How the job runs
The old unit location sets the options
Tell us what you have now
Call 0489 271 238 and read us the label on the existing unit: gas, electric or solar, storage or instant, and how many litres. Say whether it sits inside, in a cupboard or outside, and when the hot water last ran properly.
Match the system to the house
We look at the space, the flue or vent path, the gas or power supply and how many people use hot water. We quote and tell you which type fits. Swapping storage for continuous flow can mean a larger gas line.
Swap, fill and test
The old unit is drained and carried out, and the new one is fixed and connected. We fill it, bleed the air from the taps, check the water temperature at the tap and the relief valve drain, then explain the controls. The old unit leaves with us.
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Which areas do you work in?
We work across the Central Coast and Newcastle, and into the Hunter Valley, Northern Sydney and the Northern Beaches. Each place we list has its own page describing the housing and ground there. If your suburb is not listed, call and ask.
Do you take emergency plumbing calls?
Yes. The phone is answered day and night, and emergency plumbing is one of the twelve services on this site. Burst pipes, urgent blockages and water with nowhere to go are the usual calls.
What should I do while I wait if a pipe has burst?
Shut the water off at the isolation valve, which is usually near the water meter or where the main pipe enters the house. Switch off power to any wet area if you can do it without standing in water. Then call and tell us where the water is coming from.
Do you work on homes and commercial properties?
Yes, both. A home job and a shop or office job share the same pipework, but access, hours and shut-offs are different, so tell us which it is when you call.
What kinds of hot water systems can you install?
We install and repair gas, electric and solar hot water systems. The choice depends on whether the house has mains gas or bottled gas, where the unit will sit and how many people use it. We talk that through on the first call.
Can you clear a drain that keeps blocking?
Yes. A drain that blocks again and again usually has a cause such as tree roots, a broken pipe or a belly in the line, and clearing it once will not fix that. We find the cause and tell you what it is before suggesting a repair.
Do you do the whole renovation or just the plumbing?
We handle the plumbing, gas fitting, strip out and demolition side of bathroom, kitchen and laundry renovations. Ask on the first call what is included in the job you have in mind, and we will tell you which parts we do.
Can you put in the water connections for a new kitchen?
Yes. That covers the sink and tap, the dishwasher connection, a water line for a fridge with an ice maker and the gas point for a cooktop. Send a photo of the existing kitchen and the plans if you have them.
What does roofing have to do with plumbing?
Gutters, downpipes, flashings and stormwater all carry water, and they are part of the plumbing trade. We look at roof leaks, gutter and downpipe repairs and storm damage. Describe where the water is getting in when you call.
What happens before you start a renovation?
The area is looked at in person or from photos, the water and gas are isolated, and the quote names what is going in and what is coming out. If the old room reveals something behind the wall, you are told straight away.
How do I get a quote?
Call, email or use the form on this site, and say what the job is and where. For a simple job a few photos may be enough, and for a renovation the room will usually be looked at in person.
