What we find in Ormiston

Underground supply failures on big blocks waste enormous amounts of water quietly. We locate them before digging.

Ormiston in detail

Hillards Creek runs through the area. Properties near it deal with stormwater that has somewhere to go in a normal week and nowhere to go in a heavy one.

Getting access in Ormiston

In Ormiston there is room to work. We just need to know where the meter sits and whether anything is between us and it.

Getting to Ormiston

You will get a straight answer about arrival time when you call. Cleveland, Alexandra Hills and Wellington Point sit on the same daily routes as Ormiston.

Before you call us

The single most useful thing you can do before calling is find your water meter and the tap beside it. On most properties it is at the front boundary, sometimes under a hinged cover. Knowing where it is, and being able to turn it, is what stops a leak becoming a floor replacement. If the water is near anything electrical, or has come through a ceiling, switch the power off at the board as well and tell us when you call. We would rather arrive knowing that than find out on site.

What happens when we arrive

On arrival we isolate the water and establish where it is actually escaping, which is rarely where it is appearing. Acoustic equipment does most of that work and keeps the repair small.

After the job

We leave the area clean and we leave you with a clear account of the work. Nothing is left vague for a later invoice to explain.

How we quote

Quoting works the same way on every Ormiston job: we look, we price it, you agree, we do it. Anything we find along the way gets raised before it gets charged.

What affects the price

Making good - plaster, tiles, concrete - is usually a separate trade and a separate cost. We tell you upfront what we will and will not be putting back. The pressure test at the end is included, not extra. A repair that has not been tested is not a repair we would invoice for.

How we do it

After the repair the line gets tested under pressure. A repair that has not been tested is a repair you hear about again.

Preventive work in Ormiston

Preventive stormwater work in Ormiston is worth scheduling. With Hillards Creek as the outlet, a blocked pit backs water up onto the block instead.

Approvals and compliance

Redland City Council assesses plumbing work here, and the paperwork is our responsibility rather than yours.

Frequently asked questions

Corrosion in older galvanised supply, ground movement, tree roots, water hammer from fast-closing fittings, and perished flexible hoses. Which one it was changes what we recommend afterwards.

That is between you and your insurer, but the documentation will not be the holdup. We provide photographs, a written report and cause-of-damage detail as a matter of course.

Often, in older pipework. A joint that has corroded through usually has neighbours in the same condition, and we will tell you honestly what we can see.

If water is near electrical fittings or has come through a ceiling, yes - at the switchboard. Tell us when you call so we know what we are arriving to.

We quote the job before we start, so the price you agree to is the price on the invoice. Ask on the phone and we will tell you what the attendance costs before we leave the depot.

Yes. Gas work in Ormiston is licensed work - appliance installation, leak testing and certification. If you can smell gas, turn it off at the meter and call before anything else.

Usually. We clear and camera first, and excavation only happens when the pipe itself has failed. You see the footage before we recommend anything.
