Expert Armstrong Creek Plumbing Services

Big Blue Plumbing covers Armstrong Creek and the broader Moreton Bay region with licensed plumbing and gas work, dispatching from local bases across the Sunshine Coast, Noosa, and Moreton Bay areas. Armstrong Creek sits within our 24/7 emergency plumbing coverage, where urgent jobs are sent out immediately and the nearest available technician is allocated based on current bookings and traffic. We confirm an ETA when you book, so you know when to expect arrival. With 40+ years of combined plumbing experience and over 3,000 jobs completed, the team is familiar with how drainage, hot water, and gas systems vary by property age, site access, and pipework materials common across Moreton Bay homes.

Armstrong Creek offers residents a relaxed lifestyle with access to parks, playgrounds, and bushland. Properties here range from older homes with original plumbing materials to more recent builds using modern PVC and PEX systems. That variation affects how blockages present, where leaks develop, and what hot water setup is typically installed. We assess what's onsite before quoting, so the fixed price reflects the actual scope once access and existing conditions are confirmed.

At Big Blue Plumbing, we're licensed and insured for plumbing, drainage, and gas work in Armstrong Creek. Public Liability insurance protects you if accidental property damage occurs during the job, and Workers Compensation covers workplace injury risks. Every technician arriving at your property can confirm their identity and has completed police and background checks, so you know who's entering your home. We wear boot covers or protective sleeves where requested, isolate the work area to reduce mess, and clean up before leaving. Receipts and invoices are provided for landlords, agents, or your own records.

Common Plumbing Issues in Armstrong Creek Homes

Plumbing faults in Armstrong Creek typically involve drainage blockages, leaking fixtures, hot water failures, or gas appliance issues. The cause often links to the property's age and the materials used when it was built. Older Armstrong Creek homes may still have sections of galvanised steel or cast iron pipe, which corrode over time and narrow the flow path. Tree roots seeking moisture can infiltrate cracked joints in clay or terracotta drainage lines, trapping debris and causing slow drains or backups. In kitchens, fat and oil solidify as they cool, creating stubborn blockages that won't shift with boiling water alone.

Hot water systems fail when sacrificial anode rods corrode, allowing tank rust, or when sediment buildup insulates the heating element and reduces efficiency. Gas leaks are usually traced to deteriorated flexible hoses, loose fittings, or appliance connections that weren't tested after installation. If you smell gas (a rotten egg odour from the added mercaptan), hear hissing near an appliance, or see dying plants over an underground line, treat it as urgent and arrange an immediate assessment.

We use high-definition CCTV cameras to inspect drain lines, identifying the blockage type, depth, and location without digging first. For clearing, high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) pulverises roots and scours grease from pipe walls at pressures suited to the pipe material and condition. Gas work involves combustible gas detectors and pressure loss testing to confirm the system is gas-tight before reconnection. Every repair or alteration is completed to Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3500 for plumbing, AS/NZS 5601.1 for gas), and compliance documentation is provided where required.

Here's what we commonly handle in Armstrong Creek and across Moreton Bay:

  • Leaking taps, toilets, and hot water relief valves
  • Blocked toilets, sinks, showers, and external gully traps
  • Burst or corroded pipes (flexi hoses, copper, galvanised steel)
  • Hot water system repairs, replacements, and tempering valve installations
  • Gas leak detection, appliance connections, and compliance testing

If you're not sure how urgent the issue is, a quick call is enough to confirm priority and book the right technician. You don't need to diagnose the fault yourself; we'll assess it onsite, explain what's causing it, and provide a fixed-price quote before any work proceeds.

