What we find in Thornlands

Follow the manufacturer's service schedule for your unit - it is in the manual and it varies by type. Most units we attend have never been serviced at all.

Thornlands in detail

The Logan River 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 Thornlands

Access in Thornlands is rarely the issue - there is room to park and room to work. The distance from the street to the fault is what takes the time.

Getting to Thornlands

It is a regular run for us, and we quote a real arrival window rather than a hopeful one. Cleveland, Victoria Point, Mount Cotton and Sheldon sit on the same daily routes as Thornlands.

Before you call us

If the unit is leaking, turn off the water at its isolation valve and the power or gas at the switch or valve, then call. A leaking tank does not stop on its own and the water has to go somewhere. Before you call, find the data plate on the unit. It is a sticker or metal plate with the brand, the model number and usually the year. Reading that out on the phone means the right parts come with us rather than being ordered after a wasted visit.

What happens when we arrive

The visit starts with a diagnosis rather than a quote for a new unit. Components get tested individually, and if the fault is a part we carry, the job finishes there.

After the job

After the repair we test it properly and then tell you plainly what caused the problem. Knowing the cause is what turns a repair into a solution.

How we quote

Pricing on Thornlands jobs is settled before the work begins. We do not revise a quote mid-job without talking to you first, and you decide what happens next.

What affects the price

Installation is notifiable work and the lodgement is included. You should not be charged separately for paperwork that is a legal requirement of the job. Rebates change and vary by system and circumstance. We will tell you what we know and point you at the current scheme rather than quoting you a number we cannot stand behind.

How we do it

We report what we found rather than just confirming the job is done. An anode at the end of its life is information you need.

Preventive work in Thornlands

Preventive stormwater work in Thornlands is worth scheduling. With the Logan River 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

Follow the manufacturer's schedule for your unit - it is usually in the manual and it varies by type. Most systems we find have never been serviced at all, which is why they fail early.

Most manufacturers require servicing at stated intervals for the warranty to hold. Skipping it can cost you the warranty as well as the unit.

A tank full of sediment takes more energy to heat, so removing it helps. It will not transform a failing unit, and we will say so if that is what you have.

If the tank is sound, yes. If it has already corroded through, no, and we will tell you which you have rather than taking the money.

Yes, with acoustic and thermal detection rather than opening walls. We locate the fault first and quote the repair second.

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. We are QBCC licensed and insured, and work in Thornlands is carried out to the Queensland Plumbing and Wastewater Code with Redland City Council as the assessing authority.
