Who we are
Meet the team
covering Gladesville
Licensed plumbers who look before they tell you what your pipes are, because in this suburb the honest answer changes street by street.
Licensed plumbers who look before they tell you what your pipes are, because in this suburb the honest answer changes street by street.
Ring and a plumber answers. Not an operator taking details to hand to whoever is free, and not an overflow service elsewhere.
The habit that matters here is refusing to generalise. Gladesville grew around a large institutional landholding released in stages over a very long period, so streets a few hundred metres apart can be decades apart in age and in what went into the ground with them. A plumber who tells you your material and its age over the phone is describing an average, not your house.
Price agreed before we start, licence number and ABN on the quote, and a written lifetime workmanship warranty over the work itself.
NSW Plumbing Licence 368473C, checkable on the Fair Trading public register. Unlicensed plumbing is illegal in NSW and voids a home insurance claim.
Fully insured, work to the Australian Standards, and a written lifetime workmanship warranty. Gas work carries a Certificate of Compliance as standard.
Our work is reviewed publicly, and those are worth more than anything we could write about ourselves on this page.
A working plumbing business rather than a brand with subcontractors behind it. Whoever prices the job is whoever turns up to do it.
The rule that matters most here is not guessing. In a suburb built in one decade you can generalise and usually be right. In this one you cannot, so we look, and we say what we found rather than what is typical.
“I would rather spend twenty minutes finding out than an afternoon fixing the wrong thing.”
The suburb grew around the Gladesville Hospital site, originally the Tarban Creek Lunatic Asylum, which opened in 1838 and operated for roughly 150 years. Land came out around it in stages, and that is why the housing has no single era.
Streets a few hundred metres apart can be decades apart in age, and in the drainage that went in when they were built.
In a one-decade suburb that would be a forecast. Here it usually tells you about that house and nothing about yours.
Tennyson Point, Putney and Huntleys Point were taken up for the water rather than the land, on their own timetable.
Anyone quoting a material and an age over the phone is describing an average rather than your property.
Recent high-density redevelopment, which is a completely different building stock from the houses behind it.
Sydney water is soft. A storage unit that has given up here has usually lost its sacrificial anode or an element.
Rather than dating your plumbing from your street.
Agreed before we start, unchanged unless you approve a revision in writing.
What is actually on your property, in writing where it matters.
Open 24 hours, 7 days, with nothing added for nights, weekends or public holidays.