How We Approach Plumbing Work in Armstrong Creek

When a plumbing fault affects flow, pressure, or safety, the starting point is confirming what's actually causing it and where the problem sits within the property boundary. We don't assume the fault based on symptoms alone. On arrival, we assess the affected area, check access to pipework or fixtures, and use diagnostic tools where needed (CCTV for drains, thermal imaging or gas detectors for leaks, pressure testing for suspected pipe damage). Once the cause and scope are confirmed, we explain what's involved, provide a fixed-price quote for the work, and confirm inclusions and exclusions in plain English. You decide whether to proceed once you understand the cost and what it covers.

If the job can be completed immediately and you approve the quote, we isolate the water or gas supply to the affected section, carry out the installation or repair, and verify the outcome before leaving (re-checking flow, testing for leaks, confirming appliance operation). We take photos of findings when it helps explain what was discovered, and we provide receipts suitable for insurance claims or property management records. For more complex work requiring parts, approvals, or coordination with strata or council, we explain the next steps and schedule a return visit once everything is ready.

We price by the job, not by the hour, so the fixed quote you receive is what you pay once the work is complete. There are no hidden fees or surprise add-ons. If diagnostics reveal additional issues outside the original scope (for example, CCTV check shows pipe damage beyond the blockage), we explain the options and provide a separate quote before proceeding with any extra work. You're not obliged to proceed; the decision is yours once you have the information and the price.

Our workmanship is covered by our workmanship warranty. This covers defects in the work we perform; it does not cover manufacturer faults in products (those are covered by the manufacturer's warranty). If a workmanship issue shows up after we leave, we address it under the workmanship warranty. We aim to be on time and communicate clearly around booking windows and arrival, providing ETA updates where possible so you're not left waiting without information.

Need a Plumber for Plumbing Issues In Your House?

Residential plumbing faults in Armstrong Creek and across Moreton Bay can emerge in any property, regardless of age. Catching them early reduces the risk of water damage, higher bills, or complete system failure. Common issues include dripping taps that waste water and increase costs, toilets that keep refilling due to worn cistern seals, blocked drains that slow or stop entirely, and hot water supply systems that fail to heat or leak at the relief valve. Burst flexi hoses are particularly common in older homes where rubber hoses have aged and split under mains pressure.

We handle these complications with a clear process: assess the fault, confirm the cause, explain what's involved, provide an upfront fixed quote, and complete the work once you approve. If it's something straightforward like a tap washer replacement or cistern valve adjustment, it's usually resolved in one visit. For hot water system replacements or drainage work requiring excavation or relining, we explain the timeframe, access requirements, and what happens at each stage.

Many Armstrong Creek homes were built in earlier decades when plumbing standards and materials differed from today's practices. If you're dealing with recurring blockages, low pressure, or frequent leaks, it may indicate ageing infrastructure rather than isolated faults. We explain what's causing the pattern and whether a targeted repair will resolve it or if a broader upgrade is needed to prevent the same issue recurring. You're not pressured into unnecessary work; we provide the information and let you decide based on your budget and priorities.

For all your residential plumbing needs in Armstrong Creek, Big Blue Plumbing is available to assess, quote, and complete the work to meet Australian Standards. Call us early to avoid small issues becoming expensive repairs.

Why Choose Big Blue Plumbing for Armstrong Creek Work

We focus on transparency and clear communication rather than short-term fixes. When you contact Big Blue Plumbing, you're speaking to a locally owned plumbing business operating across the Sunshine Coast, Noosa, and Moreton Bay regions, not a call centre routing jobs to contractors. Our team has completed over 3,000 plumbing and gas jobs, building familiarity with how faults vary by property type, site conditions, and local access constraints.

Our plumbers are licensed for the work they perform, and all attending technicians have completed police and background checks. We arrive in uniform, confirm identity on arrival, and follow entry instructions carefully to respect your home or workplace. We use drop sheets and protective covers to protect floors and surfaces, and we isolate the work area where practical to reduce mess. At the end of the job, we clean up the work area, remove rubbish, and take away debris generated by the installation or repair.

