Plumber and gas fitter in Como

Old character homes, sixties flats and new infill all on the same street. The flats are where the after-hours calls come from — a burst in one unit that four owners have an opinion about. We fix it first and sort the paperwork after.

What Como rings us about

The three faults this suburb produces more than its share of, which is a function of when it was built rather than of anything anybody did wrong.

  • Burst pipes in units

  • Blocked stacks

  • Emergency isolation

What we fix here

Every service, across Como

The same six things, the same published prices, and no travel surcharge for being at one end of the run rather than the other.

  • Right now

    Blocked drains

    Jetted clear, then a camera down the line so you find out why it blocked instead of booking us again in six months.

    Gas fitting

    Cooktops, heaters, hot water and gas leak testing by a licensed gas fitter — a separate licence, and we hold it.

    A leak two floors below where it started

    Water in a ground floor unit that turned out to be a failed riser connection on level three. Isolated the same night, repaired within the week, reported to the council of owners.

Getting to you

20 minutes

The yard is in Willetton, which is the reason this list stops where it does. We would rather cover twelve suburbs properly than forty on a map.

For an emergency

You get a time on the phone rather than a four-hour window, and a text if we are running behind. Typically under an hour into Como.

For booked work

Booked against the River run, so you get a morning or an afternoon rather than a day. Nothing extra for a Saturday.
