About plumbing in Yeronga

It is about 8.3 km south of the Brisbane CBD.

Leaking Taps in Yeronga

Washers and spindles are the repair, and the fittings are sometimes imperial rather than metric.

Brisbane City Council is the local authority for Yeronga, postcode 4104.

Our depot is at Marsden, about 19.3 km north-west of Yeronga.

What we find in Yeronga

In detached housing we isolate at the meter and work without constraints.

Yeronga in detail

The Brisbane River shapes the local drainage. Low-lying blocks near it see surcharge first when the rain is heavy enough.

Getting access in Yeronga

Blocks in Yeronga are generous, which usually means clear access but a longer walk from the van to the problem. We bring what the job needs rather than making two trips.

Getting to Yeronga

We service the suburb daily, and we will tell you honestly on the phone how long we will be. St Lucia, Fairfield, Annerley and Yeerongpilly sit on the same daily routes as Yeronga.

Before you call us

Check the meter with every tap closed. If the dial or the smallest digit is still turning, water is going somewhere it should not, and that is worth telling us before we arrive. It is the single most reliable test there is. 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.

What happens when we arrive

Everything we open gets photographed before and after. It is useful to you, and if there is an insurance claim it is what they ask for.

After the job

A repair in an older property often reveals something about the rest of the house. We pass that on rather than filing it, because planning a replacement beats reacting to the next failure.

How we quote

Every Yeronga 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.

What affects the price

Every quote is given before work begins. If what we find behind the wall changes the job, we stop and talk to you rather than continuing and adding a line to the invoice. 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.

How we do it

Every tap we touch gets tested under pressure and checked for weeping at the base as well as the spout.

Approvals and compliance

Because Yeronga is in the Brisbane City Council area, sewer and stormwater connections need council sign-off. We arrange it.

For council matters, Yeronga falls within the Tennyson ward. That is the office involved in anything touching the main or the footpath.

Frequently asked questions

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.

Enough to notice on a quarterly bill, and it runs every hour of every day. It is also the cheapest repair on our list.

Usually a worn washer or a loose jumper valve vibrating as water passes it. It is a repair rather than a replacement in most cases.

A leaking base can, because the water goes into the cabinetry rather than down the drain. A dripping spout mostly costs you money.

There is a cost to getting a licensed plumber to your door in Yeronga, and we tell you what it is before we leave. No surprises on the invoice.

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.

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.