Pricing is fixed and provided upfront once scope is confirmed on site. We don't charge by the hour, so there's no incentive to extend the job. The quote you approve is the price you pay, with no hidden fees or call-out surprises unless additional work outside the original scope is requested and separately quoted. For customers who need to spread costs, we offer a 0% interest payment plan through Brighte, with approval typically completed in 5 to 7 minutes. Seniors with a valid senior card receive a discount.

We back our work with a workmanship warranty, covering defects in the plumbing or gas fitting we perform. Manufacturer warranties apply to products like hot water systems, taps, or appliances, and we provide documentation so you can claim those warranties if needed. If you need receipts, invoices, or compliance certificates for agents, strata, or your own records, we provide them as part of the service.

Armstrong Creek: A Moreton Bay Suburb We Service Regularly

Armstrong Creek sits within the Moreton Bay region, surrounded by parks, playgrounds, and bushland that make it an appealing residential area. Properties here include a mix of older homes with established gardens and trees, as well as more recent builds on smaller blocks with modern plumbing infrastructure. The variation in property age affects the plumbing materials we encounter onsite, the drainage configurations, and the hot water systems typically installed.

Older Armstrong Creek properties may still have sections of galvanised steel, copper, or cast iron pipe, which corrode or crack over time and require targeted replacement. Tree roots seeking moisture are a frequent cause of blocked drains in homes with established landscaping, particularly where clay or terracotta pipes are present. Newer homes generally use PVC drainage and PEX flexible plumbing, which reduce the risk of root intrusion but can still be affected by incorrect installation or ground movement in reactive soils.

We've worked across Moreton Bay for years, so we're familiar with the typical access and parking constraints in suburban streets, strata developments, and properties with long driveways or rear access. Scheduling and arrival communication take these factors into account, and we confirm any access requirements when you book. If you're coordinating with property managers, strata committees, or tenants, we can provide job documentation suitable for maintenance logs and compliance records.

After serving Armstrong Creek and surrounding Moreton Bay suburbs, we also cover nearby areas including Bongaree, Yugar, Bunya, Mango Hill and Closeburn. If you need plumbing or gas services in Armstrong Creek or the broader Moreton Bay region, we're available to assess your situation and provide a fixed-fee quote once scope is agreed onsite.

Easy Steps

General Plumbing

General plumbing covers everything from fixture repairs and tap replacements to pipe repairs and new installation work in Armstrong Creek homes and businesses. This includes leaking taps, running toilets, burst flexi hoses, low pressure investigations, and new fixture installations like sinks, taps, dishwashers, or washing machines. We assess the fault or installation site, confirm what's needed, and provide a fixed-fee quote before starting work. The job is priced by the task, not by the hour, so there's no incentive to stretch the timeframe.

In older Armstrong Creek properties, general plumbing faults often signal ageing infrastructure. A dripping tap may just need a washer, but recurring leaks across multiple fixtures can indicate corroded valve seats or deteriorating pipework that needs replacing. We explain what's causing the issue and whether a targeted repair will resolve it or if a broader fix is needed to prevent the same problem recurring. You drive the decision based on your budget and priorities; we provide the information and options.

Our plumbers use quality products for installations and replacements, and we test outcomes before leaving (re-checking flow, confirming no leaks, verifying fixture operation). Workmanship is covered by our workmanship warranty; manufacturer warranties apply to products like taps, mixers, or appliances. We provide documentation so you can claim those warranties if needed. For urgent issues like broken pipes or flooding, we can isolate the water supply and make the area safe while arranging a full repair once parts or access are confirmed.

Big Blue Plumbing handles all general plumbing requirements in Armstrong Creek, from small repairs to full fixture replacements. We're licensed, insured, and available 24/7 for emergencies. Contact us to arrange an assessment and fixed-price quote.

