Licensed plumbers in Shailer Park
A dripping tap is the cheapest plumbing job there is and the easiest to put off.
5-star rated on Google
Shailer Park sits around 9.4 km east of the Logan Central.
It also runs continuously, which means the water it wastes adds up long before the washer does.
A standard house gives us everything we need for a tap repair in one trip.
At about 1,504 people per sq km over 8.1 sq km, Shailer Park is established suburban housing with pockets of newer infill.
On Shailer Park's larger blocks we can usually get the van close. What slows a job here is the length of pipe between the house and the main, not getting through the gate.
Our Shailer Park runs also take in Mount Cotton, Cornubia, Loganholme and Tanah Merah.
Note whether the problem affects hot water, cold water, or both. Both means the fault is before the hot water unit; hot only means it is after it. That one observation narrows the search considerably. Clear access to the affected area if you safely can - under the sink, in the cupboard, around the meter. The repair itself is often short; getting to it is what takes the time.
We confirm the fault before touching the building. Cutting into a wall to go looking is the expensive approach and it is usually unnecessary.
When the work is finished you get told what we found, what we did and whether anything else is worth watching. If there is nothing, we say so - we would rather be the ones who told you the system was fine than the ones who found work that was not there.
Emergency plumbing – give the experts a call
Every Shailer Park job is quoted up front. If opening something up reveals a bigger problem, we stop and explain the options rather than pressing on and adding it to the bill.
Detection and repair are usually the same visit, and the repair is quoted once the fault is located rather than estimated in advance. Guessing at a price before knowing where the leak is does neither of us any favours. Older galvanised supply changes the conversation. If the section that failed is corroded along its length, repairing one joint buys you months rather than years, and we will give you the price for both the patch and the section replacement.
We carry common washers, spindles and cartridges, so most taps are repaired in one visit. Designer and imported fittings sometimes need a part ordered and we say so immediately.
Most Shailer Park emergencies had a warning. Servicing the hot water system, clearing the stormwater and acting on a slow drain removes most of them.
Plumbing in Shailer Park is approved through Logan City Council under the Queensland Plumbing and Wastewater Code. We handle the lodgement.
It runs continuously, so the water cost adds up long before the washer does. It is also the cheapest plumbing job there is, so there is no good reason to live with it.
Yes. Garden taps take weather and hose pressure and wear faster than indoor fittings, and they are quick to repair or replace.
The spindle or the cartridge has worn. Forcing it damages the seat, which turns a small repair into a larger one.
Enough to notice on a quarterly bill, and it runs every hour of every day. It is also the cheapest repair on our list.
Notifiable work has to be lodged with Logan City Council, and anything connecting to sewer or stormwater needs approval first. We handle that paperwork as part of the job.
For common work we will give you a range on the phone and a fixed price once we have seen it. We do not start without you agreeing to the number.
For water, the mains tap at the meter. For gas, the valve at the meter, and no naked flames. Tell us what you have shut off when you call.
