fitting and leak detection near Oxford Street

We are licensed gas fitters as well as plumbers, so gas cooktops, bayonet fittings and gas hot water changeovers anywhere in Bulimba are handled by the one tradesperson. For water leaks you cannot see, the first hint is usually an Urban Utilities bill that jumped for no reason. Keep in mind that Urban Utilities owns the water main and the meter, while every pipe on the property side of the meter belongs to the homeowner, so a concealed leak is on your account until it is found. We track them down with specialist leak detection equipment, and our leak detection service is quoted at a fixed price.