Local Emergency Plumbing

Plumbing emergencies in Armstrong Creek don't wait for business hours. A ruptured pipe at 2 a.m. Or a gas smell after dinner needs immediate attention to prevent property damage or safety risks. Big Blue Plumbing operates 24/7 emergency plumbing across Moreton Bay, dispatching the nearest available technician from our local bases when urgent jobs come in. An ETA is provided when you call, so you know when to expect arrival. Timing depends on current bookings, traffic, and the technician's starting location, but urgent work is handled first.

On arrival, we assess the situation, isolate the water or gas supply if needed to stop further damage, and determine whether the fault can be fully resolved immediately or requires parts, daylight access, or follow-up work. If it can't be sorted after hours, we make the property safe and schedule a return visit as soon as practical. For straightforward emergencies (burst flexi hoses, blocked toilets, leaking hot water supply relief valves), resolution often happens on the first visit after confirming the cause and you approve the flat-rate quote.

Emergency call-outs are charged differently to standard bookings. Contact us when you call to confirm the call-out fee and how it applies to your situation. There are no hidden fees; pricing is explained upfront so you can decide whether to proceed once you understand the cost. If the emergency involves active flooding, gas leaks, or sewage backups, treat it as urgent and call immediately. The longer these issues run, the more damage they cause and the higher the eventual repair cost becomes.

Our Armstrong Creek emergency plumbing services are available around the clock. We're licensed, insured, and equipped to handle urgent plumbing and gas faults safely. Call us at any time on (07) 5404 9354 if you need immediate assistance.

Blocked Drains Services

Blocked drains in Armstrong Creek properties are commonly caused by tree root intrusion in older clay or terracotta pipes, fat and grease buildup in kitchen lines, or foreign objects flushed down toilets. Symptoms include slow-draining sinks or showers, gurgling sounds when water empties, unpleasant odours from gully traps, or complete stoppages where water backs up into fixtures. Left untreated, blockages increase pressure in the line and can cause pipe joints to separate or cracks to widen, leading to leaks or structural failure.

We use high-definition CCTV drain cameras to inspect the line and identify the blockage type, location, and any underlying pipe damage. The camera feeds live footage, so you can see what's causing the obstruction and whether the pipe itself needs repair or relining. For clearing, we use high-pressure jetting (hydro-jetting) to pulverise roots, scour grease, and flush debris from the line. Jetting pressures are adjusted to suit the pipe material and condition, avoiding damage to older or fragile pipes.

If CCTV inspection reveals pipe damage, collapsed sections, or root intrusion that will recur without structural repair, we explain the options: excavation and replacement of the damaged section, or trenchless drain relining where a resin-coated liner is inserted and cured inside the existing pipe to create a new, seamless inner surface. Relining avoids digging up driveways, gardens, or finished landscaping, but it's only suitable where the original pipe hasn't completely collapsed. We provide fixed-price quotes for both options so you can decide based on cost, disruption, and long-term durability.

Our Armstrong Creek drain blockage services include CCTV inspections, hydro-jetting, pipe relining, and excavation repairs. We locate the fault, clear the blockage, and verify flow is restored before leaving. If the underlying cause is structural, we explain what's needed to prevent recurrence and provide options once the full scope is finalised.

Gas Fitting

All gas work in Armstrong Creek must be completed by a properly licensed gas fitter and comply with AS/NZS 5601.1 safety standards. Gas installations, appliance connections, and leak repairs involve pressurised flammable gas, so any mistakes create serious safety risks including fire, explosion, or carbon monoxide poisoning. Do not attempt gas work yourself or use unlicensed contractors; the consequences of incorrect gas fitting far outweigh any short-term cost savings.

We provide licensed gas fitting for new appliance installations (cooktops, ovens, hot water systems, heaters), gas leak detection and repairs, and compliance testing after any gas work is completed. Gas leak detection involves combustible gas detectors, thermal imaging, or leak-detection fluid to locate escapes at fittings, hoses, or appliance connections. All repaired or altered gas installations are pressure-tested to confirm the system is gas-tight before being reconnected and commissioned.

