Common Questions

Expert Answers to Your Plumbing Questions

  • How quickly can you attend a plumbing emergency in Townsville?

    We prioritise emergencies and aim to attend as quickly as possible, often within the hour for urgent issues such as burst pipes or sewage overflows, depending on location and demand.

  • What is considered a plumbing emergency?

    A plumbing emergency includes situations that risk property damage, health hazards, or loss of essential services. This includes burst pipes, sewage backups, complete water loss, and suspected gas leaks (handled by a licensed gas fitter).

  • Do you charge extra for after-hours or weekend call-outs?

    Yes, after-hours call-outs attract different rates. We always confirm any applicable fees before dispatch so you know the cost upfront.

  • My drain is blocked again. Why does it keep happening?

    Recurring blockages often indicate a deeper issue such as tree root intrusion, pipe damage, or a sag in the line. We use CCTV inspections to identify the cause and recommend a permanent solution.

  • I have no hot water. Can you fix it today?

    In many cases, yes. We carry common parts for major systems and can often complete same-day repairs or replacements depending on availability.

  • What is hydro excavation and why do you use it?

    Hydro excavation uses high-pressure water and vacuum suction to safely expose underground services. It reduces the risk of damaging pipes, cables, or other infrastructure.

  • My water bill is suddenly very high. Do I have a leak?

    A sudden increase in usage may indicate a hidden leak. Checking your water meter when no water is running can help confirm this. We use acoustic detection to locate hidden leaks accurately.

  • Do you service commercial properties in Townsville?

    Yes, we provide plumbing services for commercial, industrial, and body corporate properties across Townsville with minimal disruption to operations.

  • Are your plumbers licensed and insured?

    Yes, we are fully QBCC licensed and insured, and all work is completed by qualified professionals.

  • Do you provide written quotes for non-emergency work?

    Yes, we provide clear written quotes for planned plumbing work and installations. We also offer a price-beat guarantee on comparable quotes.
