What we do

Our Plumbing Services

Below are the nine service categories our licensed team is set up to deliver locally, all booked through one 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 in the area.

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 delivered by our blocked drains team across the older Housing Trust street grids, 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 property 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 detached cottages and newer renewal 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, corroded line, or hidden internal 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 Davoren Park Homes Need from Their Plumber

Gazetted in November 1993 by merging the former Elizabeth Field with the northern part of Elizabeth West, the suburb is built on Housing Trust stock laid down from the mid-1950s into the 1960s as low-cost housing for the Elizabeth satellite town. The dominant pattern is single-storey brick and brick-veneer detached cottages on standard suburban blocks, with sizeable pockets of original Housing Trust homes still in service alongside newer infill from the Playford North urban renewal program running since 2007 across the Peachey Belt. The original cottages were piped in galvanised steel as standard, and surviving properties still hit recurring pinhole leaks, rust scale, and pressure loss as the galv ages out. The 1950s and 1960s Housing Trust sewer connections were laid in earthenware clay, and the original joints around the Mitchell Street and Peachey Road blocks crack and offset as the ground moves on Adelaide Plains clay soils. Many pre-renewal cottages still run their first or second-generation gas fittings and meter assemblies from the post-war Housing Trust era, and the older connectors, regulators, and isolation cocks no longer meet current standards when a hot water unit or cooker is replaced. Older housing stock not yet replaced under renewal commonly runs storage hot water units decades into service, with tank corrosion, anode failure, and element issues turning up across the pre-1980 properties together. Stormwater infrastructure across the older Housing Trust sections was sized for the original lower-density layout, and infill subdivision plus the closely-spaced renewal estates now push the same property drains and council connections harder during northern Adelaide downpours. Streets such as Peachey Road, Stebonheath Road, Mitchell Street, Swallowcliffe Road, Mandeville Street, Longbridge Road, Bishopstone Road, Petherton Road, Heytsebury Avenue, and Skewes Street carry the bulk of the local stock, with The Fields Shopping Centre, Davoren Park Primary School, Swallowcliffe School P-6, Kalara Oval, Arura Reserve, and the Playford Operations Centre anchoring the streetscape under the City of Playford.

Emergency? We answer 24/7

When Emergency Plumbing Strikes After Hours

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 a Housing Trust cottage, renewal-era family home, or rental property. 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 Around Here

Most urgent calls across the brick and brick-veneer Housing Trust stock follow predictable patterns shaped by galvanised water supply on the original cottages, clay drainage joints failing on Adelaide Plains soils, ageing storage hot water units past replacement age, and stormwater infrastructure undersized for the renewal-era infill density. These are the four jobs we resolve most often:

01

Corroded galvanised water service across original 1950s and 1960s cottages

Original Housing Trust homes were piped in galvanised steel as standard, and surviving properties still hit recurring pinhole leaks, rust scale, and pressure loss as the galv ages out and the internal bore narrows from decades in the ground.

02

Cracked clay drainage on the Mitchell Street and Peachey Road blocks

The 1950s and 1960s Housing Trust sewer connections were laid in earthenware clay, and the original joints around the older streets crack and offset as the ground moves on Adelaide Plains clay soils and backs up under the slab.

03

Ageing storage hot water units past replacement age across pre-1980 stock

Older housing stock not yet replaced under Playford North renewal commonly runs storage hot water units decades into service, with tank corrosion, anode failure, and element issues now turning up across the pre-1980 properties together.

04

Stormwater overload through the older Housing Trust street sections

Stormwater infrastructure across the older sections was sized for the original lower-density layout, and infill subdivision plus closely-spaced renewal estates now push the same property drains and council connections harder during northern downpours.

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.