If you smell gas (the added rotten-egg odour), hear hissing near an appliance, or see dying vegetation over an underground line, treat it as urgent. Turn off the gas at the meter if safe to do so, ventilate the area, avoid ignition sources (switches, phones, lighters), and evacuate if the smell is strong. Call us immediately for an emergency gas assessment. We'll locate the leak, isolate the affected section, and make the system safe before completing repairs and re-testing.

Compliance certificates are issued where required by regulation, and we provide documentation suitable for property managers, strata, or your own records. Our Armstrong Creek gas plumbers are licensed, insured, and equipped to handle all residential, commercial, and industrial gas work safely. Contact us to arrange an assessment or book a new gas appliance connection.

Hot Water Plumbing

Hot water system failures in Armstrong Creek are often caused by corroded sacrificial anode rods (in storage tanks), sediment buildup that insulates heating elements or burners, faulty thermostats, or leaking pressure relief valves. Symptoms include no hot water, fluctuating temperatures, rusty-looking water, or visible leaks at the tank or connections. If you wake up to cold water, check whether the system is electric, gas, or solar, and whether the issue is complete loss of heat or just reduced temperature.

We're licensed to install, repair, and replace electric, gas, solar, and heat pump hot water systems in Armstrong Creek. Installation requires compliance with the National Construction Code and AS/NZS 3500 plumbing standards, including mandatory tempering valves (to limit tap temperature to 50°C and prevent scalding) and pressure relief valves (to prevent tank over-pressurisation). We confirm the existing system type, capacity, and location constraints before recommending replacement options, and we explain the differences between storage, instantaneous, heat pump, and solar systems so you can choose based on household size, energy costs, and available space.

If the fault is repairable (thermostat replacement, anode rod replacement, relief valve replacement), we assess the system's overall condition and remaining lifespan before recommending repair versus replacement. An older tank with significant internal corrosion may fail again shortly after a component repair, making replacement more cost-effective in the long term. We provide fixed-price quotes for both options once the full scope is clarified, and you decide based on budget, urgency, and expected system lifespan.

Our Armstrong Creek hot water plumbing team is available around the clock for emergency hot water failures. We carry common components for immediate repairs where possible, and we can arrange same-day or next-day replacement installations depending on system availability and site access. Contact us to restore hot water and confirm what's needed for a lasting fix.

Other Plumbing Services

Big Blue Plumbing handles same-day plumbing service across Moreton Bay when bookings allow. Our plumbers arrive promptly, explain what's involved, and back the work with our workmanship warranty. We cover general plumbing, gas fitting, hot water repairs, blocked drains, and more throughout South East Queensland.

Plumbing Maintenance

Preventative plumbing maintenance in Armstrong Creek reduces the likelihood of unexpected failures, water damage, and expensive emergency repairs. Regular checks identify small issues before they escalate: slow leaks that haven't caused visible damage yet, deteriorating seals in toilets and taps, sediment buildup in hot water tanks, or early signs of pipe corrosion. Addressing these issues early is almost always cheaper than dealing with burst pipes, flooded rooms, or complete system failures.

We provide scheduled maintenance services for residential and commercial properties, including hot water system servicing (anode rod inspection, sediment flushing, thermostat testing), CCTV drain inspections to check for root intrusion or pipe deterioration, and safety inspections to confirm gas appliances are operating correctly and venting safely. Maintenance work is quoted upfront once the scope is confirmed, and we explain what's involved, how often it should be repeated, and what problems it prevents.

For rental properties and strata developments, routine maintenance reduces tenant complaints, avoids urgent after-hours callouts, and provides documentation for compliance and insurance purposes. We can schedule regular service visits at intervals that suit your property type and usage patterns, and we provide detailed reports showing what was checked, what was found, and what action was taken or recommended.

