What we do

Our Plumbing Services

Below are the nine service categories our licensed team is set up to deliver, all booked through one local number and all backed by the same Lifetime Labour Warranty, Fixed Upfront Pricing, and on-call after-hours cover under Lic. #333997 with Master Plumber South Australia for every home around the Tea Tree Plaza catchment.

General Plumbing

Our team handles general plumbing work from dishwasher and fridge installs through to roof leak repairs and carbon monoxide testing, all quoted up front before work begins.

Emergency Plumbing

A licensed plumber is rostered on emergency plumbing callouts every hour of the year, with within-the-hour response where availability allows on bursts, gas leaks, and sewer overflows.

Blocked Drains

Drain clearing, CCTV camera inspection, hydrojet cleaning, and full drain replacement are all delivered by our blocked drains team across the area, with a written cause-and-fix scope at handover.

Hot Water

Repairs and replacements across gas, electric, solar, and heat pump systems are covered by our hot water team, with Fixed Upfront Pricing in writing before any tank swap.

Gas Fitting

Licensed gas fitting covers cooktop and oven connections, gas heater installs, line extensions, and the compliance certificate issued at handover, all worked to current AS/NZS 3500 standards.

Pipe Relining

Trenchless pipe relining repairs cracked, collapsed, and root-invaded drains under the yard with no excavation, after a full CCTV inspection scopes the failure properly first.

Leak Detection

Acoustic and thermal leak detection locates hidden water, slab, and gas leaks across local homes without tearing up floors or walls, with the repair on the same visit.

Taps & Toilets

Leaking taps and toilets, cistern faults, mixer replacements, and tap upgrades are booked through one local number, with parts on the van and Fixed Upfront Pricing first.

Burst Pipes

A failed water main, frozen line, or hidden underground burst pipe is located and repaired on the same call where possible, with within-the-hour response where availability allows on urgent overnight bursts.

Local knowledge

What Local Homes Need from Their Plumber

The modern housing stock filled in rapidly through the 1960s and 1970s after Tea Tree Plaza opened in 1970 and the Adelaide metropolitan area pushed north-east. Most streets are lined with single-storey brick and brick-veneer homes on regular suburban blocks, with a steady layer of semi-detached, townhouse, and unit infill closer to the Westfield precinct and the O-Bahn terminus. A large share of these homes were fitted out during the boom and are still running electric or gas storage hot water units well past the typical 8 to 12 year service life. Established gardens along the older streets between Smart Road and North East Road have decades of mature root growth pressing into clay and early PVC drain joints laid during the main build-out. Older sections that pre-date the 1970s expansion, including the village core near Montague Road, still rely on earthenware drainage that cracks at the joints as it ages. Mains gas was rolled out across north-eastern Adelaide during that residential growth, and many homes retain original-era service lines and appliance connections that need compliance checks at changeover. Streets like North East Road, Smart Road, Montague Road, Pompoota Road, Wright Road, and Britten Avenue carry the bulk of the stock, with Westfield Tea Tree Plaza, Modbury Hospital, Civic Park, Modbury High School, and the Tea Tree Plaza Interchange anchoring the streetscape under the City of Tea Tree Gully.

Emergency? We answer 24/7

When Emergency Plumbing Strikes Locally

A burst pipe, gas leak, or sewer overflow rarely waits until business hours, and every minute the water or waste keeps running adds cost and risk to the home. Our licensed on-call team aims to be on site within the hour where availability allows, with Fixed Upfront Pricing accepted in writing before any work starts on the emergency repair.

  • Burst pipes flooding floors, walls, or ceilings
  • Suspected gas leaks inside or near the building
  • Sewer or wastewater backing up into showers, sinks, or toilets
  • Complete loss of hot water with vulnerable people at home
  • Failed flexi hoses dumping water under sinks

Call now if any of those are happening at your property. Shut the water off at the meter, clear the area, and our on-call plumber will confirm an arrival window before the van leaves.

Common faults

Common Plumbing Issues We Fix Locally

Most urgent calls follow predictable patterns shaped by the 1960s and 1970s Tea Tree Plaza boom, the original earthenware drainage in the older village core, the mature plantings between Smart Road and North East Road, and the original-era gas lines still feeding many local homes. These are the four jobs we resolve most often:

01

Ageing 1960s and 1970s hot water systems

A large share of homes were built or fitted out during the Tea Tree Plaza boom and are still running electric or gas storage units that are well past the typical 8 to 12 year service life, with many original-era systems due for compliant changeover.

02

Tree-root intrusion between Smart Road and North East Road

Established gardens along the older streets between Smart Road and North East Road have decades of mature root growth pressing into clay and early PVC drain joints laid during the suburb's main build-out, driving recurring blockages on older lines.

03

Earthenware clay drainage near the village core

Sections that pre-date the 1970s expansion, including the older village core near Montague Road, still rely on original earthenware drainage that cracks at the joints, partly collapses over time, and drives repeat blockage callouts on the older allotments.

04

Original-era gas fittings on older homes

Mains gas was rolled out across north-eastern Adelaide during the main residential growth, and many homes retain original-era gas service lines and appliance connections that now need compliance checks and recertification at every changeover.

Our process

How We Work on Every Job

We run every booking the same way, from the first phone call through to handover, so you always know what is happening next. The four steps below run on every job the team takes:

1

Speak to Our Team

Our dispatcher takes the full details on the phone, confirms whether the supply needs isolating, and books a licensed plumber with a real arrival window before the van leaves.

2

Onsite Assessment & Quote

The licensed plumber scopes the failure properly on arrival, walks you through what needs doing, and hands over Fixed Upfront Pricing in writing covering parts, labour, and compliance.

3

Work Completed Cleanly

After your sign-off the team completes the repair to AS/NZS 3500 standards, contains any mess with drop sheets, and tidies the workspace before any final commissioning takes place.

4

Testing & Handover

We pressure-test the line, walk you through the finished work, record the Lifetime Labour Warranty on the invoice, and confirm any compliance certificates are issued before leaving the property.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

These are the questions we hear most often from local homeowners, covering response times, pricing, after-hours cover, and the plumbing issues shaped by the 1960s and 1970s Tea Tree Plaza boom, the original earthenware drainage, and the mature plantings around the older streets:

How quickly can a plumber arrive in Modbury?

Our on-call team aims to be on site within the hour where availability allows. Call any hour of the day or night, and we will confirm an arrival window before the van leaves.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing?

Yes. The phones are answered around the clock, including nights, weekends, and public holidays, with a licensed plumber rostered on call for urgent jobs every hour of the year.

How does plumbing pricing work?

Every job is quoted in writing with Fixed Upfront Pricing before any work starts, covering parts, labour, and after-hours rates. No hourly billing, no figures added on the final invoice.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

Burst pipes, suspected gas leaks, sewer overflows into the home, and a total loss of hot water with vulnerable people inside all warrant an immediate after-hours callout from a licensed plumber.

Do you service all homes in Modbury?

Yes. Our licensed team works across the post-war brick and brick-veneer stock and the newer townhouse infill near the Westfield precinct, with the same Fixed Upfront Pricing on every booking.

Do you handle clay-pipe drainage repairs near Montague Road?

Yes. We run CCTV camera inspection on the older earthenware drainage around the village core, then quote the clearing, cutting, or trenchless relining repair in writing before any work starts.