Regular plumbing maintenance helps avoid spikes in water bills caused by hidden leaks, extends the lifespan of hot water systems and fixtures, and reduces the risk of property damage from sudden failures. Contact us to arrange a plumbing maintenance service in Armstrong Creek, and we'll assess your property's condition and recommend a maintenance schedule based on age, usage, and system type.

Commercial Plumbing

Business plumbing in Armstrong Creek covers offices, retail premises, cafés, restaurants, gyms, medical centres, and light industrial facilities. The focus shifts from residential-scale fixtures to managing higher usage volumes, compliance with health and safety standards, and minimising downtime that affects business operations. We handle installation, repairs, and maintenance for commercial properties, including backflow prevention testing, grease trap servicing, and TMV (thermostatic mixing valve) testing where required.

Commercial work often requires scheduling outside business hours to avoid disrupting operations, or coordinating with site managers and strata committees when common property or shared services are affected. We provide clear arrival communication, follow site induction requirements where needed, and document work completed for maintenance logs and compliance records. Invoices are itemised and suitable for business accounting and insurance claims.

For Armstrong Creek businesses, we're available to assess plumbing faults, provide fixed-price quotes, and complete work within agreed timeframes. If urgent repairs are needed to restore critical services (water supply, drainage, gas appliances), we explain the options and coordinate with you to minimise downtime and manage operational risks. Our commercial plumbers are licensed, insured, and experienced in managing the higher-stakes environment of business plumbing where delays and disruptions carry real financial costs.

Industrial Plumbing

Industrial plumbing in Armstrong Creek and across Moreton Bay involves larger-scale installations, high-pressure systems, water treatment, irrigation, and routine maintenance for warehouses, manufacturing sites, and facilities with complex plumbing and gas infrastructure. Industrial work requires familiarity with AS/NZS standards, site safety protocols, and the operational constraints of working in active industrial environments where downtime or disruption affects production schedules.

We provide industrial plumbing services including water harvesting systems, irrigation installations, high-pressure tap and fixture installations, and routine cleaning and maintenance of drainage and water treatment systems. We assess the site, confirm access and safety requirements, and provide detailed quotes that cover labour, materials, compliance testing, and documentation. If emergency repairs are needed, we coordinate with site managers to isolate affected areas, make the system safe, and restore function with minimal disruption.

Some of our specialist industrial plumbing services include:

  1. Water harvesting and storage systems
  2. Irrigation system installation and maintenance
  3. High-pressure water installations
  4. Routine cleaning and maintenance for large-scale drainage and water treatment

For Armstrong Creek industrial sites, Big Blue Plumbing offers the experience and licensing to handle complex plumbing and gas work safely and to code. We investigate the site thoroughly, provide recommendations based on operational needs and compliance requirements, and aim to complete work with minimal disruption to your operations.

Real Estate Plumbing

Property managers and landlords in Armstrong Creek need plumbing contractors who respond quickly, communicate clearly, and provide documentation suitable for agents, owners, and tenants. We handle plumbing maintenance and repairs for rental properties, strata developments, and real estate portfolios across Moreton Bay, coordinating with tenants and property managers to arrange access, confirm scope, and complete work within agreed timeframes.

For rental properties, common plumbing issues include blocked toilets, leaking taps, hot water supply failures, and drainage blockages. We assess the fault, provide a fixed-fee quote, and complete the work once approved by the property manager or owner. Invoices and receipts are itemised and suitable for tenant reimbursement, owner billing, or insurance claims. If urgent repairs are needed to prevent property damage or restore essential services (water, hot water, drainage), we explain the options and confirm priority with the property manager before proceeding.

For strata properties, we coordinate with strata committees and building managers to arrange access, follow site rules (parking, noise, common property constraints), and provide documentation for maintenance records and compliance logs. We're familiar with the boundaries between lot owner responsibility and common property, and we explain those boundaries when faults affect shared services or infrastructure.

Our professional team provides fast, reliable service for real estate clients in Armstrong Creek. If your tenants have emergency plumbing needs or routine repair requests, we're available to assess, quote, and complete the work with clear communication and proper documentation.

Plumbing Renovations

Bathroom, kitchen, and laundry renovations in Armstrong Creek require early plumbing input to avoid costly mistakes and delays. Fixture positions, drainage fall, water supply sizing, and compliance with current plumbing standards all affect what can be installed, where it can go, and how much it will cost. We work with homeowners, builders, and designers to plan plumbing layouts, confirm feasibility, and provide fixed-price quotes for the plumbing scope before renovation work begins.

Typical renovation plumbing includes relocating or installing new fixtures (basins, toilets, showers, baths, kitchen sinks, dishwashers, washing machines), upgrading drainage and water supply lines, installing hot water tempering valves (mandatory for new bathroom and kitchen taps), and connecting gas appliances like cooktops. We assess the existing plumbing, confirm access for new pipe runs, and explain what's involved in connecting new fixtures to the existing system.

Early involvement reduces surprises. If drainage fall is insufficient for a new bathroom layout, or existing pipes are corroded and need replacing, it's better to know before tiling and cabinetry are installed. We visit the site, review the renovation plans, and provide detailed advice on the most practical and cost-effective way to handle the plumbing scope. By arranging plumbing input early, you can be confident we'll be available when the renovation reaches the plumbing stage.

For Armstrong Creek renovation projects, contact Big Blue Plumbing to discuss your plans and confirm what's needed for compliant, functional plumbing that suits your layout and budget.

An ETA is provided when you call, based on current bookings and the technician's starting location. Urgent work is prioritised, so jobs involving active leaks, gas smells, or sewage backups are sent out immediately.

What does your fixed pricing model mean for customers?

We price by the job, not by the hour, so the fixed quote you approve is what you pay once the work is complete. There are no hidden fees or hourly rate extensions. Pricing is provided upfront once scope is confirmed on site onsite, and you decide whether to proceed once you understand the cost and what it covers.

Are your plumbers insured and licensed?

Yes. All technicians are licensed for the plumbing, drainage, and gas work they perform. We carry Public Liability insurance (protecting you if accidental property damage occurs during the job) and Workers Compensation (covering workplace injury risks). Every attending technician has completed police and background checks and can confirm identity on arrival.

How do you handle blocked drains in Armstrong Creek properties?

We use high-definition CCTV cameras to inspect the drain line and identify the blockage type, location, and any underlying pipe damage. Clearing involves high-pressure water jetting (hydro-jetting) to pulverise roots and scour grease from pipe walls. If CCTV shows structural damage, we explain repair options including excavation or trenchless pipe relining.

What should I do if I smell gas in my Armstrong Creek home?

Turn off the gas at the meter if safe to do so, ventilate the area by opening doors and windows, avoid ignition sources (switches, phones, lighters), and evacuate if the smell is strong. Contact us immediately for an emergency gas assessment. We'll locate the leak, isolate the affected section, and make the system safe before completing repairs and pressure testing.

Can you install new hot water supply systems in Armstrong Creek?

Yes. We're licensed to install electric, gas, solar, and heat pump hot water systems in compliance with AS/NZS 3500 plumbing standards.

What causes recurring blockages in Armstrong Creek drains?

Recurring blockages are often caused by tree root intrusion in older clay or terracotta pipes, structural damage that traps debris, or incorrect drainage fall that prevents proper flow. CCTV inspection identifies the underlying cause, and we explain whether a targeted clearing will resolve it or if pipe repair or relining is needed to prevent recurrence.

How do you protect my home during plumbing work?

We use drop sheets and protective covers to protect floors and surfaces in work areas. Technicians wear boot covers or protective sleeves where requested, isolate the work area to reduce mess, and clean up before leaving. We remove rubbish and debris generated by the installation or repair.
